Collaborate Disseminate
As we already know, with the rising power of machines and new technologies like quantum computers today’s methods of encryption might be much faster to crack in the future.
With locally saved data you could always safely erase it and write… Continue reading How likely is it that publicly available data will be decrypted in the future? [duplicate]
I ask about 2045 because I’d like the answers to take into account:
Expected advances and infrastructure changes to the Internet which could aid in physical security of cables or important servers
Expected advances in Inter… Continue reading How would someone take down the Internet in 2045? [on hold]
Our users log in with username/password, and have a cookie that allows them to remain logged in. Our users are expected to run updated versions of JS.
Assuming someone snags our database at some point,
Is it a good idea to… Continue reading Proof of Work as password hash a good idea?
We use sha1sum to calculate SHA-1 hash value of our packages.
Clarification about the usage:
We distribute some software packages, and we want users to be able to check that what they downloaded is the correct package, down… Continue reading Is sha1sum still secure for downloadable software packages signature?

AFAIK, our current disk encryption methods (dm-crypt) preserve the key (as well as decrypted data) in RAM while the computer is running with an implicit assumption that the memory is volatile and key will be lost along with d… Continue reading Is cryptography possible without volatile memory?
