A Study of Email Encryption on Android OS. International Journal of Information Engineering and Applications. Vol. 1, No. 2, 2018, pp. 67-70. Received : January 27, 2018; Accepted : February 18, 2018; Published : March 23, 2018 Abstract: In the past, mobile devices are used for making/receiving calls and SMS. Smartphones become the most common and typical mobile devices in recent years. They merge the PDA (personal digital assistant) with the functionality of mobile phone. Moreover, they are provided many functionality of the computers, such as processing, communication, data storage and etc. Also, they provide many services that the computers make them available, for example web browser, video call, GPS, Wi- Fi, different social media application and etc. Recently, email is one of many relevant communication services that accessed commonly using smartphones. One of most popular operating systems in smartphones that using it, is android. In this paper, email encryption on android is present using Asymmetric key for files, emails, and texts to encrypt/ decrypt, sign email/file, and verify. Both OpenKeychain and Samsung email is used in this paper to simulate the use of PGP on android. This paper proposed the use of asymmetric in the same mobile application which is compatible with all OS platforms software.

Koontz, Judith Devaney Information Technology Laboratory National Institute of Standards and Technology Gaithersburg, MD 20899 January 14, 1999 Abstract An authentication framework is described that provides a secure means for clients to access remote computing resources via the Web. Clients authenticate themselves to a proxy Web server using a secure protocol and a digital certificate. The server constructs a fingerprint (digest) of the certificate using a secure hash function. This hash value acts as a user’s identification, which is used to obtain remote login information for that user from an authentication database. Client commands can then be executed by the Web server on remote hosts using the Secure Shell protocol.

Computing resources are shared Examples of cloud services are: rather than having personal devices to handle applications. Social Networking Sites, e.g., facebook, twitter etc, Information is accessed simply at anywhere, anyhow by connecting our device with web. Cloud Computing is E-mail communication, predicated on web services used for storing, transferring Google Docs (word, spreadsheets etc), and lots of alternative operations associated with information. Security is the major issue in cloud Amazon MP3 (to keep music in cloud), computing. The different algorithms have been proposed to provide security to critical data. This paper gives a brief Apple iCloud (works with Apple products) and introduction to some existing security algorithms in Cloud DropBox Computing. There is an absence of actual definition of cloud General Terms computing. Certainly, the dearth of a regular definition of Cloud Computing, Security issues and Security cloud computing has generated a good quantity of algorithms. confusion. There appears to be several definitions of cloud computing. The United States National Institute of 1.
