To meet the demand of digitizing progress of pharmaceutical retail industry, there are various kinds of software are made for pharmaceutical retail enterprise. However, much commercial software on the market fails to meet the demand of data transmission safety. Therefore, a novel system was designed for medium size pharmaceutical retail enterprise with multiple branches. It is designed to digitize the process of retail operations including management of stock, order client, staff, product, branch and warehouse. Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) algorithm was used to secure the data transmission on the Internet. The system can be deployed 1 in pharmaceutical retailing, hospital prescriptions issues, pharmaceutical company management, medical supplies market, medical devices market and hospital staff management. With minor modification the system can be deployed to other retail or wholesale industry.

XTS-AES is a disk encryption mode of operation that uses the block cipher AES. Several studies have been conducted to improve the encryption speed using XTS-AES according to the increasing disk size. Among them, there are researches on parallel encryption of XTS-AES using GPU. Although these studies focus on parallel encryption of AES, optimization for the entire XTS mode has not been performed. The reason is that the α j computation process included in XTS mode is not suitable for parallel operation. Therefore, in this paper, we proposed several techniques for high-speed encryption in GPU by modifying XTS-AES into a form that is advantageous for parallel operation. The core idea is to pre-calculate the α j calculation on the CPU into a form that is easy to operate on the GPU. To achieve this goal, we analyzed the α j calculation process and present the parts that can be optimized. First, we presented a method that can replace multiple operations with a single table reference through the analyzed α j computation progress. Thereafter, we proposed a method that can be calculated by partially skipping the entire α j computation process that must be sequentially calculated through the table reference technique. For the proposed optimization implementation, we presented various results for evaluating the optimal implementation. In addition, we compared the performance of XTS-AES OpenSSL implementation on CPU and our proposed optimization implementation on GPU.

“…Another concern about implementing encryption as a security solution for smart gadgets is the performance issue. A security solution will not be accepted by consumers if it may cause tangible performance degradation [9][10][11][12]. Furthermore, the inclusion of multi-core CPUs and GPUs into small gadgets and low-power devices, such as smartphones, IoT, and embedded devices, can significantly help enhance device performance while ensuring data protection through encryption [13,14].…”

The pervasive proliferation of embedded, mobile, and IoT devices continue to change our lifestyle dramatically. However, the huge increase in these devices has come with critical breaches to data resting inside them. Many types of such data are considered to be sensitive and confidential. Because the most sensitive data of such devices are resting in databases, focusing on encrypting SQLite databases will be more efficient than full disk encryption (FDE). While SQLite is a very popular, lightweight, and easy-to-use relational database suitable for embedded and mobile devices, its stored data suffers serious security risks. If an attacker can gain access to higher system privileges or find a way to access the database plain file, he can tamper with the database files and user-sensitive data, which breaches the security CIA triad of SQLite. To ensure data confidentiality in SQLite databases of embedded devices, we present a design and implementation of a parallel database encryption system, called SQLite-XTS. The developed system encrypts the database pages on-the-fly in a transparent manner without user intervention. Because performance is a critical issue, SQLite-XTS utilizes multi-core processors coming with most current mobile and embedded devices. The developed parallel SQLite-XTS was successfully implemented and integrated into a testbed device. To assess the performance and feasibility of this system, it was compared to three other SQLite implementations: plain SQLite, serial XTS SQLite, and SQLCipher-CBC. The results show that SQLite-XTS reduces the overhead of database encryption from 30.8% with serial implementation to 17.8% when SQLite-XTS is used. This provides the developed system with an efficiency of 73% compared with its serial counterpart. The results clarify that SQLite-XTS introduces significant performance improvements compared to other implementations. Experiments also show that the system has a very low impact on the memory of these resource-limited devices.
