Introduction

The Cloud Service Provider (CSP) has full control of the outsourced data;
it may learn some additional information from that data therefore some
problems arise in the circumstance.
To maintain the security of the data access control rights, restrictions and
privileges for an individual are established.
The sensitive data is encrypted before outsourcing to the cloud.
Efficient and reliable ciphertext encryption techniques.

The Blowfish Encryption Algorithm

Blowfish is a symmetric block cipher of 64-bit block.

Each 64-bit block is divided into two 32-bit blocks and the encryption of
each block is performed by performing 16 rounds of encryption.
It takes a variable-length key, from 32 bits to 448 bits.
It can be used as a replacement for DES or IDEA.
Blowfish is unpatented and license-free, and is available free for all uses.

Features of Blowfish encryption

Fast: It encrypts data on large 32-bit microprocessors at a rate of 26

clock cycles per byte.
Compact: It can run in less than 5 MB of memory.
Simple: It uses addition, XOR, lookup table with 32-bit operands.
Secure: The key length is variable, it can be in the range of 32 ∼ 448
bits: default 128 bits key length.

Algorithm: Blowfish Encryption

Input: a 64-bit data element, x

Divide x into two 32-bit halves: xL, xR

For i=1 to 16
xL = xL XOR Pi
xR = F(xL) XOR xR
Swap xL and xR
Next i
Swap xL and xR (Undo the last swap)
xR = xR XOR P17
xL = xL XOR P18
Recombine xL and xR
End

Function module (F)

Divide xL into four 8-bit quarters named a, b, c and d.

F(xL) = ((S1,a + S2,b mod 232 ) XOR S3,c) + S4,d mod 232

Advantages of Blowfish Algorithm

Blowfish is better than other algorithms in throughput and power

consumption.
No attack is known to be successful against this.
It requires less processing time as compared to other algorithms.
This algorithm can be used in anything from file/folder encryption to
encrypting HTTP traffic.

Conclusion

Thus we can conclude that Blowfish Encryption Algorithm is efficient

than other symmetric key encryption algorithms in terms of processing time,
throughput and power consumption. And main thing of it is that it is free to
use.
