## Save the world from Dr. Mysterious

My name is ????? You must find out Dr. Mysterious's name, which is your greatest weapon against him (it gives you power over him). His slave, Mr. Useless, has sent you some information but it is ...

## ECC keys vulnerable to brute force attack?

I have started learning about Elliptic curve cryptography. Since the key size required in ECC is relatively lesser than the key size in RSA to provide the same amount of strong encryptions, I wonder ...

## Need 32bit block cipher

I need simple cipher with 32bit output block. There is no need for secure cipher, just need to make value more random, and cipher should be fast. Does anyone know such algorithms?

## Initializing PGP keys by one side

I am using a PGP method to encrypt and decrypt messages shared between users A and B. Upon the start of a message exchange is the initialization of the public and secret keys by both Users. Lets say ...

## Should chat have TeX support?

OK, so chat is now available... but; it has been suggested that for Mathematics we should have TeX support. The current TeX processing has some non-trivial client impact. Before I even attempt trying ...

## Compiling Mathematica script in Latex

I am writing a report in physics and I want to use a Mathematica script that produce something like a simulation. I want to know how I can add this code to my LaTeX file, so when I compile that LaTeX ...

## Java conversion of base 16 to base 64

I wrote a solution in Java to solve the problem here. I use BigInteger to convert first from base 16 to base 10, then base 10 to base 64. This seems quite inefficient to me, and I would have no ...

## SSL with both local client and server

I'm not sure whether this topic belongs in Cryptography, Programming or StackOverFlow so please forgive me if I don't add a useful question to this site. I want to give both server and client ...

What are the different access structures that can be used with Attribute Based Encryption?

## Is it legal to export open-source cryptographic software from Canada

I'm an independent software developer who has developed a program that links to the OpenSSL libraries for the purpose of allowing users to decrypt, filter and re-encrypt secure content. For example, ...

## What ECC certificate would work with the following PKCS7/CMS code?

We are using the PKCS#7 / CMS data format standard to encrypt/decrypt/sign/verify sensitive payloads. Currently we're using 2048 and 4096 bit RSA certificates (and keys) for our PKCS7 / CMS and its ...

Suppose I want to keep a client's password database secure (not in plaintext), while still having access to the plaintext password. Now I generates a public/private keypair. Then I send the public ...

## How to check if a function is significant or not?

f(n) = 1 / ( log n ) ^ 1/2 I know that this function is not negligible because it will never converge to zero even for large values of n. Now my question is, how can i tell if this function is ...

## Why is PuTTYgen-created RSA public exponent(e) not in {3,17,65537}?

As far as I know, RSA public exponent(e) should be one of {3,17,65537}. However, I found PuTTYgen-created RSA public exponent(e) is 0x25(37) by default,as follows, (PuTTYgen version: 0.66) I am ...

## How to implement CSPRGs in Python?

I want to implement a CSPRNG for a stream cipher. I've tried implementing the BBS, but I've heard that it needs very big seeds to be secure. Is there a function in some library for Python 3 that adds ...

## Custom encryption

I made a custom encryption library/class which allows to en-/decrypt Strings with a custom charset. I think you'll get what I mean with that when you take a look at the code. Since I haven't much ...

## How to force non-negative int64_t output for blowfish encryption with int32_t input?

I would like to encrypt a series of small integers one by one. The range of them is about 0~10^8. The output must be non-negative int64_t integers. Since Blowfish is 64-bit cipher, I prefer to use it ...
