A Novel Approach for Text Encryption Using Tokenizers in Ruby
- The SecureTextCipher class is a Ruby-based reversible encryption algorithm that utilizes tokenization techniques from the Tokenizers gem.
- The encryption process involves initially tokenizing the input text, utilizing HMAC-SHA256 for token ID generation and remapping, and utilizing AES-256-CBC encryption for protecting the decryption mapping.
- The reverse decryption process employs the encrypted decoding matrix to restore the original text from tokenized input.
- The SecureTextCipher algorithm is lightweight, reversal function for obfuscating text, and does not require complex traditional encryption algorithms.
- This encryption scheme is robust and easy to implement with improved security compared to simple random mapping approaches.
- It can be applied for lightweight reversible obfuscation and as a security solution alternative to traditional encryption.
- Future work involves integrating additional cryptographic measures, dynamic key rotation and multi-language support, etc., to further strengthen security capabilities.
- In testing, the SecureTextCipher successfully encrypted a variety of text inputs without error or information loss, and successfully reversed the encryption process to recreate the original text.
- The SecureTextCipher is a viable alternative for lighter applications where traditional encryption methods may be considered too complex, and a new improved implementation has been achieved with the focus on strong security.
- In conclusion, SecureTextCipher provides a secure, token-based reversible encryption technique suitable for real-time, lightweight applications. Further improvements are planned.
