The Security Of Data Tightly And Information Security
UCTION
In today's world transformation of data very securely and information security are the most
important categories for the organizations to follow or else the information can easily be taken away
by the enemies. In olden days the organizations used to follow the encryption and decryption for the
transformation of data securely which is known as cryptography. In cryptography the security of
data depends on how strong the encryption and decryption are said to be used. But it is not very easy
for the sender and receiver to recall all the passwords. So avoid those difficulties crypto–biometric is
used which is the combination of biometric and cryptography. The biometric is a technology that
identifies humans with their body uniqueness like fingerprints, face prints and voice patterns for the
validation purposes. In recent year's most of the analysts, trying to eradicate the password
identification and using the biometric. The combination of cryptography and biometric can eliminate
the recall of passwords because the information can be used only by the identified person. But there
are some of the problems that are faced in the biometric. The biometric system which contains the
information should not reveal any biometric features. It should also have the flexibility of
converting the varied data in to the fixed. So, the data cannot be revealed to the unauthorized person
when it was transmitted. Therefore, the result of Fingerprint based crypto–biometric system for

Abstract. The Playfair cipher is a manual symmetric encryption technique and was the first literal
digraph substitution cipher. The cryptanalysis of the Playfair cipher is also aided by the fact that a
diagram and its reverse will encrypt in a similar fashion. The paper proposes to encrypt/decrypt by
choosing 216 ASCII characters out of 256 ASCII characters. The 216 characters includes the most
frequently & popularly usable characters like 26 upper & lower case alphabets, 10 numerals and 154
most commonly used special characters of ASCII character set. 40 special characters that are less
frequently used are exempted. 2D–Playfair cipher is a case sensitive cipher, as it requires only 26
alphabets rather than 52 alphabets (including lower and upper case both).The theme of this paper is
to provide security for the data that contains a wider coverage of alphabets numerals and special
characters in compare to 2D playfair cipher.

But, by the use of more than one translation table, especially when implemented in a 'pseudo–
random' order, this adaptation makes code breaking relatively difficult. An example of this method
might use translation table 'A' on all of the 'even' bytes, and translation table 'B' on all of the 'odd'
bytes. Unless a potential code breaker knows that there are exactly 2 tables, even with both source
and encrypted data available the deciphering process is relatively difficult. Similar to using a
translation table, 'data repositioning' lends itself to use by a computer, but takes considerably more
time to accomplish. A buffer of data is read from the input, then the order of the bytes (or other
'chunk' size) is rearranged, and written 'out of order'. The decryption program then reads this back
in, and puts them back 'in order'. Often such a method is best used in combination with one or more
of the other encryption methods mentioned here, making it even more difficult for code breakers to
determine how to decipher your encrypted data. As an example, consider an anagram. The letters are
all there, but the order has been changed. Some anagrams are easier than others to decipher, but a
well written anagram is a brain teaser nonetheless, especially if it's intentionally misleading. My

Security And Privacy Of The Cloud Storage Services
Cloud storage has been employed to provide online storage services for various kind of users having
different requirements. It provides great flexibility in the sense that users can take advantage of the
services from any location just with the availability of the internet connection. The data backup and
storage facilities provided by cloud computing allow the users to store their information in the
cloud, thus providing them the benefits of easy access, protection and reliability (as data is stored in
multiple sites). However, the users are unsure and unaware about where their data is specifically
stored and who all can have access to their data stored in the cloud. This makes the security and
privacy of users' data critical. In this project we aim at doing an analysis of the security schemes
employed by different cloud vendors to avoid the security and privacy intrusion of the user 's

When a fellow general received the message, he would wrap the paper around his corresponding
scytale to decipher the message (Tyson 2014). Since the advent of computers though, encryption has
become increasing important and relies almost solely on cryptographic means to secure information.
When speaking about encryption today, it refers more to the process rather than the mathematical
formulas used to scramble data. The basic idea behind encrypting a computer message is such that it
is scrambled with a sequence of random bits, known as a key, and only parties with the
corresponding key can transpose it back into a comprehensible format. These keys are created via a
cipher, otherwise known as an algorithm. When a user sends a message, known as the plaintext,
across a network, the computer applies an algorithm to the information to encode it, resulting in a
ciphertext (Encryption Basics 2014). This method can be best summarized visually: Plaintext
message + encryption algorithm + secret key = Ciphertext Ciphertext + corresponding key +
decryption algorithm = Plaintext message Generally speaking, modern encryption techniques fall
into one of two categories – symmetric (homogeneous) and asymmetric (heterogeneous). Symmetric
encryption is a system of communication whereby both parties share the same key to encode and
decode a message. The Spartan generals used this method with their scytales.

