Abstract

Securing a communication is always a challenge for participants in it. A lot of applications available in the market claim to enable secure audio communication, but not always show the details of the technology used behind to encrypt the data. It is important for end users to understand the techniques used for encrypting the data, in order to trust it. Elliptic curve cryptography, an approach to public key cryptography, is now widely used in cryptographic systems. Hence, in this paper we propose using elliptic curve cryptography to secure the transmission of voice messages through the network. The system that is proposed and implemented enables the encryption of the voice message, its transmission through the network and its decryption at the other end.
