Abstract: A method for encoding/decoding a message with One Time Pad (OTP) process, includes receiving a message to be encoded and an ordered dataset. A PRNG is parameterized with an initial seed that is used in a harvesting operation, which selects data from the dataset to create a current entropy plane of the selected data. In an encoding operation a portion of the received message is selected. The current entropy plane is scanned and data from which data is selected. The location of the selected data from the entropy plane is determined and marked as used and then assembled in an encoded message. This operation is repeated until no unmarked data is present in the current entropy plane. A new entropy plane is generated, and the scanning operation repeated until all portions of the received message have been processed. The process is reversed for a decoding operation.

Abstract: A system is disclosed for securely communicating between a user device and a target device, which includes a user input receiving user inputs and a user device memory for storing at least one fixed dataset having a plurality of data bits and an inherent entropy. At least one predetermined harvest process is stored in ser device memory, which is operable within a main harvest process to distill the dataset to a predetermined bit length to define a private key of the user at a predetermined key length.

Abstract: A secure communication system is disclosed for communication between first and second party devices. An input interface is provided for receiving from an external host a unique host factor in addition to a user input interface for receiving from a user a unique PIN for a user and a selection input for selecting one of the plurality of stored entropy stores as a user selected entropy store A first private key generator is operable for generating a private key using a key generation algorithm requiring the selected entropy store, the host factor and the unique user PIN. The second party device includes a second storage device for storing a plurality of entropy stores. An input interface is provided for receiving the same unique host factor as received by the first party device. A communication interface facilitates communication with the first party device to receive from the first party device a user PIN and an indication of the user selected entropy store.
