In this project we develop an application for translation of information in any language to Cipher/Encrypted , which otherwise is done by using different software in the present scenario. Our attempt is to overcome the various shortcomings in different software available in the market and develop the best (Encryptor/Decryptor) with most useful algorithms. We explore and implement Tiny Algorith, Neural Algorithm, A hybrid blend Neural and Tiny algorithm, Rijandel Agorithm, Stegnography (for Image and Audio files), Video Encryption and Decryption, and a Chat server for secret Communication oiver the software.

2. INTRODUCTION
• CRYPTOGRAPHY :
The practice and study of techniques for secure
communication in the presence of third parties
(called adversaries). More generally, it is about
constructing and analyzing protocols that
overcome the influence of adversaries and
which are related to various aspects of
information security such as data
confidentiality, data integrity, authentication,
and non-repudiation.

3. INTRODUCTION..
• NETWORK SECURITY
Provisions and policies to prevent and monitor
unauthorized access, misuse, modification, or
denial of a computer network and network-
accessible resources. It involves authorization
of access to data in a network, which is
controlled by the network administrator.

4. NOVELTY OF CONCEPT
We have attempted to club the various known
algorithms of Cryptography in a manner, so that
the shortcomings of one can be compensated by
the other and this way we can get a secure and
optimized algorithm for protecting our files from
hacking.

5. ALGORITHMS USED
Till now, we have implemented the following algorithms
for securing file sharing:
•Tiny Algorithm
•Image Steganography
•Rijndael Algorithm
•Video Cryptography via DCT Algorithm
•Audio Stegnography
•Hybrid Port Knocking System

7. TINY ALGORITHM
• Is a block cipher
• Operates on 32-bit unsigned integers
• Uses 128 bit key
• Has a Fiestal Structure with a suggested 64 round,
typically implemented in pair termed cycles.
• Creates an array of the integers, converts them in
binary, and then applies XOR gate in pairs to derive a
final key. Decryption can be done only and only with
that key, otherwise item stays encrypted.

8. FIESTAL STRUCTURE

9. WEAKNESSES
• Suffers from equivalent keys, each key is
equivalent to three others, which means
effective key size is only 126 bits.
• Is bad as a Cryptographic Hash Function
• Is also susceptible to a Related Key Attack
which requires 2^23 chosen plaintexts under a
related key pair, with 2^32 time complexity.

10. IMAGE STEGANOGRAPHY
• The art of concealing a file in an image.
• The advantage of Steganography over Cryptography is
that the intended secret message does not attract
attention to itself as an object of scrutiny.
• 128 bit Advanced Encryption Standard (AES)
encryption is used to securely transfer a text message
even if its presence were to be detected. Currently, no
methods are used for breaking this kind of encryption
within a reasonable period of time. Additionally,
compression is used to maximize the space available in
an image.

11. RIJNDAEL ALGORITHM
• Is also a block cipher
• It uses 125-bit,192-bit or 256-bit keys
• Encrypts 128-bit blocks
• Symmetric key algo (same key used for both
encryption and decryption)

12. SUB BYTES STEP
In the SubBytes step, each byte in the state is replaced with its
entry in a fixed 8-bit lookup table, S;
B[I,j]=S(a[I,j])

13. SHIFT ROW STEP
Bytes in each row are shifted cyclically to the left. The
number of places of each byte is shifted differs for each row.

14. MIX COLUMNS STEPS
In the MixColumns step , each column of the state is
multiplied with a fixed matrix

15. ADD ROUND KEY STEP
Each byte of the state is combined with a byte of the round
subkey using the XOR operation

16. STEPS FOR PERFORMING
• Create a buffer for encryption and decryption.
• Provide three macros to convert the keybits values to closely
related values.
• Encryption and Decryption are performed one block at a time.
• It is advisable to clear and delete the buffers after the process is
finished.
• It encrypts the standard input (padding it with spaces, if
necessary), and writes the result to the specified cryptofile.
• It then decrypts the cryptofile contents and sends the results to
the standard output.

17. VIDEO CRYPTOGRAPHY
THUS VIDEO CRYPTOGRAPHY IS A VERY SECURE
OPTION

18. DCT ALGORITHM FOR
VIDEO CRYPTOGRAPHY
There are different steps in DCT technique to compress the image.
1.The image is broken into N*N blocks of pixels. Here N may be 4, 8,
16,etc.
2. Working from left to right, top to bottom, the DCT is applied to
each block.
3. Each block’s elements are compressed through
quantization means dividing by some specific value.
4. The array of compressed blocks that constitute the
image is stored in a drastically reduced amount of space

COMPRESSION

20. Hybrid Port Knocking
(HPK) Algorithm
• In computer networking port knocking is a method of
externally opening ports on a firewall by generating a
connection attempt on a set of prespecified closed
ports. Once a correct sequence of connection
attempts is received, the firewall rules are dynamically
modified to allow the host which sent the connection
attempts to connect over specific port(s). A variant
called Single Packet Authorization exists, where only a
single "knock" is needed, consisting of
an encrypted packet.

21. port knocking in 4 easy
steps
step 1 (A) client
cannot connect to
application listening
on port n; (B) client
cannot establish
connection to any
port
step 2 | (1,2,3,4) client
connects to a well-defined
set of ports in a sequence
that contains an encrypted
message by sending SYN
packets; client has a priori
knowledge of the port
knocking daemon and its
configuration, but receives
no acknowledgement during
this phase because firewall
rules preclude any response
step 3 | (A) server process (a
port knocking daemon)
intercepts connection
attempts and interprets
(decrypts and decodes) them
as comprising an authentic
"port knock"; server carries
out specific task based on
content of port knock, such
as opening port n to client
step 4 | (A) client
connects to port n
and authenticates
using applications
regular mechanism

22. The Proposed HPK
Technique
• The HPK technique consists of seven main steps. In what FOLLOWS,
• Traffic monitoring
• Traffic capturing
• Image processing
• Client authenticating
• Server authentication
• Proving the identity of the client
• Port closing

23. Security Measurements and Evaluation
• In order to evaluate the security of the HPK technique, a
• number of hacking scenarios were compared with two
• other well known port-knocking techniques (Traditional
• Port-knocking, and Single Packet Authorization). The
• scenarios performed were the following:
• 1. TCP replay attack
• 2. DoS attack

27. Least Significant bit
• For Hiding the information via Audio Steganography
we have applied the Least significant bit
• In computing, the least significant bit (lsb) is
the bit position in a binary integer giving the units
value, that is, determining whether the number is even
or odd. The lsb is sometimes referred to as the right-
most bit, due to the convention in positional notation
of writing less significant digits further to the right. It
is analogous to the least significant digit of a decimal
integer, which is the digit in the ones (right-most)
position.

28. Time Complexities
• The most Efficient is the Rijndael (AES)
enc/dec system as it uses 3 levels of 128, 196
and 256 bits of block sizes and has a time
complexity GF(28)
• Whereas, the Neural networks are NP-
complete , so breaking the security of neural
key exchange belongs to the complexity class
NP.
• The Tiny algorithm time complexity are 2^32
(for 64 bit) and 2^126 for 128 bit .
