GBHE: Grid-Based Cryptography with AES Algorithm

In this paper, we propose and develop grid-based hyper encryption (GBHE) application that uses the computational resources of multiple desktop PCs in order to encrypt/decrypt large data files with one of the most efficient and secure encryption algorithms, the advanced encryption standard (rijndael). Simplicity of use and high performance of GBHE makes it an ideal choice for deploying in any organization that needs this functionality. experimental results with different sizes of data files demonstrates that the proposed grid-based encryption system is able to perform with high efficiency and opens the way to use grid technology for encryption/decryption problems.
