Abstract

This paper aims to provide a comparative analysis of the probabilistic versus the deterministic security models. We provide a benchmark by practically implementing and comparing three ciphers - probabilistic cipher (PC), RSA, and ECC. This paper provides the algorithms to implement these ciphers as well as highlights the operating time and performance of our implementation for varying key sizes of 128/1024, 160/2048, and 192/4096 bits. We target our implementation to justify if the probabilistic model can perform equivalently against the deterministic model so as to be considered to be used in more practical scenarios today.
