Export-restricted RSA encryption source code printed on a T-shirt made the T-shirt an export-restricted munition, as a freedom of speech protest against U.S. encryption export restrictions . [1] Changes in the export law means that it is no longer illegal to export this T-shirt from the U.S., or for U.S. citizens to show it to foreigners.
DeCSS. A fragment of the DeCSS code, which can be used by a computer to circumvent a DVD's copy protection. DeCSS is one of the first free computer programs capable of decrypting content on a commercially produced DVD video disc. Before the release of DeCSS, free and open source operating systems (such as BSD and Linux) could not play encrypted ...
A simple variant is to encrypt by using the Vigenère decryption method and to decrypt by using Vigenère encryption. That method is sometimes referred to as "Variant Beaufort". It is different from the Beaufort cipher, created by Francis Beaufort, which is similar to Vigenère but uses a slightly modified enciphering mechanism and tableau.
A number of modes of operation have been designed to combine secrecy and authentication in a single cryptographic primitive. Examples of such modes are , [12] integrity-aware cipher block chaining (IACBC) [clarification needed], integrity-aware parallelizable mode (IAPM), [13] OCB, EAX, CWC, CCM, and GCM.
VeraCrypt. VeraCrypt is a free and open-source utility for on-the-fly encryption (OTFE). [ 5] The software can create a virtual encrypted disk that works just like a regular disk but within a file. It can also encrypt a partition [ 6] or (in Windows) the entire storage device with pre-boot authentication.
PKCS 1. In cryptography, PKCS #1 is the first of a family of standards called Public-Key Cryptography Standards (PKCS), published by RSA Laboratories. It provides the basic definitions of and recommendations for implementing the RSA algorithm for public-key cryptography. It defines the mathematical properties of public and private keys ...
XOR cipher. In cryptography, the simple XOR cipher is a type of additive cipher, [ 1] an encryption algorithm that operates according to the principles: A 0 = A, A A = 0, A B = B A, (A B) C = A (B C), (B A) A = B 0 = B, For example where denotes the exclusive disjunction (XOR) operation. [ 2] This operation is sometimes called modulus 2 ...
Comparison of implementations of message authentication code (MAC) algorithms. A MAC is a short piece of information used to authenticate a message—in other words, to confirm that the message came from the stated sender (its authenticity) and has not been changed in transit (its integrity). Implementation. HMAC - MD5. HMAC- SHA1.