Abstract :–
As no of patients that are suffering from cardiac diseases are increasing very rapidly, it is important
that remote ECG patient monitoring systems should be used as point–of–care (PoC) applications in
hospitals around the world. Therefore, huge amount of ECG signal collected by body sensor
networks from remote patients at homes will be transmitted along with other personal biological
readings such as blood pressure, temperature, glucose level, etc., and get treated accordingly by
those remote patient monitoring systems. It is very important that patient privacy is protected while
data are being transmitted over the public network as well as when they are stored in hospital
servers . In this paper, a one new technique has been introduced which is the hybrid of encryption
and wavelet–based ECG steganography technique .
Encryption allows privacy and ECG steganography allows to hide one sensitive data into other

The pixel expansion problem occurred in extended VC scheme using general access structure was
solved by algorithm proposed by Lee and Chiu with addition of meaningful cover image in each
share, without generating noisy pixels. This approach consists of two phases. In the first phase,
depending upon a given access structure, meaningless shares are constructed with the help of an
optimization technique. In the second phase, using stamping algorithm the addition of cover images
to each share is done. The construction problem of VCS for general access structures is formulated
as a mathematical optimization problem being solved using optimization techniques. They have
developed a hybrid method for EVCS constructions. With the use of stamping algorithm, all present
VC schemes can be changed so that the extended VC schemes are developed without redesigning
codebooks. The advantage of EVCS is the modularity. Each phase in the encryption procedure
maintained modularity thus its easy to modify each phase clearly. Another advantage is that as the

Why Ssl Is Important Part Of Internet Communication
With the web in an uproar over privacy and encryption, the newbie webmaster might get
overwhelmed with all the acronyms, technical details and server configurations. Deciphering the
content on popular wikis such as Wikipedia just makes it more frustrating when descriptions get too
technical. Here is a breakdown of SSL, what it can do for you, why it's important and some simple
steps to get your own website encrypted.
What is SSL?
SSL stands for "secured sockets layer." Whenever you prefix a domain address with "HTTPS,"
you're sending encrypted communication across the Internet to a web server. SSL encrypts the
communication between the website and your browser, which means that any information you pass
over the Internet is jumbled in a way that only the recipient can decipher.
Importance of SSL
Understanding the mechanics of SSL is difficult, but it helps to understand why SSL is important
and how your Internet communications transfer to a recipient. Once you understand these basic
concepts, you'll understand why SSL is an important part of Internet communication.
When you type a website name into your browser, your browser first does a lookup for the domain's
IP address. Once the IP address is found, the browser makes a request to the server for a connection.
The server accepts, and then it sends you the website's HTML for your browser to display. Let's say
you find a contact form on a website and want to send the owner a message. You type your

Annotated Bibliography On Database Encryption
1. INTRODUCTION Database Encryption is one of the technique used for securing the data in
database. This method transforms information on a computer in such a way that it becomes
unreadable. So, even if someone is able to gain access to a computer with personal data on it, they
likely won't be able to do anything with the data unless they have original data key, complicated or
expensive software. The main function of encryption is essentially to translate normal text into
cipher text. Encryption makes sure that data doesn't get read by the wrong people, but can also
ensure that data isn't altered in transit, and verify the identity of the sender. Data Encryption method
typically uses a specified parameter or key to perform the data transformation. Some encryption
algorithms require the key to be the same length as the message to be encoded, yet other encryption
algorithms can operate on much smaller keys relative to the message. Encryption is most used
among transactions over insecure channels of communication, such as the internet. Encryption is
also used to protect data being transferred between devices such as mobile telephones, automatic
teller machines (ATMs), and many more. Encryption can be used to create digital signatures, which
allow a message to be authenticated. When properly implemented, a digital signature gives the
recipient of a message reason to believe the message was sent by the claimed sender. 2. THREATS

underneath the water. It's particularly quite a image once you notice that Gertrude stood there and
watched the entire factor.
Did she yell, "Guards! facilitate her!"?
Did she yell, "Be careful, don't kill yourself!"?
Why did she follow Ophelia thereto remote spot? perhaps she simply needed to speak, far from the
castle, far from the dudes in body armor with swords. perhaps she pushed Ophelia within the water,
or surprised her, inflicting her to fall. perhaps her whole description of the event is associate in an
elaborate way elaborated lie. perhaps she simply watched, and thought, "She's higher off" or "That
ought to be ME." perhaps she thought, "What might I do associateyway?" perhaps she was jealous
of Ophelia of achieving an escape that she couldn't.
Working back from this moment, you have got to form a call concerning Gertrude. Did she aggroup
with Roman Emperor to murder the king? is that this a love story? Did she "Lady Macbeth" that shit
and set the entire unhappy plot in motion? Is she oblivious? Is she numb from grief and trauma? Is
she maintaining plausible deniability to make sure her own survival and perhaps discount for her

