This research focuses on the importance of data security in maintaining confidentiality, particularly for sensitive and critical information that should only be accessed by certain parties. Cryptography is a mathematical method used to secure data. Several methods are available, including ROT13, Vernam Cipher, and Stream Cipher. This study combines these three methods to achieve a higher level of data security. The analysis shows that the combination of these algorithms results in a stronger and more complex encryption process than using a single method. The process involves encrypting plaintext using ROT13, followed by encrypting the result using Vernam Cipher with an inputted key, and then encrypting the output again using Stream Cipher. The advantages of this combination model include enhanced data security, as demonstrated by the three-stage encryption and decryption process.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
