contents This scholarly work presents an advanced cryptographic framework utilizing automorphism groups as the foundational structure for encryption scheme implementation. The proposed methodology employs a three-parameter group construction, distinguished by its application of logarithmic signatures positioned outside the group's center, a significant departure from conventional approaches. A key innovation in this implementation is utilizing the Hermitian function field as the underlying mathematical framework. This particular function field provides enhanced structural properties that strengthen the cryptographic protocol when integrated with the three-parameter group architecture. The encryption mechanism features phased key de-encapsulation from ciphertext, representing a substantial advantage over alternative implementations. This sequential extraction process introduces additional computational complexity for potential adversaries while maintaining efficient legitimate decryption. A notable characteristic of this cryptosystem is the direct correlation between the underlying group's mathematical strength and both the attack complexity and message size parameters. This relationship enables precise security-efficiency calibration based on specific implementation requirements and threat models. The application of automorphism groups with logarithmic signatures positioned outside the center represents a significant advancement in non-traditional cryptographic designs, particularly relevant in the context of post-quantum cryptographic resilience.
