The file security function, which this paper suggests, restricts the access of an unauthorized users by using password algorithm and saving file. Saved files that are encrypted are read by decrypting them with decryption algorithm. These features are user interface to design the program for user friendly. The security function implements both file encryption and decryption programs and tests whether the experiment works or not. In addition, when a decryption is progressed and the settings of between decryption and encryption are different each other, the security function also checks the possibility of decryption. We can enhance the security on important files stored in Windows servers or personal computers by developing this program.

We propose a method of encryption and decryption of binary data using 2-step phase-shifting digital interferometry. This technique reduces the number of interferograms in the phase-shifting interferometry. The binary data has been expressed with random code and random phase. We remove the dc-term of the phase-shifting digital interferogram to restore the original binary data. Simulation results shows that the proposed technique can be used for binary data encryption and decryption.

An integrated crypto engine for encryption and decryption of AES algorithm based on unified data-path architecture is efficiently designed and implemented in this paper. In order to unify the design of encryption and decryption, internal steps in single round is adjusted so as to operate with columns after row operation is completed and efficient method for a buffer is developed to simplify the Shift Rows operation. Also, only one S-box is used for both key expansion and crypto operation and Key-Box saving expended key is introduced provide the key required in encryption and decryption. The functional simulation based on ModelSim simulator shows that 164 clocks are required to process the data of 128bits in the proposed engine. In addition, the proposed engine is implemented with 6,801 gates by using Xilinx Synthesizer. This demonstrate that 40% gates savings is achieved in the proposed engine, compared to individual designs of encryption and decryption engine.

HIGHT is an 64-bit block cipher, which is suitable for low power and ultra-light implementation that are used in the network that needs the consideration of security aspects. This paper presents a parallel key scheduler that generates the whitening keys and subkeys simultaneously for both encryption and decryption processes. We construct the reverse LFSR and key generation blocks to generate the keys for decryption process. Then, the new key scheduler is made by sharing the common logics for encryption and decryption processes to minimize the increase in hardware complexity. From the simulation results, the logic size is increased 1.31 times compared to the conventional HIGHT. However, the performance of HIGHT including the proposed key scheduler can be increased by two times compared to the conventional counterpart.

A threshold decryption scheme is a multi-party public key cryptosystem that allows any sufficiently large subset of participants to decrypt a ciphertext, but disallows the decryption otherwise. When performing a threshold decryption, a third party is often involved to guarantee fairness among the participants. To maintain the security of the protocol as high as possible, it is desirable to lower the level of trust and the amount of information given to the third party. In this paper, we present a threshold decryption scheme which allows the anonymity of the participants as well as the fairness by employing a semi-trusted third party (STTP) which follows the protocol properly with the exception that it keeps a record of all its intermediate computations. Our solution preserves the security and fairness of the previous scheme and reveals no information about the identities of the participants and the plaintext even though an attacker is allowed to access the storage of the STTP.

RC6 which has different algorithm of encryption and decryption has been implemented to have the same algorithm between encryption' and decryption though inserting symmetry layer using simple rotate and logical operation. That means the half of whole RC6 round uses encryption algorithm and the rest of it uses decryption one and symmetry layer has been put into the middle of encryption and decryption. The proposed RC6 algorithm has no difference with the original one in the speed of process. However it is quite safe because by inserting symmetry layer the path of high probability which is needed for differential and linear analysis is cut oft so that it is hard to be analyzed. The proposed algorithm can be easily applied to the algorithm which has different encryption and decryption an make it same, and it can be good idea to be used to design a new block cipher algorithm.

Sharing data by multiple users on the public storage, e.g., the cloud, is considered to be efficient because the cloud provides on-demand computing service at anytime and anywhere. Secure data sharing is achieved by fine-grained access control. Existing symmetric and public key encryption schemes are not suitable for secure data sharing because they support 1-to-1 relationship between a ciphertext and a secret key. Attribute based encryption supports fine-grained access control, however it incurs linearly increasing ciphertexts as the number of attributes increases. Additionally, the decryption process has high computational cost so that it is not applicable in case of resource-constrained environments. In this study, we propose an efficient attribute-based secure data sharing scheme with outsourceable decryption. The proposed scheme guarantees constant-size ciphertexts irrespective of the number of attributes. In case of static attributes, the computation cost to the user is reduced by delegating approximately 95.3% of decryption operations to the more powerful storage systems, whereas 72.3% of decryption operations are outsourced in terms of dynamic attributes.

Since modem embedded systems need to access, manipulate or store sensitive information, it requires being equipped with cryptographic file systems. However, cryptographic file systems result in poor performance so that they have not been widely adapted to embedded systems. Most cryptographic file systems degrade the performance unnecessarily because of system architecture. This paper proposes ISEA (Indexed and Separated Encryption Approach) that supports for encryption/decryption in system architecture and removes redundant performance loss. ISEA carries out encryption and decryption at different layers according to page cache layer. Encryption is carried out at lower layer than page cache layer while decryption at upper layer. ISEA stores the decrypted data in page cache so that it can be reused in followed I/O request without decryption. ISEA provides page-indexing which divides page cache into cipher blocks and manages it by a block. It decrypts pages partially so that it can eliminate unnecessary decryption. In synthesized experiment of read/write with various cache hit rates, it gives results suggesting that ISEA has improved the performance of encryption file system efficiently.

Probability of decryption failure of a public key cryptography based on LWE(learning with errors) is determined by its architecture and parameter settings. Since large decryption failure probability leads to attacks[1] on scheme as well as degradation of performance, TiGER[2], a Ring-LWE(R)-based KEM proposed for the first round of KpqC, tried to reduce the decryption failure probability by using error correction code Xef and D2 encoding method. However, D'Anvers et al. has shown that the commonly assumed independence of each bit error is not established since in the case of an encryption scheme based on Ring-LWE(R) using an error correction code, there is error dependency which is not negligible[3]. In this paper, since TiGER does not consider the error dependency, we calcualte the decryption failure probability of TiGER by considering the error dependency. In addition, we found that the bit error probability is incorrectly calculated in TiGER, so we present the correct calculation.

Dissemination of XML data on the internet could breach the privacy of data providers unless access to the disseminated XML data is carefully controlled. Recently, the methods using encryption have been proposed for such access control. However, in these methods, the performance of processing queries has not been addressed. A query processor cannot identify the contents of encrypted XML data unless the data are decrypted. This limitation incurs overhead of decrypting the parts of the XML data that would not contribute to the query result. In this paper, we propose the notion of query-aware decryption for efficient processing of queries against encrypted XML data. Query-aware decryption allows us to decrypt only those parts that would contribute to the query result. For this purpose, we disseminate an encrypted XML index along with the encrypted XML data. This index, when decrypted, informs us where the query results are located in the encrypted XML data, thus preventing unnecessary decryption for other parts of the data. Since the size of this index is much smaller than that of the encrypted XML data, the cost of decrypting this index is negligible compared with that for unnecessary decryption of the data itself. The experimental results show that our method improves the performance of query processing by up to 6 times compared with those of existing methods. Finally, we formally prove that dissemination of the encrypted XML index does not compromise security.
