#Image Cryptography Using RSA Algorithm in Network Security
Introduction In today’s digital era, ensuring the security and authenticity of data transmitted over the internet is of utmost importance. Image Cryptography provides a specialized encryption technique to conceal data within an image, ensuring secure transmission and preventing unauthorized access. This project utilizes the RSA Algorithm, a widely used encryption and authentication algorithm, to encrypt and decrypt image files.
Purpose The purpose of this project is to demonstrate the effectiveness of image cryptography using the RSA Algorithm in securing data transmission over networks. Key objectives include:
Providing confidentiality, authentication, integrity, non-repudiation, and access control for transmitted data. Enhancing security measures to protect confidential information such as financial data, medical records, and military communications. Functionality The functionality of image cryptography using the RSA Algorithm involves the following steps:
Key Generation: Generating public and private keys for encryption and decryption. Encryption: Encrypting the original image using the public key. Decryption: Decrypting the encrypted image using the private key.
