The rapid I. INTRODUCTION increase of Digitization resulted to an increased reliance Cryptography is a technique of protecting secure on cryptography. Modern era has seen the rise of computing information from unwanted individuals by converting it into devices, especially hand held devices. Information, in large unintelligible form. It is an art to transform or change the quantity, can be digitalized and stored on these devices. Also data to make it secure and immune against security attacks. these information must be shared to others devices, connected either via wired or wireless links, which are insecure channels. Cryptography[1,2] is used for secure Information is a long term resource to any individual and/or communication of the electronic channel in the presence of organization and hence privacy of the information is of great third parties to secured the data with respect to importance. Cryptographyis a way to ensure the authentication, confidentiality, authentication, data integrity, access control integrity, accessibility, confidentiality, and identity of user data and non-repudiation. An original message is known as the and also maintained the security and privacy of user data. plaintext, while the encrypted message is called the cipher- Encryption is the process of converting normal data or plaintext text[18]. The way of transforming from plaintext to cipher- to something incomprehensible or cipher-text by applying text is known as enciphering or encryption[18, 19] and again mathematical transformations or formulae. These mathematical restoring the plaintext from the cipher-text is deciphering or transformations or formulae used for encryption processes are called algorithms. We have analysed data encryption algorithms decryption[25].

This is done to avoid unauthorized user access. A key is used at the time of encryption and decryption process. The security level of cryptography is determined by key length[18]. II. OVERVIEW OF VARIOUS ALGORITHMS In this section we will discuss about various cryptographic algorithms to be analysed for their performance evaluation[15]. To start the algorithm analysis firstly we should know that what is Algorithm actually. “An algorithm is a sequence of unambiguous instructions for solving a problem”, i.e., for obtaining a required output for Figure 1. Process of Cryptography any legitimate input in a finite amount of time. We are taking The many schemes used for encryption constitute the area eight encryption algorithms under consideration those are Basic terminologies in cryptography are as follows: DES, Triple DES, AES, IDEA, RC5, TWOFISH, THREEFISH and This terminology is very important to understand because in BLOWFISH [18] etc. every algorithm description, we are going to discuss these common terms: A. DES (Data Encryption Standard) Plain-text: The original text or message used in It was developed in the early 1975 at IBM labs by communication in called as Plain text[20]. Example: John Horst Fiestel. The DES was approved by the NBS (National sends “Hello” to Perry. Here “Hello” is Plain text or Original Bureau of Standards, now called NIST (National Institute of message. The original message to be encrypted. Standards and Technology) in 1978. The DES was Encryption: Encryption is a process of converting Plain text standardized by the ANSI (American National Standard into Cipher text. This non-readable message can securely be Institute) under the name of ANSI X3.92, better known as communicated over the unsecure network. Encryption DEA (Data Encryption Algorithm)[4]. The DES was once a process is done using encryption algorithm. The process of predominant symmetric-key algorithm[6] for the encryption mapping the original data to a meaningless form. of electronic data. DES uses 56 bits key for encryption and Key: A key is a numeric or Alpha-numeric text decryption. It completes the 16 rounds of encryption on each (mathematical formula). In encryption process it takes place 64 bits block of data. Data encryption standard works on a on Plain text and in decryption process it takes place on particular principle. Data encryption standard is a symmetric cipher text. The confidential key is the input to encryption encryption[9] system that uses 64-bit blocks, 8 bits (one algorithm. The algorithm in turn produces different outputs octet) of which are used for parity checks (to verify the key's for different keys used[19]. integrity)[25]. Each of the key's parity bits (1 every 8 bits) is Cipher-text: The plain text is encrypted in un-readable used to check one of the key's octets by odd parity, that is, message. This message has no meaning is called Cipher Text. each of the parity bits is adjusted to have an odd number of The meaningless message obtained after encryption process.

This is mainly the decryption process. The output of this decryption process because to the 56-bit key size being too small to provide is the original message. security.

Block Size : Key cipher works on fixed length string of bits B. DES (Triple Data Encryption Standard) called Block size. This block size can changes from In cryptography techniques, Triple Data Encryption Standard algorithm to algorithm[15].

Triple-DES is also proposed by IBM in 1978 as a substitute to DES. So, 3DES is simply the DES symmetric encryption algorithm[19], used A. Main Objectives of Cryptography three times on the same data.

Integrity: The recipient should be able to determine if the message has been altered. Assuming receiver that received message has not been altered in any way from the original message[19]. Authentication: The sender and receiver can confirm each other’s identity and the origin/destination of the information. Non-repudiation: The emitter should not be able to deny sending the message. 2 International Journal of Computer Engineering and Applications, Volume XII, Special Issue, April 18, www.ijcea.com ISSN 2321-3469 Add Round Key: In this step, round key is added to the output of the previous step during the forward encryption process. This step normally differs from others because of various key size. In AES encryption process[23,24], it uses different round keys. These keys are applied along with other mathematical operations on an array of data in this process. This data is present in blocks of particular size. This array is called state array. This encryption process includes following process: Figure 2. 3DES Structure 1. Initially derive the different round keys from cipher key. In this technique, same data is encrypted two times 2.

Perform the process of state manipulation in nine rounds. Triple DES is basically a Block cipher which uses generally 5. After tenth round of manipulation, we will get the final 48 rounds i.e. Three times the DES in its computation, and output as cipher text. By following above process we get the also key length of 168 bits. 3-DES also Uses the Block size final encrypted text or cipher text. of 64 bits for encryption[14]. The main advantage of Triple DES is that it is three times secure (as it is combination or D. Blowfish three DES algorithms with different keys at each level) than Blowfish was developed by bruce schneier in 1993. It is DES that’s why it is preferred over simple DES encryption basically a symmetric block cipher algorithm having variable algorithm.

