The security of data and information using encryption algorithms is becoming increasingly important in today's world of digital data transmission over unsecured wired and wireless communication channels. Hybrid encryption techniques combine both symmetric and asymmetric encryption methods and provide more security than public or private key encryption models. Currently, there are many techniques on the market that use a combination of cryptographic algorithms and claim to provide higher data security. Many hybrid algorithms have failed to satisfy customers in securing data and cannot prevent all types of security threats. To improve the security of digital data, it is essential to develop novel and resilient security systems as it is inevitable in the digital era. The proposed hybrid algorithm is a combination of the well-known RSA algorithm and a simple symmetric key (SSK) algorithm. The aim of this study is to develop a better encryption method using RSA and a newly proposed symmetric SSK algorithm. We believe that the proposed hybrid cryptographic algorithm provides more security and privacy.

As our community has become increasingly dependent on technology, security has become a bigger concern, which makes it more important and challenging than ever. security can be enhanced with encryption as described in this paper by combining RC6 symmetric cryptographic algorithms with RSA asymmetric algorithms, as well as the Vigenère cipher, to help manage weaknesses of RC6 algorithms by utilizing the speed, security, and effectiveness of asymmetric algorithms with the effectiveness of symmetric algorithm items as well as introducing classical algorithms, which add additional confusion to the decryption process. An analysis of the proposed encryption speed and throughput has been conducted in comparison to a variety of well-known algorithms to demonstrate the effectiveness of each algorithm.

In this paper we first propose a new cryptosystem based on our data hiding scheme (2,9,8) introduced in 2019 with high security, where encrypting and hiding are done at once, the ciphertext does not depend on the input image size as existing hybrid techniques of cryptography and steganography. We then exploit our automata approach presented in 2019 to design two algorithms for exact and approximate pattern matching on secret data encrypted by our cryptosystem. Theoretical analyses remark that these algorithms both have O(n) time complexity in the worst case, where for the approximate algorithm, we assume that it uses ⌈(1-ε)m)⌉ processors, where ε, m and n are the error of our string similarity measure and lengths of the pattern and secret data, respectively. In searchable encryption, our cryptosystem is used by users and our pattern matching algorithms are performed by cloud providers.

Our approach permits to capitalize the expert's knowledge as business rules by using an agent-based platform. The objective of our approach is to allow experts to manage the daily evolutions of business domains without having to use a technician, and to allow them to be implied, and to participate in the development of the application to accomplish the daily tasks of their work. Therefore, the manipulation of an expert's knowledge generates the need for information security and other associated technologies. The notion of cryptography has emerged as a basic concept in business rules modeling. The purpose of this paper is to present a cryptographic algorithm based approach to integrate the security aspect in business rules modeling. We propose integrating an agent-based approach in the framework. This solution utilizes a security agent with domain ontology. This agent applies an encryption/decryption algorithm to allow for the confidentiality, authenticity, and integrity of the most important rules. To increase the security of these rules, we used hybrid cryptography in order to take advantage of symmetric and asymmetric algorithms. We performed some experiments to find the best encryption algorithm, which provides improvement in terms of response time, space memory, and security.

The importance of protection for data and information is increasing by the rapid development of information communication and network. And the concern for protecting private information is also growing due to the increasing demand for lots of services by users. Asymmetric cryptosystem is the mainstream in encryption system rather than symmetric cryptosystem by above reasons. But asymmetric cryptosystem is restricted in applying fields by the reason it takes more times to process than symmetric cryptosystem. In this paper, encryption system which executes authentication works of asymmetric cryptosystem by means of symmetric cryptosystem. The proposed cryptosystem uses an algorithms combines that combines block cipherment with stream cipherment and has a high stability in aspect of secret rate by means of transition of key sequence according to the information of plaintext while symmetric/asymmetric cryptosystem conducts encipherment/deciphermeent using a fixed key. Consequently, it is very difficult to crack although unauthenticator acquires the key information. So, the proposed encryption system which has a certification function of asymmetric cryptosystem and a processing time equivalent to symmetric cryptosystems will be highly useful to authorize data or exchange important information.

인터넷이 발전하게 되면서 여러 가지 정보들을 메일, 메시지 등을 이용하여 주고받기 시작하였다. 여러 가지 정보들에는 이미지도 포함되는데, 중요한 신상정보나 설계도, 계약서 등의 정보들도 이미지 파일로 주고받는 경우가 생기게 되면서 이 이미지가 실수 또는 해킹 등의 이유로 유출되게 되었을 시 생기는 문제들이 점점 커져가고 있는 상황이다. 이미지를 주고받을 때도 유출을 방지하기 위한 여러가지 보안방법들이 중요해지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 이미지를 암호화할 수 있게 해주고 암호화를 할 때 사용한 키를 한번 더 암호화 하는 알고리즘을 설계하였다. 기존의 암호화 방식에서 AES 암호화만 이용할 대칭키가 유출될 경우 본래의 데이터도 유출되게 된다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제를 방지하기 위해 암호화에 사용된 대칭키를 한번 더 암호화하는 방법을 제안한다. 선택한 원본 이미지 파일의 데이터를 텍스트 데이터로 변환한 후 AES-256암호화를 이용하여 대칭키 암호를 사용자가 설정할 수 있게 하고 그 대칭키 암호를 이용하여 암호화한다. 이때 32바이트 길이의 대칭키를 사용하는데, 대칭키의 유출을 방지하기 위해 RSA 암호화를 이용, 비대칭키를 생성한 후 대칭키를 한번 더 암호화 한다. 암호화된 대칭키는 비대칭키를 이용 복호화할 수 있고, 암호화된 데이터는 대칭키 암호를 이용해서 원래의 데이터로 복호화가 가능하다. 이러한 방법을 사용하여 보안강도를 더 높일 수 있다.

The field of post-quantum cryptography (PQC) is an active area of research as cryptographers look for public-key cryptosystems that can resist quantum adversaries. Among those categories in PQC, code-based cryptosystem provides high security along with efficiency. Recent works on code-based cryptosystems focus on the side-channel resistant implementation since previous works have indicated the possible side-channel vulnerabilities on existing algorithms. In this paper, we recovered the secret key in HyMES(Hybrid McEliece Scheme) using a single power consumption trace. HyMES is a variant of McEliece cryptosystem that provides smaller keys and faster encryption and decryption speed. During the decryption, the algorithm computes the parity-check matrix which is required when computing the syndrome. We analyzed HyMES using the fact that the joint distributions of nonlinear functions used in this process depend on the secret key. To the best of our knowledge, we were the first to propose the side-channel analysis based on joint distributions of leakages on public-key cryptosystem.
