Description
In Hacking Cryptography you'll find unique guidance for creating strong cryptography that can withstand attempts to exploit it including:
- DUAL_EC_DRBG random number generator using Go's elliptic curve library
- Exploiting the RC4 stream cipher, as used in WEP
- Block ciphers for padding oracle attacks and manipulation of initialization-vectors
- Exploiting hash functions by using extension and rainbow table attacks
- Implementing RSA key generation using the Miller-Rabin primality test and exploiting it using the Weiner attack
- Exploiting PKCS1.5 padding by using Bleichenbacher's chosen-ciphertext attack
- Implementing Diffie-Hellman Key Exchange and breaking it using a MITM parameter injection attack
