Abstract
ENSURING DATA AND INFORMATION SECURITY WITH AN IMPROVED HASH-BASED MESSAGE AUTHENTICATION CODE (HMAC)
Sandeep Dhawan*
ABSTRACT
Data and information security are very important in the present digital world. There have been frequent cases of data leakages due to unauthorized access, data corruption, etc. Tampering messages between two or multiple parties is a common cybersecurity threat at present. Hackers often manage to break strong security measures nowadays. That?s why this paper has proposed an improved Hash-based Message Authentication Code (HMAC) to prevent leakage of messages between two or multiple parties. The HMAC technique has been developed based on a hash function and secret key. The improved mapping algorithm used in the hash function and the secret key can make the HMAC technique very strong to prevent any type of data and information leakage. Relevant applications, future improvements, and limitations of HMAC have also been discussed in this paper.
