I am new to GPG so I may be going about this all wrong. I have some files I would like to encrypt symmetrically using AES256, but I want to sign them with my GPG key. I need to automate this process however so I’m using –batch and I pas… Continue reading How to pass both passphrase and password in GPG signed symmetric encryption?
I once heard about a type of crypto system that behaves in the following way: I have x secret keys that work together to decrypt messages encrypted with a public key d. If I get at least n of the x secret keys together, I can decrypt messa… Continue reading What is the name of the crypto system used by ICANN’s DNS recovery system?
I need help someone has been hacking my phone and laptop sharing all the info and manipulation all info globally which is against the low of data protection.
I want to find out who is with evidences so i can takw him to the court.
If I were to encrypt a folder with music files or movie files, or even only the files themselves separately, would that hurt the quality of the files? For example, if I encrypted a lossless audio file, and decrypted it right after, would i… Continue reading Does GPG encryption via subkey harm file quality?
Suppose I create an encrypted container using VeraCrypt and want to upload it to Google Drive/One Drive for storage. The container is encrypted with AES-256.
I know that no one can extract any meaning from that random data.
But I am a very… Continue reading Preventing access to encrypted files at all
I receive emails from my bank with password protected PDF files, and they provide two passwords – either xxxx or yyyy. How is this possible?
I know you shouldn’t roll your own crypto and generally its not a good idea to implement (and then deploy) any extensively tested and recommended algorithms by yourself either.
I have already seen this question, and as far as I understand,… Continue reading Can I use my own implementation of a widely used, supposedly secure cryptographic algorithm for securing data at rest?
I have a particular cryptographic scenario where the following activities take place and conditions must be met:
User A is part of an organisation which shares all data storage internally.
User A wants to upload a file to the data storag… Continue reading Client-side File Encryption With Synchronized Sharing
I know that apple provides per-file key encryption .i.e. a separate encryption key for each file exists on the apple device. The Hardware Key and the Passcode are required to generate these random keys.
But once the device is unlocked then… Continue reading What is the reason for iOS per-file key encryption?
I’m looking into upgrading a .NET software application that encrypts files. At the moment it is doing that by using a fixed key and a specific algorithm in the codebase. Moving the key to a safer place will be my first step.
However, I wan… Continue reading ASP.NET Core Data Protection for long term storage
