MDSR is a new encryption system designed to meet the need for high-level digital data security, which has been generated with the growth of the Internet and Intranets. The encryption system used by MDSR is based on Multi-Dimensional Space Rotation (MDSR) and Time-Dependent Multi-Dimensional Space Rotation (MDSR-TD). The main features of this encryption system are: the larger the space dimension the more difficult it is to break the code, no special hardware requirements for encryption or decryption, and the ability to narrowly regulate hierarchy and decryption privileges. The result is an encryption system that provides versatile private data management, confidential mail security, and security for data sent to multiple destinations. Since MDSR also enhances security for data on an Internet server, it is also suitable for use by system administrators and Internet Service Providers. The contest that is detailed on the CASIO Home Page starts from September 24, with a cash prize for the person who successfully breaks a message encoded with MDSR. CASIO plans to use MDSR in future CASIO data communication products. Contest Details Term: September 26, 1998 to November 26, 1998 (JST) Encrypted Text: Visit the CASIO Website for details. http://www.casio.co.jp/en/ Prize: 1 million Japanese yen (JPY: 1,000,000) to the first entry (person or group) who sends CASIO a solution to the problem that is 100% accurate.
