Title:
Tailored Key Encryption (TaKE) Tailoring a key for a given pair of plaintext/ciphertext

Authors: Gideon Samid

Abstract:

Abstract. The prevailing cryptographies are attacked on the basis of
the fact that only a single element in the key space will match a
plausible plaintext with a given ciphertext. Any cryptography that
would violate this unique-key assumption, will achieve added security
through deniability (akin to One Time Pad). Such cryptography is being
described. It is achieved by breaking away from the prevailing notion
that the key is a binary string of a fixed length. The described key is
random-size non-linear array: a graph constructed from vertices and
edges. The binary naming of the vertices and edges, and the
configuration are all part of the key. Such keys can take-on most of
the necessary complexity, which allows the algorithm itself to be
exceedingly simple (a-la Turing Machine).
