Abstract

The Hill matrix algorithm[3], published in 1929, is known for being the first purely algebraic cryptographic system and for starting the entire field of algebraic cryptology. In this paper, an operator derived from ring isomorphism theory is adapted for use in the Hill system which greatly increases the block size that a matrix can encrypt; specifically, a k×k invertible matrix over Z n represents an invertible matrix of order k 3, which produces ciphertext blocks k 2-times as long as the original matrix could. This enhancement increases the Hill system's security considerably.
