I remember about 90% of my password used for encrypting the persistent user data file system (stored as knoppix-data.aes) while setting up Knoppix a few years ago and would now like to explore the feasibility of a dictionary brute-force at… Continue reading Any information on the encrypted Knoppix user data file system (knoppix-data.aes)?
I would like to encrypt many files using symmetric encryption such as AES256, using a single memorised password.
I was planning to use gpg but gpg symmetric encryption does not work with –multifile flag. gpg has the ability to cache the p… Continue reading Best way to symmetrically encrypt multiple files using a password
What size of initialization vector (IV) is needed for AES encryption? I am using either CCM or GCM modes.
–> for GCM I saw online it’s 12 bytes please correct me
–> I couldn’t find what is it for CCM
In the QUIC spec, they’ve provided an example of header protection:
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc9001#name-sample-packet-protection
They’ve got the following process (paraphrasing):
hp = c206b8d9b9f0f37644430b490eeaa314
sample … Continue reading Is the example in the QUIC spec for header encryption wrong, or have I missed something?
Will using the AES-GCM key as AEAD associated data potentially weaken the security or bring any adverse impact?
Before this question, perhaps I should ask, can an attacker extract AEAD associated data from the ciphertext without first decr… Continue reading Impact of using the AES-GCM key as AEAD associated data
I need to implement end to end encryption between front (reactjs) and back (laravel). What I try to do is encrypt data in front using package cryptojs, send it using axios to backend, in the backend I try to decrypt data using built-in fun… Continue reading Implementing end to end encryption (react js , laravel) [migrated]
Due to there are large encrypted files we are dealing with, we can’t afford to keep entire file in memory during a decryption process.
I’ve implemented the algorithm of chunked decryption of AES GSM encrypted file.
const (

This is really neat demo of the security problems arising from reusing nonces with a symmetric cipher in GCM mode.

Imagine having images stored in a system with their 256 bit hash (BLAKE2b) as their unique ID. We want to produce a URL for each image, something like:
https://host/images/cleartext-image-ID
In order for one user not to be able to steal t… Continue reading Omit IV for AES128-CBC when requiring to always get the same ciphertext encrypting random IDs
I’m currently using kintex 7 xc7k325tfbg900-2 FPGA board and Vivado to build an encryption system using AES 128. I’m done with the top module for the encryption process. I let Vivado make the schematic wrapper and I want to make the const… Continue reading how to transfer Plain Text and Key and Cipher Text in AES 128 [closed]
