Networks - Ii: Development Of Symmetric Cryptosystem Using Matrices With Less Overhead On Communication Channel, Jalal F. Al-Muhtadi, Abdul Basit, Maqsood Mahmud

International Conference on Information and Communication Technologies

Many systems have been developed by mathematicians using symmetric and Asymmetric Cryptography e.g. Ceaser Cipher, Stream Ciphers, RSA, DES, IDEA, RC-4, ElGamal signatures, LFSR, Ext. Euclidean Algorithm, Lamport Signatures, Merkle Hellman Knapsack. Etc [1]. Some of them are very strong to be broken by cryptanalysts. Some are very easy and even can be broken by the measuring the frequency of alphabets in a specific cipher text. All these system carries some overhead of key with which a plain text is encrypted, for the communication channel. I thought of an idea in which product component which will be 5*1 matrix will …

International Conference on Information and Communication Technologies

Authentication, access control, encryption and auditing make up the essential elements of network security. Researchers have dedicated a large amount of efforts to implement security features that fully incorporate the use of all these elements. Currently, data networks mainly provide authentication and confidentiality services. Confidentiality alone is not able to protect the system, thus, suitable security measures must be taken. However, this security is itself an overhead which must be accounted for. A trade-off must exist between performance and security. This trade-off must be carefully managed so as not to deteriorate the systems being secured. This calls for the true …
