Abstract

A new method for secret sharing has been developed. The new secret sharing method is based on error-correcting codes. The paper includes the research of already existing errorcorrecting codes and the performance comparison between this codes. Based on the results of research and performance comparison, the fastest codes have been chosen, which is the main cause of the performance improvement in the new method. Also, further ways of method development and their possible application are shown.
