Abstract: This paper develops an encryption system that integrates graph theory with max-plus algebra to enhance data security and decryption reliability. The proposed method transforms plaintext into ciphertext by representing the message as a complete graph, where numerical values derived from an alphabet encoding scheme are used to label the edges. The encryption process applies substitution and permutation techniques based on max-plus algebra to generate complex ciphertext, thereby improving resistance against brute-force and frequency-based attacks. The algorithm follows a structured procedure that begins with numeric encoding, followed by complete graph construction, adjacency matrix generation, matrix modification, and max-plus algebraic transformation. The decryption process performs the inverse operations to recover the original plaintext accurately. Experimental results indicate that the proposed system achieves a high level of security while maintaining computational efficiency, making it suitable for protecting data in digital communication systems.
