A Research paper: An ASCII value based data encryption algorithm and its comparison with other symmetric data encryption algorithms
Journal Title: International Journal on Computer Science and Engineering - Year 2012, Vol 4, Issue 9
Abstract
Encryption is the process of transforming plaintext into the ciphertext where plaintext is the input to the encryption process and ciphertext is the output of the encryption process. Decryption is the process of transforming ciphertext into the plaintext where ciphertext is the input to the decryption process and plaintext is the output of the decryption process. There are various encryption algorithms exist classified as symmetric and asymmetric encryption algorithms. Here, I present an algorithm for data encryption and decryption which is based on ASCII values of characters in the plaintext. This algorithm is used to encrypt data by using ASCII values of the data to be encrypted. The secret used will be modifying o another string and that string is used as a key to encrypt or decrypt the data. So, it can be said that it is a kind of symmetric encryption algorithm because it uses same key for encryption and decryption but by slightly modifying it. This algorithm operates when the length of input and the length of key are same.
