RSA CRYPTOSYSTEM WITH EXAMPLE SETUPStep 1: Choose two primes:- p=3 , q=11 [for encrypting small message]Step 2: n=p*q=3*11=33Step 3: phi or ɸ(n)=(p-1)(q-1)=(3-1)(11-1)=2*10=20Step 4: Choose e i.e., public exponent/encryption exponent e must 1) be an integer 2) not be a factor of n 3) 1<e<ɸ (n) Let, e=7Step 5: Calculate d i.e., secret exponent/decryption exponent (d*e)mod ɸ(n) = 1 (d*7)mod 20=1 => d=3KEYSPublic Key: KE=( n, e)=(91,7)Private Key: KD=d=3ENCRYPTIONLet’s encrypt “BE” where B=2 and E=5 alphabetically.1<M<n is a condition to encrypt messages within a range.So, the plaintext, M=25.Cipher text, C=M^e mod n= 25^7 mod 33=31DECRYPTIONM=C^d mod n= 31^3 mod 33=25 = “BE”.

RECENT SCHEMES OF CLOUD ENCRYPTION

1. Rashmi Nigoti et. al[1] have surveyed different security issues to cloud and different cryptographic algorithms adoptable to better security for the cloud and the benefits of cloud storage viz. easy access , scalability, cost efficiency, and high reliability of the data.

2. Brian Hay et. al [2] have focused on data authentication, data integrity, querying and outsourcing the encrypted data.

3. Ashalatha R [3] discussed in her paper about the significance of data security and the various existing security techniques for the cloud.

4. S.Monikandan et.al[4] proposed a new cloud cryptography technique . It conveys that since the user has no control over the data once their session is logged out, the encryption key acts as the primary authentication for the user. By applying this encryption algorithm, user ensures that the data is stored only on secured storage and it cannot be accessed by administrators or intruders.

5. Rajeev Bedi et.al[5] developed a retrieval system in which the data is retrieved by the user in encrypted form and is decrypted by the user at its own site using a public and private key encryption both the keys working at the user level.

CONCLUSION AND FUTURE SCOPESecurity is a major requirement in cloud computing while we talk about data storage. There are number of existing techniques used to implement security in cloud. So in this presentation, I have discussed the popularly used symmetric and asymmetric algorithms of cloud encryption techniques.

The future will focusing on – More strong security algorithms and implement a better version of DES, RSA , etc. New security techniques need to be developed and older security techniques needed to be radically tweaked to be able to work with the clouds architecture. As the development of cloud computing technology is still under R&D, there will be more better understanding of the design challenges of cloud computing, and pave the way for further research in this area.
