A Hybrid Encryption Approach for Secured Authentication and Enhancement in Confidentiality of Data

摘要

currently, data security issues are remaining as a major concern during digital communication. A large amount of crucial data is transmitted through the communication channel. There are many cryptographic algorithms available, which are used for providing data security during communication and storage process. However, the data needs to be decrypted for performing operations, which may lead to elevation of the privilege of data. The pin or passwords used for decryption of data can be easily identified using a brute force attack. This leads to losing the confidentiality of crucial data to an unauthorized user. In the proposed system, a combination of Homomorphic and Honey encryption is used to improve data confidentiality and user authentication problems. Thus, the system provides better data security for the issues related to outsourced databases.