  • The Implementation of ”Kuznyechik” Encryption Algorithm Using NVIDIA CUDA Technology
    The implementation of "Kuznyechik" encryption algorithm using NVIDIA CUDA technology A N Borisov1 and E V Myasnikov1 1Samara National Research University, Moskovskoe Shosse 34А, Samara, Russia, 443086 e-mail: [email protected] Abstract. In this paper, we discuss various options for implementing the "Kuznyechik" block encryption algorithm using the NVIDIA CUDA technology. We use lookup tables as a basis for the implementation. In experiments, we study the influence of the size of the block of threads and the location of lookup tables on the encryption speed. We show that the best results are obtained when the lookup tables are stored in the global memory. The peak encryption speed reaches 30.83 Gbps on the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 graphics processor . 1. Introduction Cryptographic protection is an important part of a modern IT infrastructure. Nowadays, both the volume of information and computing power are continually increasing. Accordingly, there are growing demands on both the robustness and speed of cryptographic algorithms. The idea of using graphics processors to speed up encryption algorithms appeared almost simultaneously with the idea of using them for general-purpose computing[1]. As known, the maximum profit from the use of graphics processors can be achieved only with massive parallel tasks. It is not surprising that the most noticeable results in this field were obtained for block encryption in the ECB (electronic code book) and CTR (gamming) modes, since the blocks of plain text are processed independently in this case. At present, there is a lot of papers, which focuses on using graphics processors for encryption. Most of the papers are devoted to the AES encryption algorithm.

  • An Efficient Implementation of the Blowfish Encryption Algorithm
    An Efficient Implementation of the Blowfish Encryption Algorithm A thesis submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the degree of Master of Science In the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Of the College of Engineering and Applied Sciences July 2014 By Ramya Krishna Addluri B.E, Electronics and Communications Engineering, University College of Engineering, Osmania University, India, 2011 Thesis Advisor and Committee Chair: Dr. Carla Purdy ABSTRACT Global networking and mobile computing are prevalent today, with the increase of communication methods such as telephones, computers, internet, broadcasting, etc. Because these transmission channels are open, there is no guarantee to avoid unauthorized access of the information through eavesdropping. Thus, several encryption algorithms have been designed for the security of the information being stored or transmitted. Several applications require such high throughputs for encryption and decryption that they cannot be executed on a regular general purpose microprocessor. FPGAs are a great platform for such implementations. We briefly study several cryptographic algorithms designed to prevent eavesdropping and then focus in detail on the Blowfish encryption algorithm. It is widely used in tools for password management, database security, email encryption etc. The algorithm is implemented in VHDL. It is then deployed onto a Nios II soft core processor on Altera DE1 board. Altera Quartus II is used to synthesize the design. Software based Huffman encoding is used to encode the input to the algorithm to reduce redundancy and to achieve lossless data compression. The results are analyzed. ii iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENT First of all, I would like to thank my advisor, Dr.

March 2015, Vol. 58 032105:1–032105:14 doi: 10.1007/s11432-014-5219-0 The DBlock family of block ciphers WU WenLing1,2 *, ZHANG Lei1 & YU XiaoLi1 1Trusted Computing and Information Assurance Laboratory, Institute of Software, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100190,China; 2State Key Laboratory of Computer Science, Institute of Software, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100190,China Received March 11, 2014; accepted September 23, 2014 Abstract In this paper, we propose a new family of block ciphers named DBlock. It consists of three variants which are specified as DBlock-128, DBlock-192, and DBlock-256, respectively. DBlock-n has the equal n-bit block length and key length. The structure of DBlock successfully combines the advantages of Feistel and Type-2 generalized Feistel structures together. Also, its design of round function employs different linear transforms operating on various word-sizes, which efficiently improve the diffusion effect. For key schedule of DBlock, it basically employs the same module used in encryption, except the choice of different byte permutations, which can improve its suitability for various implementation environments and also enhance its security against many cryptanalytic techniques. Our preliminary evaluation shows that DBlock can achieve enough security margin against known attacks, and it can also obtain excellent performances on various software and hardware platforms.

  • Side-Channel Analysis of Keccak and Ascon
    Master Thesis Computing Science Radboud University Nijmegen Side-Channel Analysis of Keccak and Ascon Author: Supervisor: Niels Samwel Prof. dr. Joan Daemen Second Assessor: Dr. Lejla Batina Daily Supervisor: MSc. Kostas Papagiannopoulos August 31, 2016 Abstract This thesis is about side-channel analysis of the SHA-3 competition winner Keccak and a similar algorithm Ascon. During the operation of such an algo- rithm on a device information will leak in many different ways. In this thesis we only look at the information that is leaked by the power consumption of a device. This leakage can be exploited with a technique called DPA. With DPA one tries to obtain a small part of secret data, usually the secret key using a many power traces with random input messages and the key in each trace. We verified a theoretical attack with experiments on an actual chip. We also compared an attack on MAC-Keccak implemented on an FPGA to an ASIC. For Ascon which was implemented on an FPGA we crafted a sim- ilar attack as Keccak. With DPA being a very powerful tool for an attacker hardware needs to be designed with countermeasures against this. Threshold implementations are such countermeasures, we tried to attack an threshold implementation on an FPGA of Ascon to see if it was possible with a feasible amount of power traces. Finally, we look a the noise components in a power trace and how much effect the effect of electrical noise is with Ascon.
