Passive RFID Encryption and Decryption using CLI

The implementation of the concept of RFID encryption to make a system that prevents the attack on the data of any user or organization on the cloud. The built application has a command line interface. The command line interface is used here instead of a web server to prevent data leakage during data transmission and reduce the risk of a rogue web server. The command line interface takes in an input image and encrypts it, producing an encrypted image and a key file. The CLI also decrypts the previously encrypted image using the key file. This app as a whole solves the problem of users and organizations that store images on the cloud, using this app the user can store encrypted images on the web while the low storage key file is on the user/organization’s on-site server. This provides a 2-tier security mechanism via which an adversary will need to hack both the organization server and the cloud server to compromise the data, this way the image data is secure without any additional cost or overhead to the organization. an RFID encryption algorithm is developed along with a non-network-based CLI that secures the organization's RFID data and helps implement a secure cloud-bursting architecture. In this project, an algorithm is developed by combining both the XOR-based encryption algorithm and non-network-based CLI to secure the RFID of the user/organization. Most encryption algorithms nowadays use web-based servers to encrypt the RFID and produce the key file. This makes web-based encryption insecure and vulnerable to a man-in-the-middle attack. Therefore, this app comes to the rescue as it provides a non-network-based CLI by which there is no need for the actual RFID to go outside of the local machine, thus making this app and its architecture secure and robust.
