There are three ciphertypes on the table now all having the essential
properties of being “theoretically unbreakable” and being independent
of computer power for all time.
This permits the luxury of making choices by comparison of benefits.
The ciphers are,
1) Skew Line Encryptions
2) Skew Curve Encryptions
3) Scalable Key Encryptions
That is the chronological order in which they were created.
These ciphers are now showing mutual properties, something that I
welcome as being thoroughly mathematical. The fact of using vector
methods and quite different scalar methods behoves me to make an
honest comparison between the two types of cryptography.
Ciphers 2) and 3) show very similar traits in the way Bob decrypts. I
favour cipher 2) here in this comparison but cipher 3) has the great
practical advantage of possessing less than one third of the
ciphertext expansion ratio of 2).
Cipher 1) is the most mathematically elegant of the three.
My attitude to any criticism of enlarged cipher text expansion is that
it is a small price to pay for cryptography that is unbreakable and is
immune to threats from increasing computer power for all time. That
goes also for any criticism of an encryption/decryption rate that is
some what less that the ideal current rate being exhibited by AES
cryptography.
The impending increases in computer power that threaten to defeat the
current cryptology can only enhance both of these new crypto types and
overcome the perceived drawbacks I mention if they are to be called
that.
Cipher 3) is the most efficient of the three ciphers on the table in
terms of ciphertext volume alone.
Putting ciphertext expansion ratio to one side as a drawback in
operational efficiency, my personal choice of cryptography here is
cipher 1).
This cipher i.e. “Skew Line Encryptions” is a really elegant rock
solid vector cipher. I commend it again to the readers who visit my
website regularly – keep on coming - you are making a difference.
