Analysis of Most Common Encryption Algorithms

Abstract

As the things are settled down after the emergence of technology, and this is the decade of professionalism as far as technology is concerned, security of data is the major hurdle in this race. This is the era in which data is one click away from the users, so data needs to be more secured so that it can be avoided unauthorized access. For this purpose, different data security fields have also emerged to ensure data security and confidentiality. In this survey paper we will look up all the techniques used for data encryption and after that, we compare those techniques to provide the best algorithm to ensure that data is secured. We go categorically, as in most of the cases, symmetric encryption technique is applicable and, in a few cases, asymmetric is recommended. Firstly, in our study, we compare both the techniques with each other and then compare all the algorithms working under the above-mentioned categories concerning their time, efficiency, memory usage, latency, key size, and several rounds which will result in showing the best algorithm according to input data.
