Evaluation of Common Encryption Algorithm and Scope of Advanced Algorithm for Simulated Wireless Network

Abstract -Encryption algorithms play a vital role in information security systems. The study discovers the progress of Encryption algorithms in terms of their diversity of applications. Some of the Encryption algorithms have been developed to make transmission and storage of data more secured and confidential. Different levels of securities are offered by different algorithms depending on how difficult is to break them. If it is difficult to recover the plain text in spite of having substantial amount of cipher text then an algorithm is unconditionally secured. This study provides evaluation of eight of the most common encryption algorithms namely: DES, 3DES, AES (Rijndael), Blowfish, RSA, RC2, RC4, and RC6. From our analysis we came to conclusion that the best algorithm is the one which fulfills our need of security and speed. We come with new design of encryption algorithm based on AES or RSA or RC4, various scripts on NS2 or MATLAB or SCILAB, simulation environment of encrypted wireless network based on NS2 or MATLAB or SCILAB. We will implement newly proposed encryption algorithm on simulated environment and also test performance of proposed algorithm on wireless simulated network. We come with design and implement technique to store encrypted data on secondary storage device
