    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AACS_encryption_key...

    On December 26, 2006, a person using the alias muslix64 published a utility named BackupHDDVD and its source code on the DVD decryption forum at the website Doom9. [23] BackupHDDVD can be used to decrypt AACS protected content once one knows the encryption key.

  3. DeCSS - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DeCSS

    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 ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_protection_dongle

    Software protection dongle. A software protection dongle (commonly known as a dongle or key) is an electronic copy protection and content protection device. When connected to a computer or other electronics, they unlock software functionality or decode content. [ 1] The hardware key is programmed with a product key or other cryptographic ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EFF_DES_cracker

    The EFF's DES cracker "Deep Crack" custom microchip. In cryptography, the EFF DES cracker (nicknamed " Deep Crack ") is a machine built by the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) in 1998, to perform a brute force search of the Data Encryption Standard (DES) cipher's key space – that is, to decrypt an encrypted message by trying every ...

  6. Encryption - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Encryption

    Encryption. In cryptography, encryption is the process of transforming (more specifically, encoding) information in a way that, ideally, only authorized parties can decode. This process converts the original representation of the information, known as plaintext, into an alternative form known as ciphertext. Despite its goal, encryption does not ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Encryption_Standard

    This attack is against AES-256 that uses only two related keys and 2 39 time to recover the complete 256-bit key of a 9-round version, or 2 45 time for a 10-round version with a stronger type of related subkey attack, or 2 70 time for an 11-round version. The Advanced Encryption Standard ( AES ), also known by its original name Rijndael ( Dutch ...

  8. Software cracking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_cracking

    Software cracking (known as "breaking" mostly in the 1980s [ 1]) is an act of removing copy protection from a software. [ 2] Copy protection can be removed by applying a specific crack. A crack can mean any tool that enables breaking software protection, a stolen product key, or guessed password. Cracking software generally involves ...

  9. 40-bit encryption - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/40-bit_encryption

    40-bit encryption refers to a (now broken) key size of forty bits, or five bytes, for symmetric encryption; this represents a relatively low level of security. A forty bit length corresponds to a total of 2 40 possible keys. Although this is a large number in human terms (about a trillion ), it is possible to break this degree of encryption ...
