  2. WireGuard - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WireGuard

    The WireGuard protocol is a variant of the Noise Protocol Framework IK handshake pattern, as illustrated by the choice of Noise_IKpsk2_25519_ChaChaPoly_BLAKE2s for the value of the Construction string listed on p10 of the Whitepaper. WireGuard uses the following: [8] Curve25519 for key exchange; ChaCha20 for symmetric encryption

  3. Challenge-Handshake Authentication Protocol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Challenge-Handshake...

    When the peer sends CHAP, the authentication server will receive it, and obtain the "known good" password from a database, and perform the CHAP calculations. If the resulting hashes match, then the user is deemed to be authenticated. If the hashes do not match, then the user's authentication attempt is rejected.

  4. Message authentication code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Message_authentication_code

    20] In this example, the sender of a message runs it through a MAC algorithm to produce a MAC data tag. The message and the MAC tag are then sent to the receiver. The receiver in turn runs the message portion of the transmission through the same MAC algorithm using the same key, producing a second MAC data tag.

    SOCKS4 client handshake packet (above) DOMAIN the domain name of the host to contact , null (0x00) terminated. Server to SOCKS client: (Same as SOCKS4) A server using protocol SOCKS4a must check the DSTIP in the request packet. If it represents address 0.0.0.x with nonzero x, the server must read in the domain name that the client sends in the ...

  6. SYN flood - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SYN_flood

    The server has to spend resources waiting for half-opened connections, which can consume enough resources to make the system unresponsive to legitimate traffic. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] The packet that the attacker sends is the SYN packet, a part of TCP 's three-way handshake used to establish a connection.

  7. Double Ratchet Algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_Ratchet_Algorithm

    An example of this is the Signal Protocol, which combines the Double Ratchet Algorithm, prekeys, and a 3-DH handshake. [7] The protocol provides confidentiality, integrity, authentication, participant consistency, destination validation, forward secrecy, backward secrecy (aka future secrecy), causality preservation, message unlinkability ...

    OPNsense is an open source, FreeBSD-based firewall and routing software developed by Deciso, a company in the Netherlands that makes hardware and sells support packages for OPNsense. Launched in 2015, [ 2 ] it is a fork of pfSense , which in turn was forked from m0n0wall built on FreeBSD . [ 3 ]

  9. TCP half-open - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TCP_half-open

    The term half-open connection can also be used to describe an embryonic connection, i.e. a TCP connection that is in the process of being established. TCP has a three state system for opening a connection. First, the originating endpoint (A) sends a SYN packet to the destination (B). A is now in an embryonic state (specifically, SYN_SENT), and ...
