Abstract

E0 algorithm is the most popular which used for data transmission Bluetooth communication among devices. E0 is having a 128-bit of symmetric stream cipher key length. Many types of attacks at Bluetooth protocol and cryptanalysis of E0 has proved that it would be broken by using 264 operations. In this work, we have proposed hybrid encryption based on blowfish and md5 algorithms to im-prove the security of transferring data between two computers connected using Bluetooth technique. Because of the advantages of key management of the MD5 algorithm, we used it to encrypt the secret key of Blowfish algorithm which used for encryption of plaintext. Therefore, the proposed hybrid encryption (Blowfish and MD5) will positively improve the data security during communication in Bluetooth media.
