CRYPTOGRAPHY MADE EASIER THE CRYPTOGRAPHY GUIDE Basic Concepts Traditional Secret-key Cryptography Traditional cryptography uses a single key to encrypt and decrypt a message. An algorithm that uses the same key to encrypt and decrypt is called symmetric This type of cryptography also deals with authentication, the main technique being the creation and verification of message authentication codes MACs The difficulty with secret-key cryptosystems is sharing a key between the sender and receiver without anyone else compromising it.� In a system supporting a large number of users the key management problems can become very severe. The advantage of traditional cryptography is that it is usually much faster than public-key cryptography. The main techniques are: Block Ciphers Stream Ciphers Message Authentication Codes Block Ciphers A block cipher transforms a fixed-length block of plaintext into a block of ciphertext of the same length, using a secret key. To decrypt, the reverse process is applied to the ciphertext block using the same secret key. In the case of DES, the block size is 64 bits (8 bytes) and the key is 56 bits presented as 8 bytes, the low order bit of each byte being ignored. It is usual to set every 8

Home Press Center Partners About Us ... Kremlin SDK Cryptography Resources Concepts Algorithms Technical Support Customer Support Concepts of Cryptography Introduction to Secret Key Cryptography Cryptography, simply defined, is the art of combining some input data, called the plaintext, with a user-specified password to generate an encrypted output, called ciphertext, in such a way that, given the ciphertext, it is extremely difficult to recover the original plaintext without the encryption password in a reasonable amount of time. The algorithms that combine the keys and plaintext are called ciphers. Various ciphers are documented in the Algorithms section . Many ciphers accept a fixed length password (also called a key). The keyspace is the total number of possible keys. For a cipher that accepts 160 bit keys, this is 2 , or approximately 1.46 x 10 . Although recommended keylengths change as computing power grows, the currently secure keylength for encryption ranges from 128 to 256 bits, with most modern algorithms using keys at least 128 bits. So what makes one cipher better than another? What makes a cipher secure? Although these questions are the essence of cryptography, their answers are relatively simple: if there is no other way to "break" the algorithm (recover the plaintext or key given some ciphertext) other than searching through every possible key, then the algorithm is secure. This is where a large keylength comes in the larger the keylength, the more possible keys to search through, and therefore the more secure the algorithm. Cryptanalytic attacks are simply means of reducing the number of keys that need to be searched.

0 items: $0.00 Help PRODUCTS Barcode Scanners ... GOVERNMENT Search Home Articles Cryptography Cryptography Cryptography can be defined as the conversion of data into a scrambled code that can be deciphered and sent across a public or private network. Cryptography uses two main styles or forms of encrypting data; symmetrical and asymmetrical. Symmetric encryptions, or algorithms, use the same key for encryption as they do for decryption. Other names for this type of encryption are secret-key, shared-key, and private-key. The encryption key can be loosely related to the decryption key; it does not necessarily need to be an exact copy. Symmetric cryptography is susceptible to plain text attacks and linear cryptanalysis meaning that they are hackable and at times simple to decode. With careful planning of the coding and functions of the cryptographic process these threats can be greatly reduced. Asymmetric cryptography uses different encryption keys for encryption and decryption. In this case an end user on a network, public or private, has a pair of keys; one for encryption and one for decryption. These keys are labeled or known as a public and a private key; in this instance the private key cannot be derived from the public key. The asymmetrical cryptography method has been proven to be secure against computationally limited intruders. The security is a mathematical definition based upon the application of said encryption. Essentially, asymmetric encryption is as good as its applied use; this is defined by the method in which the data is encrypted and for what use. The most common form of asymmetrical encryption is in the application of sending messages where the sender encodes and the receiving party decodes the message by using a random key generated by the public key of the sender.

Po�iljatelj �e tada primijeniti dogovorenu funkciju na skup podataka i dobiti kriptirani tekst kojeg �e onda primatelj dekriptirati primjenjuju�i na njega inverz dogovorene funkcije. Kako bijekcija ima pun kufer, na�i junaci ne moraju strahovati da �e ih netko prokljuviti. Stvar naravno �tima, ako ta dvojica imaju tiho i skrovito mjesto na kojem se u miru mogu dogovarati o svojoj funkciji za kriptiranje. Ali, �to ako takvog mjesta nemaju, ili se �ak uop�e ne mogu sresti da bi dogovorili na�in kriptiranja? Mali Ivica bi mo�da prvo poslao svom sugovorniku formulu, a nakon toga i kriptirani tekst. No, jasno je da onda kriptiranje nema smisla, jer ono �eli sprije�iti tre�u osobu da �ita ono �to joj nije namijenjeno, a ako takav subverzivni element mo�e do�i do kriptiranog teksta kojeg Ivica �alje, tada je prethodno mogao uzeti i funkciju-kuharicu za de�ifriranje.

A long-standing open problem in cryptography is whether breaking the RSA cryptosystem is as hard as factoring the modulus, or whether it is potentially much easier. It is proved in that breaking RSA and factoring are equivalent in a generic model of computation. Any generic algorithm for breaking RSA can be transformed into a factoring algorithm. Efficient symmetric cryptography under very weak assumptions. In contrast to the standard notion of a pseudo-random function (PRF), which is indistinguishable from a random function for a computationally-bounded adversary asking arbitrarily many queries (within its running time constraint), the new notion of an s-query weak PRF was introduced in Such a function need only be secure against an adversary who obtains a fixed number s (e.g. s=2) of input-output pairs and, moreover, the inputs are random (not chosen). It is shown that provably-secure encryption can be obtained from an s-query weak PRF essentially as efficiently as from a full-fledged PRF.
