Abstract
We present an all-optical cryptographic device for security applications, based on the properties of soliton beams. It is able to codify a given bit stream of optical pulses, inverting at will their order, to make the stream not understandable. Its great advance is represented by its capability of encrypting in real time, without slowing the data flow that can be transmitted with its original velocity.
