In this paper, an articulation of encryption and authentication system for the purpose of information security in multimedia communication system is proposed. This technique is based on approach which merges an encryption algorithm: AES, the block cipher algorithm and proposed authentication technique. This technique provides a dual factor to secure data. This can help in restrict the confidential data of user to restricted persons only. This not only saves time but also reduces overhead of decrypting any falsely acquired data as it is easy to check and verify hash beforehand. Also, comparison of the proposed scheme with others is given in this paper.
