Abstract

The hacking is the greatest problem in the wireless local area network (WLAN). Many algorithms like RC6,UMARAM,DES,3DES,RC2 and UR5 have been used to prevent the outside attacks to eavesdrop or prevent the data to be transferred to the end-user correctly. In this paper, we study the six most common and popular symmetric cryptographic algorithms like RC6,UMARAM,DES,3DES,RC2 and UR5. We analyze their security issues and then compare their efficiency for encrypting text and image across different widely used Operating Systems like Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7. The simulation results concluded the performance of most common encryption across the different platforms . Which algorithm performs better on which operating system for encrypting what kind of data.
