As a cryptologist, I need a set of encryptions implemented into the connection between devices so that nobody can eavesdrop on my conversations. #30

I recommend the RSA cryptosystem, which has a series of classes in Java specifically for implementing that encryption. A good 1024 bit encryption should be strong enough so long as nobody has a quantum computer. DO NOT attempt to make your encryption from scratch!!! Use tools available to make public / private key pairs.

closed, the WiFi direct protocol already utilizes a WPA2 encryption by default, which is secure within the peer network. No need to reinvent the wheel