Vsual Cryptography : A Branch Of Secret Sharing Data
1.1Overview
VISUAL cryptography (VC) is a branch of secret sharing data. In the VC scheme, a secret image is
encoded into transparencies, and the content of each transparency is noise–like so that the secret
information cannot be retrieved from any one transparency via human visual observation or signal
analysis techniques. In general, a –threshold VC scheme has the following properties: The stacking
of any out of those VC generated transparencies can reveal the secret by visual perception, but the
stacking of any or fewer number of transparencies cannot retrieve any information other than the
size of the secret image. Naor and Shamir [1] proposed a –threshold VC scheme based on basis
matrices, and the model had been further studied and ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
The probabilistic model of the VC scheme was first introduced by Ito et al. [2], where the scheme is
based on the basis matrices, but only one column of the matrices is chosen to encode a binary secret
pixel, rather than the traditional VC scheme utilizing the whole basis matrices. The size of the
generated transparencies is identical to the secret image. Yangs [31] also proposed a probabilistic
model of VC scheme, and the two cases and are explicitly constructed to achieve the optimal
contrast. Based on Yang [31], Cimato et al. [32] proposed a generalized VC scheme in which the
pixel expansion is between the probabilistic model of VC scheme and the traditional VC scheme.
Encrypting an image by random grids (RGs) was first introduced by Kafri and Keren [26] in 1987. A
binary secret image is encoded into two noise–like transparencies with the same size of the original
secret image, and stacking of the two transparencies reveals the content of the secret. Comparing
RGs with basis matrices, one of the major advantages is that the size of generated transparencies is
unexpanded. The RG scheme is similar to the probabilistic model of the VC scheme, but the RG
scheme is not based on the basis matrices. The recent studies include the RG for colour image [27],
and RG schemes [28], [29]. We also compare the proposed method with RG.

¡§PGP combines some of the best features of both conventional and public key cryptography. PGP is
a hybrid cryptosystem. PGP then creates a session key, which is a one–time–only secret key. This
key is a random number generated from the random movements of your mouse and the keystrokes
you type. This session key works with a very secure, fast conventional encryption algorithm to
encrypt the plaintext; the result is ciphertext. Once the data is encrypted, the session key is then
encrypted to the recipient's public key. This public key–encrypted session key is transmitted along
with the ciphertext to the recipient. ¡§(4)

Now let's represent M by an integer between 0 and n − 1. If the message is too long, sparse it up and
encrypt separately. Let e, d, n be positive integers, with (e, n) as the encryption key, (d, n) the
decryption key, n = pq.
Now, we encrypt the message by raising it to the eth power modulo n to obtain C, the cipher text.
We then decrypt C by raising it to the dth power modulo n to obtain M again. Formally, we obtain
these encryption and decryption algorithms for E and D:
C ≡ E(M) ≡ M e (mod n) (5)
M ≡ D(C) ≡ Cd (mod n) .

"gcd" means greatest common divisor.
The reason we want d to be coprime to (p − 1) (q − 1) is peculiar. I will not show the "direct
motivation" behind it; rather, it will become clear why that statement is important when l show
towards 4 the end of this section that it guarantees (1) and (2). We will want to compute e from d, p,
and q, where e is the multiplicative inverse of d.That means we need to satisfy
e d = 1 (mod φ(n)) . (7)
Here, we introduce the Euler totient function φ(n), whose output is the number of positive integers
less than n which are coprime to n. For primes p, this clearly becomes φ(p) = p − 1 . For n, we
obtain, by elementary properties of the totient function, that
φ(n) = φ(p) φ(q) = (p − 1) (q − 1) (8) = n − (p + q) + 1 .
From this equation, we can substitute φ(n) into equation (7) and obtain
e d ≡ 1 (mod φ(n))
which is equivalent to
e d = k φ(n) + 1
for some integer k.
By the laws of modular arithmetic, the multiplicative inverse of a modulo m exists if and only if a

was easy because it was just a simple offset of the alphabet and you could just line up the letters of
both alphabets and figure out what the message was. There are weak encryption and strong
encryption. Caesars method is known as weak encryption because it can be deciphered. Deciphering
a code without authorization is known as "cracking" a code. In order to crack the simple substitution
code, you could make twenty–five different transformation tales where each of them has a different
offset. Strong encryption, the opposite of weak encryption, is very tough to crack. By using
expensive, specialized, code–breaking computers, strong encryptions methods can be broken. Also,
encryption methods can be broken by the use of supercomputers, mainframe computers,
workstations and personal computers. The codes can be broken using these computers by using the
brute–force method, which consists of trying all of the possible keys (Parsons 329). Symmetric key
encryption is where the key is used to not only encrypt a message but to decrypt it as well. This is
also known as conventional and secret key encryption. Symmetric key encryption is rarely used due
to the fact that the person who encrypts the information has to get the key to the person who

This would eliminate the sheltering of illegal activities and allow increased, tighter surveillance of

