Kaalka Encryption Algorithm

🌐 Live Website

---

🌟 Overview

Kaalka is a robust, time-driven encryption protocol for cross-platform security. It leverages clock angles, trigonometric functions, and time-based transformations—making every encryption unique to its timestamp. Kaalka supports envelope, seal, replay protection, chunked file encryption, and a CLI tool, all implemented natively in Python, JavaScript, Java, Kotlin, and Dart.

🚀 Features

• Time-First Protocol: Envelope, seal, replay protection, time window
• Envelope & Seal: Canonical structure, time-based integrity MIC
• Replay Protection: In-memory ledger, auto-expiry
• Chunked File Encryption: Large file support, lossless roundtrip
• CLI Tool: Encrypt, decrypt, envelope, file operations
• Cross-Platform: Identical logic in Python, JS, Java, Kotlin, Dart
• Flexible API: System or user-defined timestamp
• Production-Ready: Fully tested, documented, and versioned (v5.0.0)

💻 Quick Start

Python

from kaalka import Kaalka
kaalka = Kaalka()
encrypted = kaalka.encrypt("Hello")
decrypted = kaalka.decrypt(encrypted)
# Explicit timestamp
encrypted_exp = kaalka.encrypt("Hello", time_key="12:34:56")
decrypted_exp = kaalka.decrypt(encrypted_exp, time_key="12:34:56")

Java

Kaalka kaalka = new Kaalka();
String encrypted = kaalka.encrypt("Hello");
String decrypted = kaalka.decrypt(encrypted);
// Explicit timestamp
String encryptedExp = kaalka.encrypt("Hello", "12:34:56");
String decryptedExp = kaalka.decrypt(encryptedExp, "12:34:56");

Kotlin

val kaalka = Kaalka()
val encrypted = kaalka.encrypt("Hello")
val decrypted = kaalka.decrypt(encrypted)
// Explicit timestamp
val encryptedExp = kaalka.encrypt("Hello", "12:34:56")
val decryptedExp = kaalka.decrypt(encryptedExp, "12:34:56")

Dart

final kaalka = Kaalka();
final encrypted = kaalka.encrypt('Hello');
final decrypted = kaalka.decrypt(encrypted);
// Explicit timestamp
final encryptedExp = kaalka.encrypt('Hello', timeKey: '12:34:56');
final decryptedExp = kaalka.decrypt(encryptedExp, timeKey: '12:34:56');

JavaScript

const Kaalka = require('kaalka');
const kaalka = new Kaalka();
const encrypted = kaalka.encrypt("Hello");
const decrypted = kaalka.decrypt(encrypted);
// Explicit timestamp
const encryptedExp = kaalka.encrypt("Hello", "12:34:56");
const decryptedExp = kaalka.decrypt(encryptedExp, "12:34:56");

🛡️ Protocol & CLI Highlights

• Envelope: senderId, receiverId, timestamp, window, seq, ciphertext, seal
• Seal: Time-based integrity MIC, auto-expiry, replay protection
• Chunked File: Large file support, chunk index + timestamp
• Explicit Timestamp Support:
  • All APIs and CLI commands allow you to pass a custom timestamp for encryption and decryption.
  • This enables time-variant security and cross-platform compatibility.
• CLI Tool:
  • encrypt --in <inputFile> --out <outputFile> --sender <id> --receiver <id> --timestamp <time>
  • decrypt --in <inputFile> --out <outputFile> --receiver <id> --timestamp <time>
  • envelope --text "message" --sender <id> --receiver <id> --timestamp <time>

🧪 Testing & Reliability

• Unit Tests: Protocol, envelope, seal, replay, chunking, CLI
• Cross-Platform: Identical results across all supported languages
• Production-Ready: All tests pass, robust error handling
