A Model for Encryption of a Text Phrase using Genetic Algorithm

In any organization it is an essential task to protect the data from unauthorized users. Information Systems hardware, software, networks, and data resources need to be protected and secured to ensure quality, performance, and integrity. Security management deals with the accuracy, integrity, and safety of information resources. When effective security measures are in place, they can reduce errors, fraud, and losses. In the current work, the authors have proposed a model for encryption of a text phrase employing genetic algorithm. The entropy inherently available in genetic algorithm is exploited for introducing chaos in a text phrase thereby rendering it unreadable. The no of cross over points and mutation points decides the strength of the algorithm. The prototype of the model is implemented for testing the operational feasibility of the model and the few test cases are presented Dr. Poornima G. Naik | Mr. Pandurang M. More | Dr. Girish R.
