      <abstract>
        <p>There are numerous potential applications for the formidable instrument known as Cubic Magic. Combining mathematics, engineering, and art allows the creation of cubes with specific properties. This technique may be applied in many other contexts. This article will discuss how it works and its uses in different industries.  While the concept has been around for millennia, it has only lately gained popularity due to its diverse uses. Our work is to build Cubic Magic using two techniques and use them with cryptography applications and the Mathlab program presented.</p>
