Novel secure data protection scheme using Martino homomorphic encryption

Journal of Cloud Computing, Volume 12, No. 1, Article 47, Year 2023

Globally, data maintenance and its security are vital tasks due to the rapid development of advanced technologies. Users now utilise Cloud computing technique and security techniques to preserve their data securely from intruders and hackers. Even yet, because of the technology's rapid advancement and inherent insecurity, attackers are conducting assaults on the cloud data. Hence, a homomorphic encryption technique was proposed based on Matrix Transformations with shifts, rotations, and transpositions of Binary converted ASCII values of each character in the plain text. For both encryption and decryption, symmetric cryptography employs the same secret key. The “avalanche effect” is a desirable feature of symmetric encryption in which two distinct keys generate separate cipher texts for the same message. As there are different conditions for the key, it helps to achieve this effect in this technique. The suggested algorithm's cryptanalysis reveals that it is more powerful than the existing encryption methods and resistant to a variety of attacks. So that an attacker cannot easily predict a plaintext through a statistical analysis.
