Abstract
In this paper a session based symmetric key cryptographic algorithm has been proposed and it is termed as
Matrix Based Bit Permutation Technique (MBBPT). MBBPT consider the plain text (i.e. the input file) as a
binary bit stream with finite number bits. This input bit stream is divided into manageable-sized blocks with
different length. The bits of the each block fit diagonally upward starting from ( 1 , 1 ) cell in a left to right
trajectory into a square matrix of suitable order n. Then the bits are taken from the square matrix
diagonally upward starting from ( n , n ) cell in a right to left trajectory to form the encrypted binary string
and from this encrypted string cipher text is formed. Combination of the values of block length and the no.
of blocks of a session generates the session key. For decryption the cipher text is considered as a stream of
binary bits. After processing the session key information, this binary string is divided into blocks. The bits
of the each block fit diagonally upward starting from ( n , n ) cell in a right to left trajectory into a square
matrix of suitable order n. Then the bits are taken from the square matrix diagonally upward starting from
( 1 , 1 ) cell in a left to right trajectory to form the decrypted binary string . Plain text is regenerated from
this binary string. Comparison of MBBPT with existing and industrially accepted TDES and AES has been
done.