Encryption technology would not have to be eliminated, but it would be required to include a
government ?back door?, so that any encryption code can be quickly broken if the need arises. A
writer for the Christian Science Monitor put it this way: ?people are willing to trade almost anything
for increased security, if they think it would make a difference? (Grier). Overall, however, this
position is held by very few people. The last solution is the one that is generally supported by those
who favor the right of personal privacy. They propose that everything should remain as it is. There
will be some minor adjustments to the current encryption technologies, but it will be allowed to
exist free of any back–doors or restrictions. In a debate of the new Anti–Terrorism Bill, Senator

Cryptographic authentication is used for remote user authentication. Windows and Unix platforms
can both provide for this function. While payload encryption is used for encrypting the data that is
sent within the packet. An example of data payload encryption is Secure Socket Layer (SSL). SSL
can encrypt data without cryptographic authentication of the remote user.
VPN cryptographic authentication is used to securely validate the identity of a remote user and
determine the level of access and security appropriate for them. It may also be used to authenticate
for the exchange of secret or public payload encryption keys. Shared secret or Private encryption
keys rely on both parties knowing the keys value. Challenge response can be used to ensure that the
hashes of the Private key and not the key itself are transmitted. In addition, one–time password
variations can be employed to ensure that the Private key is changed every time that they are used.

V. Issues Regarding The Public Key
V. Issues regarding the Public Key Cryptosystem With public keys being unique and the algorithms
creating extremely hard to crack encryption. Although with this method, it also is extremely taxing
on the computer system to encrypt and decrypt the message. Which is one of the main reasons that
private key encryption is still a thing to this day. The reason for this is the whole idea behind a
public key cryptosystem. To be able to release the encryption key without revealing the private
decryption key. For this to be achievable, much heavier mathematics is needed compared to a
private key which you just need to tangle up the bits so that the private key is the only thing that can
untangle the bits. With the known and used public key cryptosystems, they reach the necessary
security, but at the cost of a very heavy computation cost. The issue continues with using up
bandwidth as well. Anyone can use the public key, including an attacker. Which means that if all of
your data is decrypted in the same way the attacker can run an exhaustive search on any encrypted
data, even data they encrypted themselves, to crack your encryption. So any encrypted data that an
attacker can get their hands on is still valuable and useable data to them. To keep the level of
security we want, we need to add more randomness to the encryption. With extra randomness this
will include a data size increase. Let's say you need a 1024 bit key to keep an increased element of

Access Control and Data Updation in Cloud Computing
We consider a cloud computing environment consisting of a cloud service provider (CSP), a data
owner, and many users [few with read and few with both read/write permission]. The CSP maintains
cloud infrastructures, which pool the bandwidth, storage space, and CPU power of many cloud
servers to provide 24/7 services. The CSP mainly provides two services: data storage and re–
encryption. After obtaining the encrypted data from the data owner, the CSP will store the data. On
receiving a data access request from a user, the CSP will re–encrypt the ciphertext based on
attributes, and return the re–encrypted ciphertext. The data owner outsources a set of data to the
cloud. Each piece of data is encrypted before outsourcing. The data owner is responsible for
determining the access structure for each data, and distributing secret keys to each user. When a user
wishes to access data, he will first request appropriate keys from the data owner, and then request
the CSP to download the ciphertext. If his access right is effective when he requests the data, he can
successfully execute decryption. The data owner is the only one allowed to give read/write
permission to users. Data users with write permission can perform the updations and even delete the
data within their effective time period. A typical cloud environment is shown in Fig 1. Fig 1 A

users. In the paper "Steganographic Schemes for File System and B–Tree" [3], they have introduced
StegFD, a practical scheme to implement a steganographic file system in which a plausible
deniability to owners of protected files is offered. StegFD hides the selected files in a file system
securely in such a way that, an attacker will not be able to trace their existence, even if the attacker
has full knowledge of the hardware and software and data structures of the file system .They have
also proposed two schemes for implementing Steganographic B–trees in a StegFD volume. In paper
"A Multi–User Steganographic File System on Untrusted Shared Storage" [4] the threat to
steganographic file systems (StegFS) is described which arises when the storage system is untrusted
and is shared by multiple users. In such cases, the attacker could obtain multiple snapshots of the
storage content and analyze them to deduce the existence of secret user data. To solve this problem,
they have introduced a Dummy–Relocatable Steganographic (DRSteg) file system. It employs new
techniques to share and relocate dummy data at

  • 1. The Security Of Data Tightly And Information Security UCTION In today's world transformation of data very securely and information security are the most important categories for the organizations to follow or else the information can easily be taken away by the enemies. In olden days the organizations used to follow the encryption and decryption for the transformation of data securely which is known as cryptography. In cryptography the security of data depends on how strong the encryption and decryption are said to be used. But it is not very easy for the sender and receiver to recall all the passwords. So avoid those difficulties crypto–biometric is used which is the combination of biometric and cryptography. The biometric is a technology that identifies humans with their body uniqueness like fingerprints, face prints and voice patterns for the validation purposes. In recent year's most of the analysts, trying to eradicate the password identification and using the biometric. The combination of cryptography and biometric can eliminate the recall of passwords because the information can be used only by the identified person. But there are some of the problems that are faced in the biometric. The biometric system which contains the information should not reveal any biometric features. It should also have the flexibility of converting the varied data in to the fixed. So, the data cannot be revealed to the unauthorized person when it was transmitted.

