Abstract
A method for securely encrypting and decrypting data wherein a function is processed to obtain a raw key that is an irrational or transcendental number. A sending computing device applies a starting point and length to obtain a shortened key used for encryption. A receiving computing device identifies the function from a received identifier and applies the starting point and length to a mirroring raw key to derive the decryption key.
Claims10
A method of generating and storing encryption keys, comprising:
- selecting, by a sending computing device, a function;
- solving, by the sending computing device, the function to obtain a raw key, wherein the raw key is one of an irrational number or a transcendental number;
- selecting, by the sending computing device, a starting point designating at least one start digit within the raw key and a length indicating an amount of digits after the at least one start digit;
- applying the starting point and length to the raw key to generate a shortened key;
- encrypting a message with the shortened key;
- and
- storing the selected function, the starting point and length in a memory.
