Abstract
The invention relates to a method of probabilistic symmetric encryption of a plaintext message element with the aid of a secret key that can be represented in the form of a matrix. It comprises an operation of encrypting the plaintext message element, with the aid of the matrix parametrized by a random vector, so as to obtain an encrypted message element coupled to the random vector. Furthermore, there is envisaged a step of encoding the plaintext message element as a code word with the aid of an error correcting code having a given correction capacity and a step of adding a noise vector. The error correcting code and the noise vector are adapted so that the Hamming weight of the noise vector is less than or equal to the correction capacity of the correcting code.
