A NEW ALGORITHM FOR ENCRYPTING ARABIC TEXT USING THE MATHEMATICAL EQUATION

Abstract

Most organizations today use two levels of security: Data security level (encryption) and Network security level (firewall) etc. Therefore, encryption plays a vital role in securing daily operations of organizations. Securing data at first level aims to hide data characteristics. So, different algorithms and methods are being researched and developed to cover this gap for securing different data types especially text messages and make it very difficult for unauthorized parties to break it. From these, the major no. of algorithms are specialized to encrypt English texts, but no one for Arabic language texts although there were many attempts to invent such algorithms.As a result, this research proposed a new encryption method to encrypt Arabic text by using the principle of integration to provide better security and increasing the complexity of guessing the correct keys and correct plain text.At the end, the results show that the new cryptosystem is inevitable to cryptanalysis attack.
