Abstract

With the passage of time networking field has become much more advanced. Because of this advancement, the communicating parties don't want to rely on the third party for communication because a third party may misuse or share their personal information with someone else. That’s why there is a need for such a method at which we can rely on secure communication. In recent years a lot of cryptographic techniques based on ASCII values have been proposed, but selecting an efficient and effective technique from them is a big task. In this paper, we have made a comparison among several techniques based on certain parameters to find out the best one for the ease of the users.
