Abstract

In the present paper we will show a system to realize an innovative cryptographic code that ensures a high level of security using Information Fusion (IF) techniques. In detail, we have decided to merge two codes respectively generated by an algorithm of Cryptographic Public-key and by fractals relations. A companion IF method has been presented with a different use in [1]. Indeed, in the previous paper it was created an identification access key, while here we wish to generate a highly randomized Cryptography key to be used for encrypting.

The choice of using fractals to generate numbers to be fused with codes of Public-Key Cryptography, is due to the randomness of these structures. The idea is to use these features for cryptographic applications such as One-Time-Pad. The presented new modified fusion technique, with respect to [1], is called F&NIF (Fractal & Numerical Information Fusion).
