For communication in the wireless networking, transmission of data over network sometimes is not safe. In such case security of network is one of the essential aspect in computer networking. Cryptography is antechnique of transforming an plaindata into encrypted one, and then retransform that encrypted data back to its plain (original) form. In this we authenticate the sender to whom you want to send that data file. There are two different techniques of cryptography, symmetric key cryptography (called public-key cryptography) algorithms and asymmetric key cryptography (called public-key cryptography) algorithms. There are also various algorithms for encrypted data using either public or private key or both. This paper describes RSA algorithm which first convert our data into other form and then encrypt it using RSA public key encryption at sender side & at receiver side, first it authenticate the receiver then decrypt the data/ file and convert into original form.

Cryptography is an essential and effective method for securing information’s and data. Several symmetric and asymmetric key cryptographic algorithms are used for securing the data. Symmetric key cryptography uses the same key for both encryption and decryption. Asymmetric Key Cryptography also known as public key cryptography uses two different keys – a public key and a private key. The public key is used for encryption and the private key is used for decryption. In this paper, certain asymmetric key algorithms such as RSA, Rabin, Diffie-Hellman, ElGamal and Elliptical curve cryptosystem, their security aspects and the processes involved in design and implementation of these algorithms are examined.

It is challenging to secure a wireless sensor network (WSN) because its inexpensive, tiny sensor nodes do not have the necessary processing capability, memory capacity, and battery life to take advantage of the existing security solutions for traditional networks. Existing security solutions for wireless sensor networks are mostly based on symmetric key cryptography with the assumption that sensor nodes are embedded with secret, temporary startup keys before deployment thus avoiding any use of computationally demanding public key algorithms altogether. However, symmetric key cryptography alone cannot satisfactorily provide all security needs for wireless sensor networks. It is still problematic to replenish an operational wireless sensor network with new sensor nodes securely. Current research on public key cryptography for WSNs shows some promising results, particularly in the use of elliptic curve cryptography and identity based encryption for WSNs. Although security is essential for WSNs, it can complicate some crucial operations of a WSN like data aggregation or in-network data processing that can be affected by a particular security protocol. Accordingly, in this chapter, the authors summarize, discuss, and evaluate recent symmetric key based results reported in literature on sensor network security protocols such as for key establishment, random key pre-distribution, data confidentiality, data integrity, and broadcast authentication as well as expose limitations and issues related to those solutions for WSNs. The authors also present significant advancement in public key cryptography for WSNs with promising results from elliptic curve cryptography and identity based encryption as well as their limitations for WSNs. In addition,they also discuss recently identified threats and their corresponding countermeasures in WSNs.

It is challenging to secure a wireless sensor network (WSN) because of its use of inexpensive sensor nodes of very limited processing capability, memory capacity, and battery life that preclude using traditional security solutions. Due to perceived excessive computational and architectural overhead, public key algorithms are altogether avoided for WSNs. Currently security in WSNs is provided using only symmetric key cryptography, but it requires keys to be embedded in sensor nodes before deployment and the entire network has to go through a key establishment phase after deployment. Accordingly, in this chapter, we summarize, discuss, and evaluate recent results reported in literature on sensor network security protocols such as for key establishment, random key pre-distribution, data confidentiality, and broadcast authentication. In addition, we discuss promising research results in public key cryptography for WSNs, particularly related to elliptic curve cryptography and its application for identity based encryption.

ABSTRACTIt is now commonplace that secrecy must be truly enhanced and tightened as it weighs the emergence of the latest technology that is growing rapidly. Of course an agency, group, or individual have data that is confidential and do not want to be known by other parties hence the need for a system capable of securing the data. For this reason this research aims to create Cryptography application by applying a combination of Hill Cipher and RSA algorithm, Cryptography is also called coding language and I apply Hill Cipher because it is a classical method that uses multiplication for each encoded character while RSA is a modern method that has 2 keys ie key public and secret key where the public key is used for encryption and secret key to retranslate the original form. By applying a combination of classical and modern methods it can be more secure so it is more difficult to be solved by unwanted parties.Keyword : Data Security, Cryptography, Hill Cipher, RSAABSTRAKDi masa sekarang sudah menjadi hal yang biasa bahwa kerahasiaan harus benar – benar ditingkatkan dan diperketat karena menimbang kemunculan teknologi terbaru yang semakin pesat berkembang. Tentu sebuah Instansi, kelompok, ataupun individu memiliki data yang bersifat rahasia dan tidak ingin diketahui oleh pihak lain maka dari itu diperlukannya system yang mampu mengamankan data tersebut. Untuk itulah penelitian ini bertujuan membuat aplikasi Kriptografi dengan menerapkan kombinasi Algoritma Hill Cipher dan RSA, Kriptografi juga disebut bahasa persandian dan saya menerapkan Hill Cipher karena merupakan metode klasik yang menggunakan perkalian untuk tiap karakter yang disandikan sedangkan RSA adalah metode modern yang memiliki 2 kunci yaitu kunci publik dan kunci rahasia dimana kunci publik digunakan untuk penyandian dan kunci rahasia untuk menterjemahkan kembali k bentuk asli. Dengan menerapkan kombinasi metode klasik dan modern ini dapat lebih mengamankan sehingga lebih sulit untuk dapat di pecahkan oleh pihak – pihak yang tidak diinginkan.Kata Kunci : Pengamanan Data, Kriptografi, Hill Cipher, RSA.

Symmetric-key cryptography is a classical cryptography in which both sender and receiver use the same key K to encrypt and decrypt the message. The main challenge between sender and receiver is to agree upon the secret-key which should not be revealed to public. Key management is the major issue in symmetric-key cryptosystem. To avoid these, a novel approach in generating the keystream Ks for any symmetric-key algorithms using U-matrix is proposed in this paper. The advantage of this method is generation of key K from Ks is based on some deterministic procedure which is then applied to DES algorithm and K is not necessarily remembered by both sender and receiver. Further, in each round different key is used as opposed to usage of single key in classical DES. Experimental results clearly show the security is increased when it is compared with classical DES.
