In an era dominated by digital communication and sensitive data exchange, the significance of robust cryptographic solutions cannot be overstated. As the demand for secure information transfer grows, the need for a unified platform integrating various cryptographic algorithms becomes increasingly paramount. This Repository introduces an open-source project – a Graphic User Interface (GUI) platform built through a Java application using the WindowBuilder tool that amalgamates diverse cryptographic algorithms such as RSA, AES, and other related operations, implemented by contributors, contributors can contribute by uploading their encryption algorithms through GitHub.
-
Versatility and Interoperability: Our platform addresses the challenge of managing multiple cryptographic algorithms by providing a centralized interface, allowing users to seamlessly navigate through various protocols. This versatility enhances interoperability across different systems and applications.
-
Security Enhancement: By consolidating a spectrum of cryptographic algorithms, the platform empowers users with the ability to select and combine protocols strategically. This not only fortifies the security of sensitive data but also allows for the adaptation of encryption strategies based on specific use cases and evolving
threats. -
User-Friendly Experience: The GUI design of the platform ensures that even users with limited cryptographic expertise can harness the power of advanced algorithms effortlessly. This democratization of cryptographic tools fosters wider adoption and promotes secure practices across diverse user profiles.
-
Community Support By creating an open-source project, we can build a community of like-minded individuals who share our passion for security. This can lead to new opportunities for collaboration, learning, and growth.

Tip
Put your algorithm brief inside HTML brackets for a better user experience, as shown following 👉 , <HTML> Example brief </HTML>
Object[][] ArrayOfAlgorithms = {
{ "Example Algorithm", }, // Algorithm name, String
{ "Example Brief", }, // Algorithm brief (also write the required format of writing the keys), String
{ 1, } // Maximum number of keys of your algorithm, Integer
};getKeyValue() // Call this method, it will return an array of key valuesString plain_text = inputtext.getText() // now you stored user input into plain_text variableTip
Try to show errors in all the scenarios, when the user types the Text/key in the wrong format, or when something unpredictable happened, and so on.
Error("Add here the text of your error") // Just call the Error() function with your message as a parameter and it will be displayed to the userresults.setText("Write here the results of your algorithm")After implementing your algorithm within a method, you must perform the next two steps.
Important
It is better to include a parameter on each button to know where the call came from (from encrypt button or decrypt button)
// Encrypt button
JButton EncBtn = new JButton("Encrypt");
EncBtn.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
switch (ChooseAlgorithm.getSelectedItem().toString()) {
case "Example Algorithm": // write here the same name of the algorithm that you wrote in line 74
// Call here your algorithm function
break;
}
}
});// Decrypt button
JButton DecBtn = new JButton("Decrypt");
DecBtn.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
switch (ChooseAlgorithm.getSelectedItem().toString()) {
case "Example Algorithm": // write here the same name of the algorithm that you wrote in line 74
// Call here your algorithm function
break;
}
}
});// HMAC Button
JButton HmacBtn = new JButton("HMAC");
HmacBtn.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
// Here implement HMAC Algorithm
}
});// Digital Signature Button
JButton DSBtn = new JButton("Digital Signature");
DSBtn.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
// Here implement the Digital Signature Algorithm
}
});// Hash Button
JButton HashBtn = new JButton("HASH");
HashBtn.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
// Here Implement the Hash algorithm
}
});- You Should push your code on
GitHubusinggit - then make a
pull requestto get your code solution as the figure
Thanks to all the contributors who uploaded the algorithms.
