E-Mail Message Encryption Using Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) and Huffman Compression Engineering

摘要

E-mail is a means of sending messages electronically based online. Many students, institutions or companies use e-mail as a formal communication tool. However, please note that sending e-mails is done through public channels, namely the internet, making it possible to tap, manipulate data and leak information. Like hacking and theft of millions of unique ID (address) E-mail and passwords that occurred in mid-January 2019 by the digital attackers. E-mail does not have security on the data sent. Implementation of encrypted messages in e-mails with cryptographic methods can be a solution for securing the data sent. In this study used the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) and Huffman methods. The final result of this study is the occurrence of text messages using the AES and Huffman methods can be done up to 32.200 characters with an accuracy value of 90.62% and the difference in the performance time of encryption and decryption is 1% with the decryption process a little longer than the encryption process.
