Byte Rotation Encryption Algorithm through parallel processing and multi-core utilization

Abstract

Securing digital data has become tedious task as the technology is increasing. Existing encryption algorithms such as AES,DES and Blowfish ensure information security but consume lot of time as the security level increases. In this paper, Byte Rotation Encryption Algorithm (BREA) has implemented using parallel processing and multi-core utilization. BREA divides data into fixed size blocks. Each block is processed parallely using random number key. So the set of blocks are executed in parallel by utilizing all the available CPU cores. Finally, from the experimental analysis, it is observed that the proposed BREA algorithm reduces execution time when the number of cores has increased.
