Abstract :
Magnus Kallus is an Approach in Encryption. Encryption is defined as “cryptography” which is formed by 2 words - both of Latin origin, “crypto” i.e. “secret” and “graphein” which means to “write”. So it basically means to write something hidden that seems unreadable to third party (in technical terms). Encryption is really important in today´s world for keeping the information secured and intact, and if the information is being transferred from one point to another, to make sure that the data being transmitted is well encrypted to maintain its confidentiality and integrity and even if a third party or an unauthorized user gains access to it (data), it will be of no use to him/her as it would be encrypted. Magnus Kallus is formed by 2 Latin words, “Magnus” i.e. “immense” and “Kallus” i.e. “beauty”. Magnus Kallus is basically a substitution cipher [ ] which, in simple terms, means that we map each letter in the message to be encrypted to a character or a sequence of characters.
