Abstract

Presently, one of the most efficient forms of communication between people is mobile messaging applications, which provide a range of interesting services. Therefore, there are different level of chances that data attacks may occur and there are increase in vulnerabilities.

Therefore, there is a need for secure messaging protocol for an encrypted communication to overcome these shortcomings and risk of data attacks. Many researchers have researched on different messaging protocols and the algorithm that provide end-to-end encryption.

This research is carried out to measure the complexity of the cryptographic algorithms which are used for secure messaging and provide end-to-end encryption. Time and Space complexity of the three cryptographic algorithms used, AES, RSA and Double-Ratchet is measured. The complexity is measured with reference to the parameters of memory usage and the time taken by the algorithm.
