  2. Web Cryptography API - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_cryptography_API

    This agnostic API would utilize JavaScript to perform operations that would increase the security of data exchange within web applications. The API would provide a low-level interface to create and/or manage public keys and private keys for hashing, digital signature generation and verification and encryption and decryption for use with web ...

  3. Public-key cryptography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public-key_cryptography

    Because asymmetric key algorithms are nearly always much more computationally intensive than symmetric ones, it is common to use a public/private asymmetric key-exchange algorithm to encrypt and exchange a symmetric key, which is then used by symmetric-key cryptography to transmit data using the now-shared symmetric key for a symmetric key ...

  4. Forward secrecy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forward_secrecy

    With pre-computed keys, many key pairs are created and the public keys shared, with the private keys destroyed after a message has been received using the corresponding public key. This approach has been deployed as part of the Signal protocol. [16] In puncturable encryption, the recipient modifies their private key after receiving a message in ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JSON_Web_Token

    JSON Web Token (JWT, suggested pronunciation / dʒ ɒ t /, same as the word "jot" [1]) is a proposed Internet standard for creating data with optional signature and/or optional encryption whose payload holds JSON that asserts some number of claims. The tokens are signed either using a private secret or a public/private key.

  6. How AOL uses SSL to protect your account

    At AOL, we make every effort to keep your personal information totally secure. SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) is an industry standard for encrypting private data sent over the Internet. It helps protect your account from hackers and insures the security of private data sent over the Internet, like credit cards and passwords.

  7. Encryption - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Encryption

    Public-key encryption was first described in a secret document in 1973; [15] beforehand, all encryption schemes were symmetric-key (also called private-key). [16]: 478 Although published subsequently, the work of Diffie and Hellman was published in a journal with a large readership, and the value of the methodology was explicitly described. [17]

  8. Key exchange - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Key_exchange

    Key exchange (also key establishment) is a method in cryptography by which cryptographic keys are exchanged between two parties, allowing use of a cryptographic algorithm. In the Diffie–Hellman key exchange scheme, each party generates a public/private key pair and distributes the public key.
