Many modern day cryptographic methods can be used to encrypt the message before C. Decryption of the Cipher-text transmitting in the secured medium. In certain situations like The receiver with his private key calculates when there is matter of national security the information t. r−x encrypted has to be decrypted, it is where the cryptanalysis which gives the plaintext. comes into play. Cryptanalysis is the field of Cryptography in But in this algorithm, as there is just one private key, it can which various types of Cryptographic techniques are be guessed by any intruder and is thus not reliable. carefully studied in order to reverse engineer the encrypted information in order to retrieve the sensible information. The III. PROBLEM SOLUTION main aim and function of the Decryption tool is to take the In this project we are modifying the existing conventional input as the encrypted text given from the user and encryption algorithm by dividing the private key and cryptanalyze it and give the output as the decrypted text in assigning them to 2n+1 authorized receivers individually. case more than one sensible decrypted text found it will The persons will be able to decrypt the message received output all the possible decrypted texts. -

Each component offers little security by itself, but when composed, the layers obscure the message to the point that it is difficult for an adversary to recover.

The practice to keep the information securely is by scrambling the message into unreadable form namely ciphertext. This process is called encryption. Decryption is the reverse process of encryption. For the past, historical ciphers are used to perform encryption and decryption process. For example, the common historical ciphers are Hill cipher, Playfair cipher, Random Substitution cipher and Vigenère cipher. This research is carried out to examine and to analyse the security level of these four historical ciphers by using known plaintext frequency statistical attack. The result had shown that Playfair cipher and Hill cipher have better security compare with Vigenère cipher and Random Substitution cipher. -

ABSTRACT Fig 1: General cryptographic system. The theme of our research is to provide security for the data that contains alphanumeric values during its transmission. The best known multiple letter encryption cipher is the play fair, which treats the plain text as single units and translates these units into cipher text. It is highly difficult to the intruder to understand or to decrypt the cipher text. In this we discussed about the existing play fair algorithm, its merits and demerits. The existing play fair algorithm is based on the use of a 5 X 5 matrix of letters constructed using a keyword. This algorithm can only allow the text that contains alphabets only. For this we have proposed an enhancement to the existing algorithm, that a 6 X 6 matrix can be constructed. General Terms Encryption, Decryption, Plaintext, Cipher text. 2. EXISTING TECHNIQUES All cryptographic algorithms are based on two general Keywords principals: substitution, in which each element in the plaintext Substitution, Transposition. (bit, letter and group of bits or letters) is mapped into another element and in transposition, the elements of the plaintext have 1. -
Simple Substitution and Caesar Ciphers
Spring 2015 Chris Christensen MAT/CSC 483 Simple Substitution Ciphers The art of writing secret messages – intelligible to those who are in possession of the key and unintelligible to all others – has been studied for centuries. The usefulness of such messages, especially in time of war, is obvious; on the other hand, their solution may be a matter of great importance to those from whom the key is concealed. But the romance connected with the subject, the not uncommon desire to discover a secret, and the implied challenge to the ingenuity of all from who it is hidden have attracted to the subject the attention of many to whom its utility is a matter of indifference. Abraham Sinkov In Mathematical Recreations & Essays By W.W. Rouse Ball and H.S.M. Coxeter, c. 1938 We begin our study of cryptology from the romantic point of view – the point of view of someone who has the “not uncommon desire to discover a secret” and someone who takes up the “implied challenged to the ingenuity” that is tossed down by secret writing. We begin with one of the most common classical ciphers: simple substitution. A simple substitution cipher is a method of concealment that replaces each letter of a plaintext message with another letter. Here is the key to a simple substitution cipher: Plaintext letters: abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz Ciphertext letters: EKMFLGDQVZNTOWYHXUSPAIBRCJ The key gives the correspondence between a plaintext letter and its replacement ciphertext letter. (It is traditional to use small letters for plaintext and capital letters, or small capital letters, for ciphertext. We will not use small capital letters for ciphertext so that plaintext and ciphertext letters will line up vertically.) Using this key, every plaintext letter a would be replaced by ciphertext E, every plaintext letter e by L, etc. -

Cryptanalysis of Mono-Alphabetic Substitution Ciphers Using Genetic Algorithms and Simulated Annealing Shalini Jain Marathwada Institute of Technology, Dr
Vol. 08 No. 01 2018 p-ISSN 2202-2821 e-ISSN 1839-6518 (Australian ISSN Agency) 82800801201801 Cryptanalysis of Mono-Alphabetic Substitution Ciphers using Genetic Algorithms and Simulated Annealing Shalini Jain Marathwada Institute of Technology, Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar Marathwada University, India Nalin Chhibber University of Waterloo, Ontario, Canada Sweta Kandi Marathwada Institute of Technology, Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar Marathwada University, India ABSTRACT – In this paper, we intend to apply the principles of genetic algorithms along with simulated annealing to cryptanalyze a mono-alphabetic substitution cipher. The type of attack used for cryptanalysis is a ciphertext-only attack in which we don’t know any plaintext. In genetic algorithms and simulated annealing, for ciphertext-only attack, we need to have the solution space or any method to match the decrypted text to the language text. However, the challenge is to implement the project while maintaining computational efficiency and a high degree of security. We carry out three attacks, the first of which uses genetic algorithms alone, the second which uses simulated annealing alone and the third which uses a combination of genetic algorithms and simulated annealing. Key words: Cryptanalysis, mono-alphabetic substitution cipher, genetic algorithms, simulated annealing, fitness I. Introduction II. Mono-alphabetic substitution cipher Cryptanalysis involves the dissection of computer systems by A mono-alphabetic substitution cipher is a class of substitution unauthorized persons in order to gain knowledge about the ciphers in which the same letters of the plaintext are replaced unknown aspects of the system. It can be used to gain control by the same letters of the ciphertext. -
Multiple Results on Multiple Encryption
Multiple Results on Multiple Encryption Itai Dinur, Orr Dunkelman, Nathan Keller, and Adi Shamir The Security of Multiple Encryption: Given a block cipher with n-bit plaintexts and n-bit keys, we would like to enhance its security via sequential composition Assuming that – the basic block cipher has no weaknesses – the k keys are independently chosen how secure is the resultant composition? P C K1 K2 K3 K4 Double and Triple Encryptions: Double DES and triple DES were widely used by banks, so their security was thoroughly analyzed By using a Meet in the Middle (MITM) attack, Diffie and Hellman showed in 1981 that double encryption can be broken in T=2^n time and S=2^n space. Note that TS=2^{2n} Given the same amount of space S=2^n, we can break triple encryption in time T=2^{2n}, so again TS=2^{3n} How Secure is k-encryption for k>3? The fun really starts at quadruple encryption (k=4), which was not well studied so far, since we can show that breaking 4-encryption is not harder than breaking 3-encryption when we use 2^n space! Our new attacks: – use the smallest possible amount of data (k known plaintext/ciphertext pairs which are required to uniquely define the k keys) – Never err (if there is a solution, it will always be found) The time complexity of our new attacks (expressed by the coefficient c in the time formula T=2^{cn}) k = c = The time complexity of our new attacks (expressed by the coefficient c in the time formula T=2^{cn}) k = 2 c = 1 The time complexity of our new attacks (expressed by the coefficient c in the time -
