In this paper, different cryptography algorithms were reviewed, and their relative merits were discussed. Symmetric and asymmetric cryptography algorithms were compared for time and space efficiencies. These experiments were run to measure the execution time and the memory footprints of various algorithms to understand the implications of their real-life applications. In the experiment performed, it was observed that elliptic curve cryptography was the most efficient in terms of encryption/decryption time, as well as memory usage.
