  • Publication number: 20260052134
    Abstract: A method for encrypting plaintext data is enclosed that includes operations of receiving the plaintext data, the plaintext data including a plurality of data portions, encrypting each of the plurality of data portions using a specific key for each data portion, merging each of the plurality of data portions together to form a single data stream, generating a data map of the single data stream, appending the data map to the single data stream, and performing a master cipher to form an encrypted distributable stream. Operations of the encrypting include: an additive operation on each byte of the first data portion using the additive table, an XOR operation on each byte of the first data portion as modified by the additive operation, a substitution operation on each byte of the first data portion using the substitution table as modified by the XOR operation.

  • Publication number: 20250247209
    Abstract: A computerized method for a symmetric encryption cipher with steganographically embedded access controls includes generating a data structure relating to a cryptographic key of an invariant size and a variable encryption strength. The data structure is configured to dynamically allocate a plurality of adjacent data stores containing: an initialization vector (IV) for deriving a cryptographic key; a variable-length padding space dynamically coupled and inversely related to the variable encryption strength of the cryptographic key; and a seed array relating to the cryptographic key. User-authentication information, such as biometric data and/or access control information, may be steganographically embedded in the variable padding space of the cryptographic key.
