Abstract

Some enterprises, especially healthcare, require high level of security to protect both user and corporate privacy when consuming services on the mobile device. Thus, encryption-decryption methodologies have been employed over the years to secure the data in distributed mobile architectures. The concern that has been gravely ignored is the energy consumption cost of data encryption-decryption on battery-powered devices such as smartphones and tablets. In this work, we studied the energy consumption patterns of multiple encryption-decryption methodologies (including RSA, DES, and AES) in securing the electronic health records and argue that some methodologies do consume power more than others.
