DESIGN AN ALGORITHM FOR DATA ENCRYPTION USED IN HYBRID TECHNIQUE TO IMPLEMENTATION IN DATABASE

Abstract

Data encryption has evolved into a crucial component of information security in a time when digital data is proliferating. Strong encryption solutions are required because databases, which frequently hold sensitive and important data, are a prominent target for cyberattacks. In order to secure databases, this research suggests a unique hybrid encryption algorithm that makes use of both symmetric and asymmetric encryption techniques. The suggested method offers an effective and reliable data protection solution by combining the speed of symmetric encryption with the security of asymmetric encryption.

The program divides the data into blocks before encrypting each block individually using a symmetric encryption technique, such as Advanced Encryption Standard (AES). This method makes use of symmetric encryption's speedy ability to encrypt huge volumes of data. Then, taking use of RSA's ability to safely exchange keys across an unsecure network, the symmetric key used for this procedure is encrypted using an asymmetric encryption technique.

Our technique guarantees a robust encryption standard for data kept in databases by utilizing this hybrid approach, so raising the degree of security and safeguarding sensitive data from unapproved access and online dangers. The suggested hybrid method has further shown comparable computational efficiency, making it appropriate for settings with high data volume.

This study presents a detailed examination of the design, implementation, and performance of the proposed hybrid encryption method. Additionally, it looks at possible application fields, scalability, and viability in actual database systems. Last but not least, we go through the algorithm's comparative advantage over competing approaches and possible upgrades for further study.
