Encryption Using Double Vertex Graph and Matrices
Abstract
Cryptography is a science of protecting information in a communication network by transforming it into a secure format. It is one of the growing fields with a lot of developments using many mathematical topics like algebra, number theory etc. Now a days graph theory techniques are employed in cryptography to transfer the information more securely in a communication network, as the knowledge of graph theory is essential for hacking. In this paper, we proposed a new symmetric encryption algorithm to generate a crypt text using a shared key, applying the concept of path graph, double vertex graph along with some algorithmic concepts.
Keywords-Double vertex graphs; path; adjacency matrix; encryption; cryptograph
