Abstract: Private-key cryptography is a cryptographic system that uses the same secret key to encrypt and decrypt messages. The problem with this method is transmitting the secret key to the person that needs it without it being intercepted Here, we have proposed an idea to increase the security of private-key encryption technique. We have focused on the secret procedure to retrieve secret value from the private-key rather than securing the actual private-key value. The encryption is done by the secret value derived from the private-key. The secret value is being derived by making arithmetic operation between two decimal values. Those decimal values are derived by taking the binary values from even and odd bit position of a plain text’s character respectively. The operators are supplied by the user. As the formations of ‘0’ and ‘1’ are different for each distinct character in the plain text file, so we get different or may be distinct secret private-key value for each of the distinct character in the plain text. Thus the security is increased.
