A Novel Symmetric Encryption Algorithm and its Implementation

Abstract

Confidentiality of digital data stored on computer systems or transmitted via computer networks is very important in the digital era and it can be addressed with a variety of solutions such as encryption. In this respect, in this study we propose a new encryption algorithm based on a number of mathematical terms, formulas and operations. The proposed algorithm is a general purpose symmetric encryption algorithm; hence, it can be used for various purposes. The proposed algorithm is implemented an application called Secure Text. Although the developed application encrypts text, the algorithm is suitable for encrypting several file types including .txt, .rtf, .doc, .docx, .xls, .xlsx, .ppt, .pptx, .pdf, .png, and .bmp. A set of evaluation study carried out using the developed application shows that although the proposed algorithm is simple and performs very quickly, it is complicated enough and robust against potential unorganized threats.
