Different types of data are produced, stored, transmitted or exchanged, and in most of the cases the privacy of the data is a requirement; this issue enforces the inventing of a secure way to send the data using the encryption. These days most of the encryption algorithms based on the idea of (Public - Private Key), so that the process of encryption uses a key known to everyone and the decryption process uses a different private key, such as the RSA. The problem in these algorithms is the giving of the same cipher-text each time you encrypt a particular text using a specific key, which makes it easier to discover the original text by relating the encrypted text to a well-known decrypted text. The main purpose of this research is to build a reliable, an efficient, and a more secure algorithm for encryption. This algorithm gives multiple ciphers for a specific message using the same key and produces the original message once we decrypt these ciphers; this will make the process of hacking by relating the cipher to the text so difficult. This research paper will compare different algorithms with the new algorithm, and will demonstrate the implementation of an application that shows each one of these algorithms including the new one using a well-known programming language.
