Abstract
Disclosed are methods and systems to encrypt and decrypt a data message using Geometric Algebra. The encrypt operation performed on a source computing device uses the geometric product (Clifford Product) of a multivector created from plain text/data of the data message with one or more other multivectors that carry encryption keys, the identity of the source and/or other data-centric information. The source computing device sends the encrypted message to a destination computing device. The decrypt operation performed on the destination computing devices recovers the original message multivector, and ultimately the original data message by employing geometric algebra operations such as multivector inverse, Clifford conjugate and others along with the geometric product. Various embodiments may employ a geometric product of the message and encryption/shared secret key, or various embodiments may utilize a geometric product 'sandwich' and/or multivector based Sylvester's equation to increase the confusion and/or diffusion of the encryption system.
