Secure SMS messaging using Quasigroup encryption and Java SMS API

SMS (Short Message Service) is a widely used service for brief communication. Occasionally the data sent using SMS services is confidential in nature and is desired not to be disclosed to a third party. In this paper an application for sending encrypted SMS messages using cryptographic methods based on theory of quasigroups is proposed. The encryption algorithm is characterized by a secret key. The application is developed using programming language Java and the J2ME environment available in several mobile devices on the market today.
