Abstract: A system and method of securely generating encryption keys that includes a computing device obtaining a seed and applying a first function to the seed to derive a first sequence of digits. A second function is then used to obtain a second sequence of digits from the first sequence of digits at a predetermined start position. The encryption key is derived from the resulting second sequence of digits.

Abstract: A method of encrypting and decrypting multiple individual pieces or sets of data in which a computing device randomly selects a group of seeds that it then uses to generate irrational numbers. Sections of the generated irrational numbers can be used as one-time pads or keys to encrypt the corresponding data sets. Intended recipients can then reverse the process using their allowed keys to access data for which they have authorization.

Abstract: A system that generates a blockchain for a user wherein each block in the chain contains encrypted information associated with the user. The information in each block is encrypted and decrypted by a key that is generated based on a function, a starting point and a length that is shared with participants that have access to the data in each block. The access can be controlled with granularity by the owner of the information without having cumbersome passkey management.

The confined plasma antenna also pulses the carrier wave at a sonic frequency, f, to create a sonic wave. In detail, pulsing the carrier wave results in a sequential plurality of solitons which are separated from each other by a periodicity p, wherein ?«p.

Abstract: A method for securely encrypting and decrypting data in a blockchain, wherein a node member of a network involved in executing a state transition function for the blockchain, uses a key derived from a sequence of digits in an irrational number. The irrational number can derive from a ratio and/or a root, and preferably a square root of a non-perfect square. A key might or might not utilize the entirety of the sequence of digits. For example, the key might utilize every other or every third digit in the sequence. A key might alternatively include some or all of the sequence, with one or more additional characters or digits added to the beginning or end of the sequence, or included elsewhere within the sequence. A key might even utilize non-consecutive members of the sequence of digits, or perhaps a reverse or partially reversed sequence.

Abstract: A numeric string of information is encoded into a graphic using first and second lines or other designations of length. The information can be decoded by measuring the first and second lengths, and then recreating the numeric string by applying a mathematical formula to the measured lengths. Lines can be touching or not touching, can have any angular relationship between them, and can be curved. Alphabetic and other non-numeric information can be translated into numbers, and then included in the numeric string being encoded. Numeric strings can be extremely long, and for example can be used as multi-million digit passcodes. A given graphic can contain more than two lines or other designations of lengths, which can be separately decoded, or can be used to assist in decoding of each other. All suitable mathematical formulae can be used, including for example, simple multiplication and division, addition, subtraction, roots, exponents, and logarithms.

Abstract: Systems and methods for securing encrypted data wherein a sending computer encrypts data to be transmitted with an encryption key. The encryption key itself is not sent, but can be derived from a second key and third key. The second key is modified such that an incomplete portion of the second key is sent along with the message to a recipient computer. The third key is sent separately to the recipient computer. The recipient computer obtains the remainder of the second key, reconstructs the complete second key and then uses it with the third key to derive a decryption key to decrypt the message.
