this paper a theory of secrecy systems is developed. The approach is on a theoretical level and is intended to complement the treatment found in standard works on cryptography2. There‚ a detailed study is made of the many standard types of codes and ciphers‚ and of the ways of breaking them. We will be more concerned with the general mathematical structure and properties of secrecy systems. The treatment is limited in certain ways. First‚ there are three general types of secrecy system: (1) concealment

Cryptography is derived from the Greek words kryptos meaning “hidden” and graphien‚ meaning “to write/study”. The process of making and using codes to secure the transmission of information is called cryptography. Before modern era cryptography was synonymous to encryption but today cryptography is heavily based on mathematical theory and computer science practice. Cryptography today deals with the ways to transfer information in such a manner that no one beside the recipients can read what was actually

Introduction - Introduce myself and welcome to Encryption – USB/Flash drive - My background in the IT industry Body • Why do we want encrypt our flash drive? You may ask yourself. • I don’t know about you but I have lost one or two flash drive within the past 2 months and fortunately they did not have important information. • Don’t get me wrong flash drives are great for transporting files and documents back and forth from office to home. But flash drives are easily forgotten in the USB port

M2 - Explain the way that data transmitted over a network can be protected by encryption. Below‚ I will explain the way that data transmitted over a network can be encrypted to provide protection. I will explain what encryption entails‚ how data is transmitted‚ and why it is important to encrypt private data to ensure its protection. What Does Encryption Entail and How Does It Work? Encryption entails rearranging data in such a way that only the owner of both the encryption and decryption

Locard’s Exchange Principle and the use of Fingerprints: Edmond Locard (1877-1966) was a French scientist specialised in both medicine and law. Inspired by the work of Hans Gross‚ it was Edmond that created the concept that all objects of any material should leave traces of itself upon whatever it touches‚ even if it is the minutest amount‚ simply put as “Every Contact leaves a trace‚” Locard (1923). This is commonly known as Locard’s Exchange Principle. He believed that in circumstances such as

Authentication Header is used to prove the identity of the sender and ensure the data is not tampered with. A Encapsulated Security Payload provides authentication and encryption and encrypts the IP packets and ensures their integrity. 4. 1. Create Enrollment Object 2. Set Enrollment Parameters 3. Create

Last year there were several high profile cases including General Electric‚ Starbucks‚ Ford and the Veterans Administration that involved the loss of personal information from hardware devices‚ in particularly the laptop. The very nature of the laptop (as well as other highly portable hardware devices) increases the likelihood of them being stolen or lost. Hardware that is stolen or lost (including optical discs‚ hard drives and tapes) are always disconcerting however‚ with tremendous amounts of

Explain the difference between secret and public keys. Encryption can be a useful deterrent in keeping sensitive information out of the hands of those not authorized and for maintaining the security of a network. Some encryption schemes utilize a secret key and a public key. Each person on the protected network has both a public and a secret key. Everyone who wants to be able to send encrypted information to another person on the network uses the public key. The recipient then uses a secret key

III. DIFFIE-HELLMAN KEY EXCHANGE ALGORITHM Hilter kilter Encryption of information requires exchange of cryptographic private key. The most difficult part in this sort of encryption is the exchange of the encryption key from sender to beneficiary without anybody capturing this key in the middle. This exchange or rather era on same cryptographic keys at both sides cryptically was made conceivable by the Diffie-Hellman calculation. The Diffie-Hellman calculation was produced by Whitfield Diffie and
