Abstract
This research explores the concept of a hybrid security protocol that combines the strengths of different existing protocols to safeguard digital communication. An ideal protocol should maintain a balance between security and efficiency, which is accomplished with the help of combining various algorithms. Hybrid security protocol takes advantage of both symmetric and asymmetric algorithms. A hybrid protocol developed using AES and ECC and an additional encryption method, which in terms provide a more efficient and secure protocol and is validated by performing experiments on the developed and the existing protocols. The results of the research work gives a detailed insights about the efficiency and security of the hybrid protocols.