Impact of Cryptanalysis using Advanced 3D Playfair Cipher Gaurav Kumawat1, Sandeep Upadhyay2 1 Department of Computer Sc. & Engg, Techno India NJR Institute of Technology 1gaurav_kumawat2002@yahoo.com 2 Department of Computer Sc. & Engg, Techno India NJR Institute of Technology 2sandeepupadhyay30@gmail.com Abstract. The Playfair cipher is a manual symmetric encryption technique and was the first literal digraph substitution cipher. The cryptanalysis of the Playfair cipher is also aided by the fact that a diagram and its reverse will encrypt in a similar fashion. The paper proposes to encrypt/decrypt by choosing 216 ASCII characters out of 256 ASCII characters. The 216 characters includes the most frequently & popularly usable characters like 26 upper & lower case alphabets, 10 numerals and 154 most commonly used special characters of ASCII character set. 40 special characters that are less frequently used are exempted. 2D–Playfair cipher is a case sensitive cipher, as it requires only 26 alphabets rather than 52 alphabets (including lower and upper case both).The theme of this paper is to provide security for the data that contains a wider coverage of alphabets numerals and special characters in compare to 2D playfair cipher. 1 Introduction Cryptography is the practice and study of techniques for secure communication in the presence of third parties.

  • 10. TJX Security Paper TJX was the largest retailer of apparel and fashion in the United States, with over 2400 stores and 125000 associates. It functions on the basis of an internal information system, which is essential for connecting people, places and information and; accessing data that enables quick and timely decisions. The presence of an IT network is imperative to the productivity of any retailer. But this IT network if not secured properly is the most sensitive to a cyber attack, thus making any retailer very vulnerable to attacks. Apart from the internal networks, the CRM technologies and in–store technologies (like bar–code scanners, kiosks, etc.) are also vulnerable to attacks. On analyzing the TJX security intrusion, the following require immediate ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... The company should periodically delete the data pertaining to previous years. TECHNOLOGY FAILURE POINTS: The company was not only using encryption tools but also was failing at meeting the compliance standards. PCI DSS was a security standard mandatory for all the retailers and TJX being the biggest retailer managed to meet only 9 out of the 12 requirements of the standards. The company failed at meeting the technology areas including encryption, access controls and firewalls. The company needs to pay immediate attention to the encryption tools and endeavor to meet all the security guidelines of the PCI DSS. Apart from that, the TJX system was so weak that anyone could easily eavesdrop on the employees and access information like user ID and passwords. The intruders had then easily created their own accounts and gained remote access from anywhere in the TJX system. Not only was the TJX system weak and lacked in system security, but also TJX was unable to determine the contents of the files stolen.

  • 12. Data Encryption Essay ENCRYPTION Introduction Often there has been a need to protect information from 'prying eyes'. In the electronic age, information that could otherwise benefit or educate a group or individual can also be used against such groups or individuals. Industrial espionage among highly competitive businesses often requires that extensive security measures be put into place. And, those who wish to exercise their personal freedom, outside of the oppressive nature of governments, may also wish to encrypt certain information to avoid suffering the penalties of going against the wishes of those who attempt to control. Still, the methods of data encryption and decryption are relatively straightforward, and easily mastered. I have been doing data ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... But, by the use of more than one translation table, especially when implemented in a 'pseudo– random' order, this adaptation makes code breaking relatively difficult. An example of this method might use translation table 'A' on all of the 'even' bytes, and translation table 'B' on all of the 'odd' bytes. Unless a potential code breaker knows that there are exactly 2 tables, even with both source and encrypted data available the deciphering process is relatively difficult. Similar to using a translation table, 'data repositioning' lends itself to use by a computer, but takes considerably more time to accomplish. A buffer of data is read from the input, then the order of the bytes (or other 'chunk' size) is rearranged, and written 'out of order'. The decryption program then reads this back in, and puts them back 'in order'. Often such a method is best used in combination with one or more of the other encryption methods mentioned here, making it even more difficult for code breakers to determine how to decipher your encrypted data. As an example, consider an anagram. The letters are all there, but the order has been changed. Some anagrams are easier than others to decipher, but a well written anagram is a brain teaser nonetheless, especially if it's intentionally misleading. My favorite methods, however, involve something that only computers can do: word/byte rotation and XOR bit masking. If you ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

