Description
Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) or
Rijndael is a symmetric key cryptographic
algorithm developed by National Institute of
protect classified information which was
implemented on both hardware as well
software throughout the world. AES is a
symmetric block cipher technique. The size of
the plain and the cipher text is the same. Since
it is a private key encryption technique, only a
single key can encrypt and decrypt the data.
AES is very much in application today as it has
enhanced strength as compared to both DES
and 3DES despite being harder to implement.

The plain data has been encrypted in two stages; AES
encryption followed by Blowfish encryption
algorithm thereby making it more robust and secure.
Blowfish is a fit choice for AES to make a hybrid
algorithm as the security of AES is enhanced without
much compromise of the speed. Both of them are a
symmetric key algorithm making their hybrid
symmetric too. Thus, the final encrypted data can
only be accessed using the private key.

man in the middle attacks.
• Data encryption can be either software or hardware based, the latter is considered safer than the
previous one. Many symmetric and asymmetric algorithms are used for data encryption and
decryption.

 Objectives
AES is one of the most secure algorithm techniques used in government computer security and
electronic data protection.

Though AES is secure, it can still be improved to avoid the attacks that can occur due to the vulnerability
of its S-Box.

Hybrid algorithms are used to overcome the limitations of Cryptographic algorithms. A hybrid of AES and
Blowfish Algorithms has been discussed here.

Both of the algorithms combined together provides a better throughput than individual implementation
of AES and Blowfish Algorithms.

Blowfish encryption and decryption technique, developed by Bruce Schneier in 1993 is a 64-bit block size
and variable key length ciphering method, which happens to be an alternative to the DES (Data
Encryption Standard) technique as it provides enhanced encryption rate and improved speed as
compared to DES and 3DES. Its variable key length of maximum 446 bits enables high security layers and
hence it becomes difficult to crack. Till date no deciphering or cryptanalysis method for Blowfish has
been found.

 Advantages

Resistance to Different Attacks: Combining Blowfish and AES increases the resistance to various cryptographic attacks.
Blowfish is known for its resistance against differential and linear cryptanalysis, while AES provides strong
resistance against known attacks. The hybrid algorithm can mitigate vulnerabilities present in individual algorithms
and provide a higher level of overall security.
Compatibility: Both Blowfish and AES are widely implemented and supported in various cryptographic libraries,
frameworks, and hardware. The hybrid algorithm, built upon these established algorithms, can ensure
compatibility with existing systems and infrastructure, making it easier to integrate into different applications and
environments.
Future-Proofing: By combining two strong encryption algorithms, the hybrid algorithm can offer a certain level of
future-proofing. If one of the algorithms is compromised or becomes less secure in the future, the hybrid approach
can still maintain a higher level of security due to the presence of the other algorithm.
Industry Recognition and Trust: Blowfish and AES are well-known and respected encryption algorithms in the
industry. The hybrid algorithm combining these algorithms can inherit the trust and recognition associated with
both, making it more appealing for organizations and users seeking secure encryption solutions.

 Future Scope
Stronger Security: Combining the strengths of both Blowfish and AES, the hybrid algorithm can provide stronger
security against various cryptographic attacks. As technology advances, new attack vectors may emerge, and a hybrid
approach can mitigate vulnerabilities present in individual algorithms, making it more resistant to attacks.
Performance Optimization: The hybrid algorithm can be designed to optimize performance by leveraging the efficient
aspects of Blowfish and AES. By utilizing Blowfish for certain operations and AES for others, the algorithm can
achieve a balance between speed and security, enhancing encryption and decryption performance.
Flexibility and Adaptability: The hybrid algorithm can provide flexibility in choosing the appropriate encryption
method based on specific requirements or constraints. It can be designed to dynamically switch between Blowfish and
AES based on factors such as data size, encryption mode, or security level needed, allowing for adaptability in
different scenarios.
Key Management and Distribution: Hybrid algorithms can offer improved key management and distribution
mechanisms. By combining Blowfish and AES, the algorithm can utilize different encryption techniques for key
management, enhancing the overall security of cryptographic keys and ensuring robust key distribution protocols.
Resistance to Future Attacks: As new attack methods and vulnerabilities are discovered, the hybrid algorithm can
evolve to address these threats. By regularly evaluating the security landscape and updating the hybrid algorithm
accordingly, it can maintain resistance against emerging attacks, ensuring long-term security.
Standardization and Adoption: If the hybrid algorithm demonstrates superior security and performance compared to
existing encryption algorithms, it could be considered for standardization and adoption by regulatory bodies and
industry standards organizations. This could lead to its widespread implementation in various applications and systems,
