In a malicious key exhaustion attack, the attacker sends many messages to the recipient and exhausts the private key material, forcing a protocol to choose between failing closed (and enabling denial of service attacks) or failing open (and giving up some amount of forward secrecy). [9]
Crypto API is a cryptography framework in the Linux kernel, for various parts of the kernel that deal with cryptography, such as IPsec and dm-crypt.It was introduced in kernel version 2.5.45 [1] and has since expanded to include essentially all popular block ciphers and hash functions.
Imports a private resident key from a FIDO2 device. -p Requests changing the passphrase of a private key file instead of creating a new private key. -t Specifies the type of key to create (e.g., rsa). -o Use the new OpenSSH format. -q quiets ssh-keygen. It is used by the /etc/rc file while creating a new key. -N Provides a new Passphrase. -B
The pre-shared key may be shared between the two parties, or each party may share a key with a trusted third party. If there is no secure channel (as may be established via a pre-shared key), it is impossible to create an authenticated session key. [10] The session key may be generated via: key transport, key agreement and hybrid.
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.
Secure Shell (SSH) is a protocol allowing secure remote login to a computer on a network using public-key cryptography.SSH client programs (such as ssh from OpenSSH) typically run for the duration of a remote login session and are configured to look for the user's private key in a file in the user's home directory (e.g., .ssh/id_rsa).
Key Wrap may be considered as a form of key encapsulation algorithm, although it should not be confused with the more commonly known asymmetric (public-key) key encapsulation algorithms (e.g., PSEC-KEM). Key Wrap algorithms can be used in a similar application: to securely transport a session key by encrypting it under a long-term encryption key.
The Offline Private Key Protocol (OPKP) is a cryptographic protocol to prevent unauthorized access to back up or archive data. The protocol results in a public key that can be used to encrypt data and an offline private key that can later be used to decrypt that data. The protocol is based on three rules regarding the key. An offline private ...
