Fragmentation, Encryption, and Redundancy in Data Transmission: A Novel Secure UDP-Based Fragmentation Protocol and Its Applications

This research paper introduces a novel protocol for secure data transmission, built on the User Datagram Protocol (UDP). Unlike traditional Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) that prioritizes reliability, this protocol emphasizes speed while addressing data loss, tampering, and integrity challenges inherent to UDP.

A Proof of Concept (PoC) was implemented using Python, demonstrating the protocol's effectiveness in securing data transmissions while maintaining low latency. Applications range from secure communication channels to environments with unreliable networks, such as wireless or satellite communications.
