- my bad, the font size in the editor is originally small. will try to fix that.
- problem is that the algorithm itself is what makes the system strong. once revealed in a white paper, the whole thing is useless. what do you recommend to write in a text description for this case?
- it's an imitation of OTP mechanism but has nothing to do with how OTP is conventionally implemented.
This is a deal-breaker. Your system is not strong if you rely on other people not knowing how it works. Nobody will use it because you can't convince them it's worth anything, you can't distribute it in code. I don't mean to sound like a jerk, but again this is literally 19th century stuff: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kerckhoffs%27s_principle .
thanks a lot for taking the time to discuss it.
That's called a Viginere cipher and people stopped using it in the 19th century.
