Sensitive information is transmitted across the internet every day and keeping such information as sacred is an important adventure. This is because malicious activities are on the increase as hackers are doing everything possible to steal such information. In this paper, we have implemented a new Rivest Shamir Adleman (RSA) encryption scheme based on the Chinese Remainder Theorem (CRT). The scheme consists of two level of encryption and two level of decryption. The first level of encryption is the classical RSA encryption and in the second level of encryption, we used forward conversion technique in Residue Number System. In the first level of decryption, we employed the CRT and the classical RSA decryption process is used for the second level of decryption. This new scheme will ensure that smaller messages, m for which c=me
