Title: Fast and secure encryption-decryption method based on chaotic dynamics

Abstract

A method and system for the secure encryption of information. The method comprises the steps of dividing a message of length L into its character components; generating m chaotic iterates from m independent chaotic maps; producing an "initial" value based upon the m chaotic iterates; transforming the "initial" value to create a pseudo-random integer; repeating the steps of generating, producing and transforming until a pseudo-random integer sequence of length L is created; and encrypting the message as ciphertext based upon the pseudo random integer sequence. A system for accomplishing the invention is also provided.
