%X Supermarkets and large-scale retail stores are usually subject to huge
monetary transactions for certain customers</span><span style=\"font-family:&quot;\">กฏ</span><span style=\"font-family:&quot;\"> purchases. The computerization of these systems is
common in supermarkets but the security of these transactions remains a
mystery. This article presents an algorithm as an API based on symmetric
cryptography that can enable end-to-end encryption of a monetary transaction in
a supermarket</span><span style=\"font-family:&quot;\">.</span><span style=\"font-family:&quot;\"> This
algorithm is the first part of the complete supermarket management system which
will be presented in </span><span style=\"font-family:&quot;\">the</span><span style=\"font-family:&quot;\"> following article. The Python language and the Flask framework allow us
to develop the algorithm as an independent component. Tests have been performed
and our algorithm uses 98.49% less memory and 10.18% time saving than the AES
algorithm.