Security And Security Techniques Overall information systems hardware, software, networks and data resources need to be protected and secured to ensure the effective performance of an organization. One security technique used by organizations to protect their computer systems from security threats is encryption this is a method used by organizations to send data to others it works by using special mathematical algorithms to convert the data into scrambled code before transmission and when the data is received it is decoded when an authorized user accesses it. In my opinion, this is very effective because it stops people from being able to read or use data if they intercepted it as the is in a scrambled letter and number form. Another security technique is a firewall this ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Anti–virus software and Antispyware Software works by identifying suspicious software based on a list of known threats it then checks the computer against that list and tells the user if it finds anything on its list. In my opinion, Anti–virus software and Anti–Spyware Software is very effective because it stops malicious software getting onto a computer which could steal or leak sensitive company data. One security technique is protecting systems with usernames and passwords to access any equipment, wireless networks and sensitive data should be guarded with unique usernames and passwords for each member of staff, this is for two reasons it is an added layer of security so if someone hacks in they have to get passed the password and it also allows companies to see what exactly their employees are accessing, also the passwords that are used should be very strong so the passwords should include numbers, letters and symbols and not have standard dictionary terms or dates such as birthdays which are easy to guess. In my opinion, usernames and passwords are very effective because it makes it harder for hackers to hack in and it allows companies to keep an eye on employees for example they will be able to see what files they are accessing and if they are a risk to the company.

Consider an instance where a student should only be able to view or modify the rows of data that matters specifically to him.

It provides great flexibility in the sense that users can take advantage of the services from any location just with the availability of the internet connection. The data backup and storage facilities provided by cloud computing allow the users to store their information in the cloud, thus providing them the benefits of easy access, protection and reliability (as data is stored in multiple sites). However, the users are unsure and unaware about where their data is specifically stored and who all can have access to their data stored in the cloud. This makes the security and privacy of users' data critical. In this project we aim at doing an analysis of the security schemes employed by different cloud vendors to avoid the security and privacy intrusion of the user 's information stored in their respective backup services. Different providers of the cloud storage services address the problem of security and privacy in their cloud through various ways and may come up with different schemes. There have been various studies catering to the individual scenarios and past security and privacy breaches in the cloud.

Since the advent of computers though, encryption has become increasing important and relies almost solely on cryptographic means to secure information. When speaking about encryption today, it refers more to the process rather than the mathematical formulas used to scramble data. The basic idea behind encrypting a computer message is such that it is scrambled with a sequence of random bits, known as a key, and only parties with the corresponding key can transpose it back into a comprehensible format. These keys are created via a cipher, otherwise known as an algorithm. When a user sends a message, known as the plaintext, across a network, the computer applies an algorithm to the information to encode it, resulting in a ciphertext (Encryption Basics 2014). This method can be best summarized visually: Plaintext message + encryption algorithm + secret key = Ciphertext Ciphertext + corresponding key + decryption algorithm = Plaintext message Generally speaking, modern encryption techniques fall into one of two categories – symmetric (homogeneous) and asymmetric (heterogeneous). Symmetric encryption is a system of communication whereby both parties share the same key to encode and decode a message. The Spartan generals used this method with their scytales. ...

The pixel expansion problem occurred in extended VC scheme using general access structure was solved by algorithm proposed by Lee and Chiu with addition of meaningful cover image in each share, without generating noisy pixels. This approach consists of two phases. In the first phase, depending upon a given access structure, meaningless shares are constructed with the help of an optimization technique. In the second phase, using stamping algorithm the addition of cover images to each share is done. The construction problem of VCS for general access structures is formulated as a mathematical optimization problem being solved using optimization techniques. They have developed a hybrid method for EVCS constructions. With the use of stamping algorithm, all present VC schemes can be changed so that the extended VC schemes are developed without redesigning codebooks. The advantage of EVCS is the modularity. Each phase in the encryption procedure maintained modularity thus its easy to modify each phase clearly.

Deciphering the content on popular wikis such as Wikipedia just makes it more frustrating when descriptions get too technical. Here is a breakdown of SSL, what it can do for you, why it's important and some simple steps to get your own website encrypted. What is SSL? SSL stands for "secured sockets layer." Whenever you prefix a domain address with "HTTPS," you're sending encrypted communication across the Internet to a web server. SSL encrypts the communication between the website and your browser, which means that any information you pass over the Internet is jumbled in a way that only the recipient can decipher. Importance of SSL Understanding the mechanics of SSL is difficult, but it helps to understand why SSL is important and how your Internet communications transfer to a recipient. Once you understand these basic concepts, you'll understand why SSL is an important part of Internet communication. When you type a website name into your browser, your browser first does a lookup for the domain's IP address. Once the IP address is found, the browser makes a request to the server for a connection. The server accepts, and then it sends you the website's HTML for your browser to display. Let's say you find a contact form on a website and want to send the owner a message. You type your ...

