Is this construct a MAC ? Hi, I have a message M, a hash function H(), and a block cipher with encryption function E() and decryption function D() I calculate S=E(K, H(M)) (encrypt the hash of message with a key K) 1) Can this construct of S be called a mac of the message ? 2) Is it a good one ? I guess one could argue that this... 11 May 2010 04:37
Diffie-Hellman key exchange Hi, let the one-way function be (a ^ b) mod m. What are typical ranges for a, b and m? I guess a can be small ( 10^1 ?) since (a ^ b) becomes rather large very quickly. TIA Steven ... 14 May 2010 07:20

Strongest (digital) signature algorithm ? Hello, I was thinking about using RSA for it's signature capabilities... it's important that messages are signed... the messages themselfes can be out in the open... so encryption/decryption is not really needed and could actually make it less secure for small messages and require extra work for padding. I ... 7 May 2010 16:44
