A Short History Of Cryptography
A brief historical analysis of the management of cryptography.
http://www.all.net/books/ip/Chap2-1.html

Extractions: Cryptography is one of the oldest fields of technical study we can find records of, going back at least 4,000 years. It is quite noteworthy that of all the cryptosystems developed in those 4,000 years of effort, only 3 systems in widespread serious use remain hard enough to break to be of real value. One of them takes too much space for most practical uses, another is too slow for most practical uses, and the third is widely believed to contain serious weaknesses. We begin with a classification scheme for ciphers given by Gary Knight in the first of a series of articles which posed ciphers to the reader, and after a given period of time demonstrated reader solutions along with explanations of how they solved the ciphers. Versions of the solutions attained by the author were also given along with many mathematical techniques for "attacking the unknown cipher".

Apologies to anyone who got caught twice! I'm in the process of changing this blog into a sub category on my main blog, and I messed up a bit (I will redirect all the RSS feeds so people who previously only saw crypto stuff will STILL only see crypto stuff). At some point, this blog will go - I will try and make sure that anyone who has sent a trackback ping is notified when I do this.

Whitepaper presented at USENIX 99 by OpenBSD developers Theo de Raadt, Niklas Hallqvist, Artur Grabowski, Angelo D. Keromytis, and Niels Provos discussing the cryptography employed in OpenBSD.

Extractions: USENIX Technical Program - Abstract - USENIX 99 Theo de Raadt, Niklas Hallqvist, Artur Grabowski, Angelos D. Keromytis, and Niels Provos, The OpenBSD Project Cryptographic mechanisms are an important security component of an operating system in securing the system itself and its communication paths. Indeed, in many situations, cryptography is the only tool that can solve a particular problem, e.g., network-level security. While cryptography by itself does not guarantee security, when applied correctly, it can significantly improve overall security. Since one of the main foci of the OpenBSD system is security, various cryptographic mechanisms are employed in a number of different roles. This paper gives an overview of the cryptography employed in OpenBSD. We discuss the various components (IPsec, SSL libraries, stronger password encryption, Kerberos IV, random number generators, etc. ), their role in system security, and their interactions with the rest of the system (and, where applicable, the network).

http://www.cs.mcgill.ca/~crepeau/CRYPTO/Biblio-QC.html

Extractions: Multiple file format added July 21st 1996 by Claude. This paper provides an extensive annotated bibliography of papers that have been written on quantum cryptography and related topics. In the past few years, a remarkable surge of interest in the international scientific and industrial community has propelled quantum cryptography into mainstream computer science and physics. Furthermore, quantum cryptography is becoming increasingly practical at a fast pace. The first quantum key distribution prototype [2] worked over a distance of 32 centimetres in 1989. Two additional experimental demonstrations have been set up since, which work over significant lengths of optical fibre [13, 14]. The purpose of this work is to provide an extensive bibliography of most papers ever written on quantum cryptography, including some unpublished papers. In addition, a limited selection of key papers that describe techniques of crucial importance to quantum cryptography, such as privacy amplification [63, 73], is included. The papers are listed in chronological order within each section.

However I believe it will be generally useful to anyone who wishes to create a cryptographic program that manages a database, or who merely wants to get a cryptographic program with an attractive user interface up quickly.

Extractions: Credits CRYPTO 001 Rock bottom basics If you want something to stay a secret, don't tell anyone, don't write it down. If you do have to send it to someone else, hide it in another message so that only the right recipient will understand. Many creative methods of hiding messages have been invented over the ages,. Cryptography in the computer age typically involves the translation of the original message into a new and incomprehensible one by a mathematical algorithm using a specific "key". Just like you need to open the lock on a door with a key, the algorithm and key protects your the contents of your message from unauthorized access. Taking the lock and key model one step further, ease of getting into the crytographic system depends on the strength of the lock (the algorithm), and the possession of the key. For example, you may encrypt your message by changing every letter to the one

EPIC Senior Fellow Wayne Madsen was the principal researcher and writer. Members of the Global Internet Liberty Campaign provided assistance. Lisa Kamm created the HTML version of the Report. The Importance of Cryptography Emerging computer and communications technologies are radically altering the ways in which we communicate and exchange information. Along with the speed, efficiency, and cost-saving benefits of the "digital revolution" come new challenges to the security and privacy of communications and information traversing the global communications infrastructure. Governmental regulation of cryptographic security techniques endangers personal privacy. Encryption ensures the confidentiality of personal records, such as medical information, personal financial data, and electronic mail. In a networked environment, such information is increasingly at risk of theft or misuse. In their "Resolution in Support of the Freedom to Use Cryptography," members of the Global Internet Liberty Campaign (GILC) noted that "the use of cryptography implicates human rights and matters of personal liberty that affect individuals around the world" and that "the privacy of communication is explicitly protected by Article 12 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, Article 17 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, and national law."

They were astonishingly successful, and as a result provided the allied war machine with an unprecedentedly complete picture of the enemy plans and dispositions. I was fortunate to be chosen to be a member of that team. In this talk I describe our work and the atmosphere in which it was conducted. I will further give a description of the special contribution of the famous logician Alan Turing, whom I knew well for the last 10 years of his tragically short life.

Quantum mechanics teaches us that, at the deepest level, uncertainty rules the universe: there are things we cannot predict, even in principle. HotBits harnesses this fundamental uncertainty of nature to generate truly random bits, unlike the pseudorandom sequences created by an algorithm on a computer. Along the way, you'll find a discussion of the hardware and software used to generate the random bytes comprehensive enough to build your own, and peek under the hood of quantum mechanics to see why the data are genuinely random, and some of the implications of all this.
