Design and implementation of customized encryption platform for data security in open software environment

Abstract

In this paper, data types were defined in an open software environment for the design of an encryption platform for open software data security. Then the most appropriate encryption algorithm for such defined data types was analyzed and a data-type-conversion module was designed for the use of such encryption algorithm module as a platform. In addition, modules wherein the user could select an encryption algorithm that was easy to use were designed, and an encryption platform was realized by integrating such modules. In this paper, a motion compliance test of the designed and realized data encryption algorithm was performed, and the results confirmed that the designed algorithm was working precisely. In addition, the data-type-conversion module and the algorithm that selected the encryption algorithm were applied to the application and confirmed that they were working precisely. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2014.
