Methods and systems for encrypting data using object-based screens
A system and method is provided for encrypting data for secure storage or transport. The method includes generating object-based wave screen(s) and optionally stumbling block(s) and/or XOR block(s) associated with a block map layout. For each data segment to be encrypted, the method includes positioning the bits of the data segment within the block map layout to generate a data map, and encrypting the data map by applying the object-based wave screen(s) and optionally the stumbling block(s) and/or XOR block(s) to remap the positions of the bits within the block map layout. The encrypted data map is then stored or transported as a representation of the data segment.
