The Internet is providing vital communications between millions of individuals. It is also more and more utilized as one of the commerce tools; thus, security is of high importance for securing communications and protecting vital information. Cryptography algorithms are essential in the field of security. Brute force attacks are the major Data Encryption Standard attacks. This is the main reason that warranted the need to use the improved structure of the Data Encryption Standard algorithm. This paper proposes a new, improved structure for Data Encryption Standard to make it secure and immune to attacks. The improved structure of Data Encryption Standard was accomplished using standard Data Encryption Standard with a new way of two key generations. This means the key generation system generates two keys: one is simple, and the other one is encrypted by using an improved Caesar algorithm. The encryption algorithm in the first 8 round uses simple key 1, and from round 9 to round 16, the algorithm uses encrypted key 2. Using the improved structure of the Data Encryption Standard algorithm, the results of this paper increase Data Encryption Standard encryption security, performance, and complexity of search compared with standard Data Encryption Standard. This means the Differential cryptanalysis cannot be performed on the cipher-text.

Day after day, the digital data sizes undergo rapid increases over Internet, it is significant; the data shouldn’t be accessed by the unauthorized users. The attackers attempt at accessing those sensitive part of the data. There is a necessity for the prevention of the unauthorized access of the data and guarantee the secure data exchange. A variety of the cryptographic approaches have been used for the conversion of the secret data of the users into secure ciphertext formats. The cryptographic methods have been based on, private and public keys. The researchers have worked on the efficient and secure transmission of data and presented a variety of the cryptographic approaches. For the efficient and secure transmission of the data over networks, there is a necessity of using hybrid approaches of encryption. In this article, various encryption methods are reviewed such as Rijndael, Number Theory Research Unit, Data Encryption Standard, 3 Data Encryption Standard, Elliptic Curve Cryptography, Rivest–Shamir–Adleman, Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding, Diffie-Hellman, HiSea, Improved Caesar, Digital Signature, and Advance Encryption Standard.
