Blowfish Algorithm Implementation on Electronic Data in a Communication Network

Data, information, and knowledge are valuable assets of most business organizations. Protecting and securing these assets is crucial to their success. Computer security systems have increasingly become an integral part of the digital business. These systems have been used to safeguard key assets of enterprises from computer security threats. Secured storage and transmission of electronic data over a communication network can only be achieved through the use of cryptography techniques that offer strong data protection. In this paper, the researchers illustrate the design and implementation of a newly developed security system based on the Blowfish algorithm. The algorithm was tested with different types of electronic data to prove its time efficiency and accuracy. The results were gathered from small data and the next direction of this research is to simulate the system with big data.
