Abstract

The advancements of high end technology have enabled the people to connect and communicate around any corner of the world through the usage of Internet. Communication through such mass media includes exchange of information which can be personal, official, or confidential in nature. To ensure the secured transmission, the ability of the encryption algorithms have to be enhanced. This paper illustrates a novel technique “Scrabble-O-graphy” which showcases a different route for generating the secured cipher text, without the use of intensive mathematical computation. This paper describes how a simple game of scrabble can be of great importance for the generation of the complex cipher text.
