  • Patent number: 10567351
    Abstract: The present invention provides a simple and efficient cipher and key generation and selection capability from a predetermined, randomly changing, fixed size matrix (N) of ciphers and keys resulting in a very high-order approximation (Nr,c??) of a true One Time Pad for encryption solutions such as the CipherLoc Polymorphic Key Progression Algorithmic Cipher Engine. The ciphers are randomly selected from a pool of user supplied ciphers, FIPS 140-2 or other certified ciphers and the keys are produced from various methods for generating a key that includes reading a data stream from a network or a Cryptographic Pseudo Random Number Generator (CPRNG)/Pseudo Random Number Generator (PRNG) or a Predetermined Cryptographic Key Generator (PCKG) or any combination of all. Ciphers and generated keys are randomly paired and stored in a volatile matrix for use by an encryption solution.
