Abstract

With the fast progression of digital data exchange information security has become an important issue in data communication. Encryption algorithms play an important role in information security system. These algorithms use techniques to enhance the data confidentiality and privacy by making the information indecipherable which can be only be decoded or decrypted by party those possesses the associated key. But at the same time, these algorithms consume a significant amount of computing resources such as CPU time, memory, and battery power. So we need to evaluate the performance of different cryptographic algorithms to find out best algorithm to use in future. This paper provides evaluation of both symmetric (AES, DES, Blowfish) as well as asymmetric (RSA) cryptographic algorithms by taking different types of files like Binary, text and image files. A comparison has been conducted for these encryption algorithms using evaluation parameters such as encryption time, decryption time and throughput. Simulation results are given to demonstrate the effectiveness of each.
