I want to make a one time token that users use to reset their password. The token should be invalidated once it is used, is it safe to use their currently hashed password as the aes key to encrypt the token so that once the p… Continue reading Can I use a user’s password hash as the AES key to make a one time token?
I had encrypted 2 MySQL databases with AES_ENCRYPT in ECB 128 bit mode. Now I forgot my encryption key, but I have plain text (I have one database without encryption and same with encryption). How to find the encryption key s… Continue reading Can I recover a lost AES key?
I’m a student and this research is a requirement for our graduation. To be honest me and my groupmates have no background in encryption but our university requires us to complete a complicated research which is why we are st… Continue reading Is it possible to use AES algorithm for folder encryption and the AES key will be encrypted again using RSA algorithm? [on hold]
Tools that create ‘encrypted file containers’ use open encryption standards like AES to encrypt container contents, however the container format is proprietary, I am guessing, so need the same tool to decrypt the data. So, is there any Ope… Continue reading Is there any ‘Open Enrypted File Container’ Format?
When I use AES CBC, the encrypt function needs to get an input-buffer to encrypt + key + IV?
Is IV like one more key, or IV is generated by the key (so the encrypt function only needs to get the input-buffer to encrypt and t… Continue reading Understand aes cbc IV
I’ve been storing files using a filename of the md5 hash of the file. This allows me to not store duplicates of the same file and avoids any filename clashes. Each file has uses a different salt/iv.
I want to start encryptin… Continue reading Potential security issue with md5 filename
I have recently starting looking into AES encryption for a side project. I am researching this till now so if there is something wrong about my concept please correct it.
According to me If i want to encrypt something in AES… Continue reading How to use login details to make a key for AES encryption and decryption
I have the encrypted files, the random IV for each encrypted files and the counter increment function but I miss the key. Is there anyway for me to decrypt the files?
Continue reading Decrypt AES 128 CTR with the IVs (counter) but not the key
I was looking to encrypt some text files (containing sensitive data) so I could safely keep them online (e.g. Google drive).
I have found three options:
7-zip, which does AES-256
Encryptpad, which use OpenPGP symmetric enc… Continue reading Help me understand Encryptpad and 7-zip for encryption
I have JavaScript tied to an HTMl button, which does an AES-CGM encoding and logs the useful info to the console.
function strToArrayBuffer(str) {
let buf = new ArrayBuffer(str.length * 2);
