A Comprehensive Comparative Analysis of RSA-Based Cryptographic Security and Modern Authentication Techniques For Secure Question Paper Management

Abstract

The RSA algorithm is a widely used public-key cryptographic technique designed to ensure secure data transmission and authentication. Among the main strategies for ensuring information security is the application of cryptographic techniques. It must guarantee the confidentiality of the information in addition to offering digital signatures, authentication, secret sub-storage system security, and other features. Consequently, the encryption and decryption solution can guarantee the information's confidentiality, integrity, and certainty, preventing tampering, forgery, and counterfeiting. By guaranteeing that the content is private and unchangeable throughout transmission, the RSA algorithm is essential to improving the security of digital exam papers. Each question or the entire question paper is encrypted in this method, rendering it unintelligible to unauthorized users. Sensitive exam material is safeguarded against leaks and unauthorized access by limiting decryption and printing of the questions to approved individuals with access to the private key. This technique offered a dependable means of safeguarding and printing the question paper while preserving integrity and confidentiality by combining RSA with controlled decryption and secure storage.
