A method includes receiving data and a plurality of values at a processor. The data can include real-valued data and/or complex data. The plurality of values includes one of a plurality of random values or a plurality of pseudo-random values. The method also includes generating an automorphism, via the processor, based on the plurality of values, and partitioning the data, via the processor, into a plurality of data blocks. The automorphism includes at least one of a linear transformation or an antilinear transformation. Each data block from the plurality of data blocks can have a predefined size. The method also includes applying the automorphism, via the processor, to each data block from plurality of data blocks, to produce a plurality of transformed data blocks, and causing transmission of a signal representing the plurality of transformed data blocks.
