  2. Key derivation function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Key_derivation_function

    Example of a Key Derivation Function chain as used in the Signal Protocol.The output of one KDF function is the input to the next KDF function in the chain. In cryptography, a key derivation function (KDF) is a cryptographic algorithm that derives one or more secret keys from a secret value such as a master key, a password, or a passphrase using a pseudorandom function (which typically uses a ...

  3. Linear probing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_probing

    Linear probing is a component of open addressing schemes for using a hash table to solve the dictionary problem.In the dictionary problem, a data structure should maintain a collection of key–value pairs subject to operations that insert or delete pairs from the collection or that search for the value associated with a given key.

  4. Code property graph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_property_graph

    The resulting graph is a property graph, which is the underlying graph model of graph databases such as Neo4j, JanusGraph and OrientDB where data is stored in the nodes and edges as key-value pairs. In effect, code property graphs can be stored in graph databases and queried using graph query languages.

  5. One-time pad - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One-time_pad

    One way to implement this quantum one-time pad is by dividing the 2n bit key into n pairs of bits. To encrypt the state, for each pair of bits i in the key, one would apply an X gate to qubit i of the state if and only if the first bit of the pair is 1, and apply a Z gate to qubit i of the state if and only if the second bit of the pair is 1.

  6. ElGamal signature scheme - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ElGamal_signature_scheme

    The algorithm uses a key pair consisting of a public key and a private key. The private key is used to generate a digital signature for a message, and such a signature can be verified by using the signer's corresponding public key. The digital signature provides message authentication (the receiver can verify the origin of the message ...

  7. Elliptic-curve cryptography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliptic-curve_cryptography

    Elliptic-curve cryptography (ECC) is an approach to public-key cryptography based on the algebraic structure of elliptic curves over finite fields. ECC allows smaller keys to provide equivalent security, compared to cryptosystems based on modular exponentiation in Galois fields, such as the RSA cryptosystem and ElGamal cryptosystem. [1]

  8. Playfair cipher - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Playfair_cipher

    A good tutorial on reconstructing the key for a Playfair cipher can be found in chapter 7, "Solution to Polygraphic Substitution Systems," of Field Manual 34-40-2, produced by the United States Army. Another cryptanalysis of a Playfair cipher can be found in Chapter XXI of Helen Fouché Gaines' Cryptanalysis / a study of ciphers and their ...

  9. Johnson's algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johnson's_algorithm

    Johnson's algorithm consists of the following steps: [1] [2] First, a new node q is added to the graph, connected by zero-weight edges to each of the other nodes.; Second, the Bellman–Ford algorithm is used, starting from the new vertex q, to find for each vertex v the minimum weight h(v) of a path from q to v.