This method transforms information on a computer in such a way that it becomes unreadable. So, even if someone is able to gain access to a computer with personal data on it, they likely won't be able to do anything with the data unless they have original data key, complicated or expensive software. The main function of encryption is essentially to translate normal text into cipher text. Encryption makes sure that data doesn't get read by the wrong people, but can also ensure that data isn't altered in transit, and verify the identity of the sender. Data Encryption method typically uses a specified parameter or key to perform the data transformation. Some encryption algorithms require the key to be the same length as the message to be encoded, yet other encryption algorithms can operate on much smaller keys relative to the message. Encryption is most used among transactions over insecure channels of communication, such as the internet. Encryption is also used to protect data being transferred between devices such as mobile telephones, automatic teller machines (ATMs), and many more. Encryption can be used to create digital signatures, which allow a message to be authenticated. When properly implemented, a digital signature gives the recipient of a message reason to believe the message was sent by the claimed sender. 2. THREATS TO DATABASE 2.1 Database Databases are the ...

In the VC scheme, a secret image is encoded into transparencies, and the content of each transparency is noise–like so that the secret information cannot be retrieved from any one transparency via human visual observation or signal analysis techniques. In general, a –threshold VC scheme has the following properties: The stacking of any out of those VC generated transparencies can reveal the secret by visual perception, but the stacking of any or fewer number of transparencies cannot retrieve any information other than the size of the secret image. Naor and Shamir [1] proposed a –threshold VC scheme based on basis matrices, and the model had been further studied and ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... The probabilistic model of the VC scheme was first introduced by Ito et al. [2], where the scheme is based on the basis matrices, but only one column of the matrices is chosen to encode a binary secret pixel, rather than the traditional VC scheme utilizing the whole basis matrices. The size of the generated transparencies is identical to the secret image. Yangs [31] also proposed a probabilistic model of VC scheme, and the two cases and are explicitly constructed to achieve the optimal contrast. Based on Yang [31], Cimato et al. [32] proposed a generalized VC scheme in which the pixel expansion is between the probabilistic model of VC scheme and the traditional VC scheme. Encrypting an image by random grids (RGs) was first introduced by Kafri and Keren [26] in 1987. A binary secret image is encoded into two noise–like transparencies with the same size of the original secret image, and stacking of the two transparencies reveals the content of the secret. Comparing RGs with basis matrices, one of the major advantages is that the size of generated transparencies is unexpanded. The RG scheme is similar to the probabilistic model of the VC scheme, but the RG scheme is not based on the basis matrices. The recent studies include the RG for colour image [27], and RG schemes [28], [29].

There are weak encryption and strong encryption. Caesars method is known as weak encryption because it can be deciphered. Deciphering a code without authorization is known as "cracking" a code. In order to crack the simple substitution code, you could make twenty–five different transformation tales where each of them has a different offset.

The codes can be broken using these computers by using the brute–force method, which consists of trying all of the possible keys (Parsons 329). Symmetric key encryption is where the key is used to not only encrypt a message but to decrypt it as well. This is also known as conventional and secret key encryption. Symmetric key encryption is rarely used due to the fact that the person who encrypts the information has to get the key to the person who decrypts the information. This is uncommonly used because if the key is intercepted by an unauthorized person, there can ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

It charts a picture to an array of pixels and next, charts it back from the array to alike sized image. A Line chart consists of two submaps: the left Line chart and the right Line chart that are utilized for picture encryption and decryption. In order to vanquish the shortcoming of standard picture encryption ways established on two–dimensional (2–D) charts that can be utilized merely for permutation, this paper presents a novel picture encryption way established on the Line charts, that can present two procedures of picture encryption simultaneously, permutation and substitution, employing the alike maps.

The terrorists that attacked us used our own technology against us to protect their activities from our view. Because of this, we are now forced to make a decision between two desirable things: privacy and national security. On the one hand, our right to privacy will ensure that our personal rights are not violated, whereas, on the other hand, national security would allow us some comfort against the evil in the world. What are we supposed to do? This issue, however it is decided, will have tremendous impact on each and every one of our lives.

This would eliminate the sheltering of illegal activities and allow increased, tighter surveillance of cyberspace. Another similar solution would be to give the government a back–door into all areas of cyberspace. Basically, that would allow them to see whatever they want, whenever they want. Encryption technology would not have to be eliminated, but it would be required to include a government ?back door?, so that any encryption code can be quickly broken if the need arises. A writer for the Christian Science Monitor put it this way: ?people are willing to trade almost anything for increased security, if they think it would make a difference? (Grier). Overall, however, this position is held by very few people. The last solution is the one that is generally supported by those who favor the right of personal privacy. They propose that everything should remain as it is. There will be some minor adjustments to the current encryption technologies, but it will be allowed to exist free of any back–doors or restrictions. In a debate of the new Anti–Terrorism Bill, Senator Patrick Leahy stated that ?as Ben Franklin once observed, ?if we surrender our liberty in the name of security, we shall have neither?? (Leahy).

