Abstract
A method for encrypting data is provided. The method includes formatting data represented in a weighted number system into data blocks. The method also includes converting the data blocks into a residue number system representation. The method further includes generating a first error generating sequence and inducing errors in the data blocks after converting the data blocks into a residue number system representation. It should be understood that the errors are induced in the data blocks by using the first error generating sequence. After inducing errors into the data blocks, the data of the data blocks is formatted into a form to be stored or transmitted. The method also includes generating a second error generating sequence synchronized with and identical to the first error generating sequence and correcting the errors in the data blocks using an operation which is an arithmetic inverse of a process used in inducing errors.
