Key Cryptography Basics
Problems with internet transactions
As discussed in class there are several problems with internet communication. The major three are:
Eavesdropping is the risk of having private information viewed as it travels from sender to recipient by a third party. The most popular fear is having your credit card number and information stolen while purchasing something online, but this would apply to any private information delivered over the internet.
Tampering is the risk of a third party intercepting a private transaction of information and changing it. An example of this would be altering the recipient fields on a purchase order.
Impersonation is the risk of someone impersonating a trusted recipient in order to receive private information. This
Encryption
Cryptograms in the newspaper are probably one of the most basic forms of encryption. A simple system of swapping letters for other letters is used to disguise the message making it indistinguishable to anyone who does not know the rules of the system. Even though the cryptogram system is so simplistic it is actually considered sporting to crack, the basic logic of encoding is the same for more sophisticated methods.
Key Based Encryption (symmetric encryption)
In this example of Key based encryption we first create a number conversion table so that we can apply mathematical rules to our message after converting it.
Number Conversion Table:

Then we decide upon a key. In order to decipher this code the recipient will also be required to posses this key. It will become obvious by the end of our example that the shorter the key the easier the code will be to crack.
Key:
Encrypted
We then take the message and the key convert them using the conversion table and add them together. Then in order to reassign them to a letter value we take the mod base 27 in order to restrict the letter assignment to numbers within the 0 to 27 table.
Message:

Cryptography Cryptography is the science of using mathematics to encrypt and decrypt data. Cryptography enables you to store sensitive information or transmit it across insecure networks so that it cannot be read by anyone except the intended recipient. While cryptography is the science of securing data, cryptanalysis is the science of analyzing and breaking secure communication. Classical cryptanalysis involves an interesting combination of analytical reasoning, application of mathematical tools
Symmetric cryptography, also known as secret key cryptography, has been in use for thousands of years in forms ranging from simple substitution ciphers(figures) to more complex developments. Be that as it may, improvements in science and the development of computing power have made it possible to make ciphers(figures) that are effectively unbreakable and secured. Symmetric frameworks are for the most part quick however are powerless so the key used to encrypt must be imparted to whomever needs to
Encryption is from the cryptography science, which includes coding and decoding of message to protect the safety. Development computer technology makes the encryption even more complicated. The ability for people to break codes is increasing, so are the ability to guard the codes. Many encryptions are available now. They were developed by some hi-tech company and sold, or you can choose some free service. Actually, when you are using the web browsers, emails, or even the basic system, your information
Cryptography is the study of secure or secret communications. Cryptography has been around for thousands of years. Cryptography has been around for thousands of years. Cryptography deals with authentication, confidentiality, and integrity of data. There are many different implementations of cryptography in information systems. This paper will cover hashing, encryption, digital signatures, and digital certificates. Cryptography dates back as early as the Egyptian Hieroglyphs that were carved
The word cryptography comes from the Greek word "Kryptos", that means hidden, and "Graphikos" which means writing. Cryptography or communication by using secret code was used by the Egyptians some 4000 years ago. However, the science of cryptography was initiated by Arabs since 600s. Cryptography becomes vital in the twentieth century where it played a crucial role in the World War I and II. Cryptographic
This chapter provides an overview of cryptography concept. It`s required to encrypt and maintain confidentiality of the information to be transmitted over the network. This is achieved through cryptography. Cryptography plays a vital role in securing the information when transmitted across the network. It helps in maintaining the integrity of the information stored on the network. Thus, security is one of the important concepts to be explored in the world of network security. Some of the security

Why of ECC? Elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) is a public key cryptography technique by making use of elliptic curve properties and their algebraic structure of over finite fields. It is one of the efficient ways of providing encryption of cryptographic keys. Elliptic curves as algebraic/geometric entities have been studied extensively for the past 150 years, and from these studies has emerged a rich and deep theory. Elliptic curve systems as applied to cryptography were first proposed in 1985 independently
I. INTRODUCTION The wrong message in wrong hands can alter the course of history. Fast forward to 1945, cryptography was rampant. The Germans were using Enigma machines, making it almost impossible for the Allies to decode their messages, or so they thought. Little did the Germans know that the Allies were able to decode it, exposing war plans and helping end the war. The Allies nicknamed all intelligence involving Germans “Ultra”. Using Ultra, Allies were able to find German naval and land positions
Cryptography is the science and art of transforming messages to make them immune to attacks. The reason for adopting cryptography in any system is to establish a secured communication platform when other people (eavesdroppers) are listening. In particular, main function of cryptography is to provide end to end security of edge nodes. Encryption can be performed using symmetric and asymmetric key cryptography techniques of which symmetric algorithms encrypt and decrypt a message using the same key
Ch 4 Encryption 4.1 Introduction Cryptography is the common term given to the art and science of keeping the text messages secret. It is not the purpose to evaluate in detail any of the mathematical algorithms that are used in the cryptographic process, but instead to provide a general view of the process and its uses. To introduce briefly one of the fundamental building blocks of all network security, one must know the process of encryption and decryption. A process that transforms the given information

systems must be protected against security threats that exploit vulnerabilities. Organizations must therefore impose appropriate controls to monitor for, deter and prevent security breaches. Three areas have been considered, in a typical sense, as the basic critical security requirements for data protection: confidentiality is used to assure privacy; principles of integrity assure systems are changed in accordance with authorized practices; and, availability is applied to maintain proper system functions
values are same. Basic functioning of the ECC: Two very large primes are selected first and multiplied to obtain the maximum value limit. Public key is selected as a random number between zero and maximum value. Using extended Euclidian algorithm a private key is generated for the public key. Multiplying the selected number by itself (pub times) and rounding of the value based on maximum encrypts the message.To decrypt, the encrypted message is multiplied by itself priv key times (priv times)
RosettaNet Implementation Framework (RNIF) The RosettaNet Implementation Framework, abbreviated as RNIF, defines implementation guidelines for creating software applications which allow reliable transport of PIPs in XML-format business documents between trading partners. RNIF is a robust routing, packaging and security standard created by the RosettaNett consortium to define the way in which a RosettaNet message must be transported, thus providing the underlying service protocol for implementing
