Anti Statistical Block Encryption (ASBE) is a symmetric encryption algorithm developed by MerlinCryption. It is designed to be nondeterministic and stochastic, meaning every encryption instance produces different ciphertext even when the same key, digital signature, and plaintext are used. Key characteristics of the algorithm: - Not based on any mathematical function, and has no predictable mathematical relationships, making it resistant to mathematical parallelism, factoring, and order-finding techniques used by quantum computers. - Produces no repeating patterns and exhibits no static behaviors, providing resistance to statistical analysis and AI-based pattern matching. Key Management: - Keys are generated using a proprietary algorithmic technique combined with a patented Random Data Generator. - Keys are created, used, and destroyed on the encrypting end, then recreated, used, and destroyed on the decrypting end — no key transfer or key storage occurs. - Key sizes range from 2,048 bits up to 2GB. - Keys are layered with variable-length digital signatures, scaling up to 64KB. - There are no distance limits on key usage. The algorithm has undergone government, academic, and commercial security testing, with claims of resistance to statistical analysis, mathematical analysis, and cryptanalysis.
