Abstract
A method and system for hiding an encryption key. The method including creating a directed graph having a plurality of vertices and edges, including a source and a sink vertex. Each vertex has a vertex value. The source vertices have a common source value, and the sink vertices have a common sink value, the sink value being a function of the source value and the encryption key. Each edge has an edge value that is a function of r(in)and r(out) where r(in)is the functional inverse of the vertex value of the predecessor vertex and r(out) is the vertex value of the successor vertex. A message enters a source vertex; flows along a path from the source vertex to a sink vertex; and leaves the sink vertex, where the output message is an encrypted or decrypted version of the input message using the private encryption key.