The developer also needs an understanding of the underlying concepts of Visual Cryptography and how they are used to generate shares of binary images. Recently, Visual Cryptography has been extended to accommodate shares of gray and color images, further extending its capabilities and versatility. This understanding of Visual Cryptography is necessary to allow an objective comparison of all the different types of algorithms. 1.5.

This is applied to a binary image by assigning the corresponding sub–pixel grouping to the pixels throughout the image. This results in two random shares where the message cannot be identified. The mathematical proof of this scheme and its perfect encryption are shown in the original paper by Naor and Shamir Visual Cryptography". 1.6 EXTENSION TO GRAY AND COLOR IMAGES: The process of Visual Cryptography, as developed through the original algorithm [12], was designed to be used with binary images. This is illustrated from the nature of the shares and the encryption process documented previously. If the secret messages being encoded contain text or binary images, the process shown in the original algorithm works well. However, the world is not composed of solely black and white pixels. With the increasing production of images in the digital age, gray and colour images have a pressing need for encryption and protection as much, or more, as binary images. 1.6.1 GRAY IMAGES: The development of an algorithm to encrypt binary images, they were also aware of the eventual need to encrypt gray and colour images.

This is achieved by using encrypted tunnels for security and efficiency. VPNs use encapsulated and encrypted IP packets and transport them across leased Local Area Network (LAN) lines. The benefits of using VPNs are reduced cost overhead, reduced management overhead, and added security (Microsoft Press, 2000). Least network lines are expensive and VPNs reduce then need for extra data connections. This in turn also aids in reducing the amount of overhead associated with managing a network.

Cryptographic authentication is used for remote user authentication. Windows and Unix platforms can both provide for this function. While payload encryption is used for encrypting the data that is sent within the packet. An example of data payload encryption is Secure Socket Layer (SSL). SSL can encrypt data without cryptographic authentication of the remote user. VPN cryptographic authentication is used to securely validate the identity of a remote user and determine the level of access and security appropriate for them. It may also be used to authenticate for the exchange of secret or public payload encryption keys. Shared secret or Private encryption keys rely on both parties knowing the keys value. Challenge response can be used to ensure that the hashes of the Private key and not the key itself are transmitted. In addition, one–time password variations can be employed to ensure that the Private key is changed every time that they are used. Before data is encapsulated and sent over the Internet, it is encrypted. This is called data payload encryption. Data payload encryption is used to encode all the contents of an IP packet, both data and header, to hide any information about the nature of the network and data being transmitted. This will prevent any snoopers from gathering information about the network that is sending the packet. Data ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

Although with this method, it also is extremely taxing on the computer system to encrypt and decrypt the message. Which is one of the main reasons that private key encryption is still a thing to this day. The reason for this is the whole idea behind a public key cryptosystem. To be able to release the encryption key without revealing the private decryption key. For this to be achievable, much heavier mathematics is needed compared to a private key which you just need to tangle up the bits so that the private key is the only thing that can untangle the bits. With the known and used public key cryptosystems, they reach the necessary security, but at the cost of a very heavy computation cost. The issue continues with using up bandwidth as well. Anyone can use the public key, including an attacker. Which means that if all of your data is decrypted in the same way the attacker can run an exhaustive search on any encrypted data, even data they encrypted themselves, to crack your encryption. So any encrypted data that an attacker can get their hands on is still valuable and useable data to them. To keep the level of security we want, we need to add more randomness to the encryption. With extra randomness this will include a data size increase. Let's say you need a 1024 bit key to keep an increased element of randomness. This means you are ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

Access Control and Data Updation in Cloud Computing We consider a cloud computing environment consisting of a cloud service provider (CSP), a data owner, and many users [few with read and few with both read/write permission]. The CSP maintains cloud infrastructures, which pool the bandwidth, storage space, and CPU power of many cloud servers to provide 24/7 services. The CSP mainly provides two services: data storage and re– encryption. After obtaining the encrypted data from the data owner, the CSP will store the data. On receiving a data access request from a user, the CSP will re–encrypt the ciphertext based on attributes, and return the re–encrypted ciphertext. The data owner outsources a set of data to the cloud. Each piece of data is encrypted before outsourcing. The data owner is responsible for determining the access structure for each data, and distributing secret keys to each user. When a user wishes to access data, he will first request appropriate keys from the data owner, and then request the CSP to download the ciphertext. If his access right is effective when he requests the data, he can successfully execute decryption. The data owner is the only one allowed to give read/write permission to users. Data users with write permission can perform the updations and even delete the data within their effective time period. A typical cloud environment is shown in Fig 1.
