RSA and elliptic curve encryption system : a systematic literature review

Abstract

Almost every living species has a motive to communicate electronically with one another and preserve data for immediate or future use. These data are becoming too large to be maintained on personal storage devices. Technological innovation has cleared the path for vast, remote storage known as the cloud. This innovation is being provided as a service to people and organizations due to the high cost of investment and the high-tech skills needed for its maintenance. Despite the many benefits of cloud computing, data privacy, integrity, and access control are issues that require immediate attention. Many studies have been conducted in order to find solutions to these challenges. In this review, the authors look at the numerous methods that have been proposed to address these security challenges. The research revealed that elliptic curve cryptography and the advance encryption system (AES) were the techniques that were most frequently used to address security issues in the digital world.
