Abstract :
Cellular Automata is one of the most fascinating disciplines. It is being used in many practical applications but it’s used in cryptography is still not being explored¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬. A technique of generating key for public key cryptography has been proposed in the work. The work also applies different tests to the data generated by the application developed to generate cryptography key. It is found that the key is generated follows the gap test and frequency test .Moreover, the coefficient of autocorrelation of the data generated is also apt. Therefore, the method can be safely used in public key cryptography. The strength of the key generated is being tested against AES.

Key-Words / Index Term :
