Feistel and SPN are the two main structures in a block cipher. Feistel is a symmetric structure which has the same structure in encryption and decryption, but SPN is not a symmetric structure. In this paper, we propose a SPN which has a symmetric structure in encryption and decryption. The whole operations of proposed algorithm are composed of the even numbers of N rounds where the first half of them, 1 to N/2 round, applies a right function and the last half of them, (N+1)/2 to N round, employs an inverse function. And a symmetry layer is located in between the right function layer and the inverse function layer. In this paper, AES encryption and decryption function are selected for the right function and the inverse function, respectively. The symmetric layer is composed with simple matrix and round key addition. Due to the simplicity of the symmetric SPN structure in hardware implementation, the proposed modified AES is believed to construct a safe and efficient cipher in Smart Card and RFID environments where electronic chips are built in.

Lossless encryption methods are more applicable than lossy encryption methods when marginal distortion is not tolerable. In this research, the author propose a novel lossless symmetric key encryption/decryption technique. In the proposed algorithm, the image is transformed into the frequency domain using the lifting wavelet transform, then the image sub-bands are encrypted in a such way that guarantees a secure, reliable, and an unbreakable form. The encryption involves scattering the distinguishable frequency data in the image using a reversible weighting factor amongst the rest of the frequencies. The algorithm is designed to shuffle and reverse the sign of each frequency in the transformed image before the image frequencies are transformed back to the pixel domain. The results show a total deviation in pixel values between the original and encrypted image. The decryption algorithm reverses the encryption process and restores the image to its original form. The proposed algorithm is evaluated using standard security and statistical methods; results show that the proposed work is resistant to most known attacks and more secure than other algorithms in the cryptography domain.

This paper proposes the more various key generation algorithms than existing method and the DRM encryption system supporting the higher security than the existing systems which do not store a symmetric key made by the key generation algorithm in a server. Also, we propose a client security agent system which decrypts a data by analogized key. We designed and implemented the proposed system And, we tested the video data files with the various sizes to evaluate the performance of our system Our experiment results show that the delay time which includes an encryption and decryption time was significantly reduced through our proposed scheme.

Security of voice communication content in the military's voice communication network will be essential. There is no proposed study on voice data security of military communication networks, but security of voice data will be essential when communicating. This paper is about to an encryption/decryption technique of digital voice data to provide security in case of voice calls in a military communication network. In addition, by using a symmetric key algorithm using AES, a secret key is required, and it has the function of transmitting this key to the receiving end before setting it as a voice call, solving the difficulty of distributing the secret key. This paper proposes a security technique for digital voice data that applies a synchronous stream encryption method that is relatively easy to restore synchronization even in the event of loss of synchronization among stream encryption techniques.

The CEDA(Certified E-Document Authority) is a reliable third party that deposit electronic document having legal effects securely, and verify contents of document or transmission. This paper focuses on a function of secure transmission among several important functions, and implements public key encryption system for secure transmission when server and user communicate for image transmission. This paper follows a standard fundamental rule of X.509 in ITU-T, and it uses symmetric encryption algorithm to raise speed of a large data operation. A key of symmetric encryption algorithm is encrypted by private key in public key system, it protects to be modified using digital signature for data integrity. Also it uses certificates for mutual authentication.

Encryption of digital images has been requested various fields. In the meantime, many algorithms based on a text - based encryption algorithm have been proposed. In this paper, we propose a method of encryption in wavelet transform domain to utilize the characteristics of digital image. In particular, wavelet transform is used to reduce the association between the encrypted image and the original image. Wavelet packet transformations can be decomposed into more subband images than wavelet transform, and various position permutation, numerical transformation, and visual transformation are performed on the coefficients of this subband image. As a result, this paper proposes a method that satisfies the characteristics of high encryption strength than the conventional wavelet transform and reversibility. This method also satisfies the lossless symmetric key encryption and decryption algorithm. The performance of the proposed method is confirmed by visual and quantitative. Experimental results show that the visually encrypted image is seen as a completely different signal from the original image. We also confirmed that the proposed method shows lower values of cross correlation than conventional wavelet transform. And PSNR has a sufficiently high value in terms of decoding performance of the proposed method. In this paper, we also proposed that the degree of correlation of the encrypted image can be controlled by adjusting the number of wavelet transform steps according to the characteristics of the image.

Cryptography aims at transmitting secure data over an unsecure network in coded version so that only the intended recipient can analyze it. Communication through messages, emails, or various other modes requires high security so as to maintain the confidentiality of the content. This paper deals with IDEA's shortcoming of generating weak keys. If these keys are used for encryption and decryption may result in the easy prediction of ciphertext corresponding to the plaintext. For applying genetic approach, which is well-known optimization technique, to the weak keys, we obtained a definite solution to convert the weaker keys to stronger ones. The chances of generating a weak key in IDEA are very rare, but if it is produced, it could lead to a huge risk of attacks being made on the key, as well as on the information. Hence, measures have been taken to safeguard the key and to ensure the privacy of information.

Plaintext and key are independent in the existing block cipher. Also, encryption/decryption is performed by using structural features. Therefore, the external environment of suggested mixed cryptographic algorithm is identical with the existing ones, but internally, features of the existing block cipher were meant to be removed by making plaintext and key into dependent functions. Also, to decrease the loads on the authentication process, authentication add-on with dependent characteristic was included to increase the use of symmetric cryptographic algorithm. Through the simulation where the proposed cryptosystem was implemented in the chip level, we show that our system using the shorter key length than the length of the plaintext is two times faster than the existing systems.

The worldwide spread of the Internet and the digital information revolution have resulted in a rapid increase in the use and transmission of multimedia information due to the rapid development of communication technologies. It is important to protect images in order to prevent problems such as piracy and illegal distribution. To solve this problem, I propose a new digital color image encryption algorithm in this paper. I design a new pseudo-random number generator based on 1D five-neighborhood maximum length cellular automata (FN-MLCA) to change the pixel values of the plain image into unpredictable values. And then I use a 3D chaotic cat map to effectively shuffle the positions of the image pixel. In this paper, I propose a method to construct a new MLCA by modeling 1D FN-MLCA. This result is an extension of 1D 3-neighborhood CA and shows that more 1D MLCAs can be synthesized. The safety of the proposed algorithm is verified through various statistical analyses.
