Time Performance Analysis of RSA and Elgamal Public Key Cryptosystems

Computer and network security system are needed to protect data during their transmissions and to guarantee that data are authentic. Cryptography is useful not only for proving data to be secure but also for ensuring that data have not altered. So, it is needed to implement the public key cryptosystem in computer and network security system. In cryptography, symmetric key cryptosystems are faster than public key asymmetric cryptosystems. But public key cryptosystems are more secure than symmetric key cryptosystems and widely used in computer and network security system. This describes the comparison of RSA Rivest, Shame, Adelman public key cryptosystem and ElGamal public key cryptosystem. RSA public key cryptosystem is faster than ElGamal in encryption and decryption. This paper also describes the encryption decryption time comparison of RSA and ElGamal.
