Abstract

In this paper, an online chatting system with an embedded real-time chaotic encryption/ decryption method is designed for the Internet. Such system not only, provides a real-time communication platform, but also ensures a secure channel for communication. By the use of cipher feedback and the skew tent map, the input text can be real-time encoded and the cipher text is sent via TCP/IP. With the properties of randomness of the map, and its sensitivity on system parameters and the initial conditions, the encrypted transmitting messages are difficult to be eavesdropped. The implemented method is simple and can be easily embedded in any existing systems.
