Trivial question on metadata analysis
Obviously modern sym ciphers like AES and ChaCha are super strong. But wondering about best practice with regard to theoretical statistical analysis about message lengths, times sent etc. is there best practice on this?
Are current cryptography methods vulnerable in any way?
Hi, Im working on a school project about vulnerabilities of current cryptography methods and its implementation in critical infrastructure. I have already done some research, but to be honest there is not much about it, it basicaly boils down to side-channel attacks (this is more of a implementation problem than …
Full beginner here , no knowledge of cryptography whatsoever apart from simple ciphers , what books would u recommend ?
Any books regarding history of cryptography or just some books to get into cryptography would be great
NSA cryptanalysis in the 90's
I was reading an old NSA internal publication about their reliance on HPC for cryptanalytic efforts: [https://media.defense.gov/2021/Jun/29/2002751648/-1/-1/0/NSA_AND_THE_SUPERCOMPUTER.PDF](https://media.defense.gov/2021/Jun/29/2002751648/-1/-1/0/NSA_AND_THE_SUPERCOMPUTER.PDF). My guess is it's from around 1995, as it mentions Cray Computers going bankrupt and Convex purchase by HP. On page 5 it mentions that embarrassingly parallel problems *form only a small fraction …

Concern for Speed and Scalability of NIST PQC?
While I am glad that the NIST announced support for Post-Quantum Algorithms I am concerned about their performance. Speed and scalability matters in the business world because all organizations are constrained by a budget. While I was reading [CloudFlare's blog post](https://blog.cloudflare.com/nist-post-quantum-surprise/) on the speed of Dilithium, Kyber, SPHINCS+, and others …
Reason for not using Curve 448?
I will soon need to generate new PGP keypairs. I originally started with RSA 2048 in 2011, then transitioned to Curve 25519. Now, it's time to re-evaluate my choice of curve. Using GPG 2.4.5 I can access Curve 448. **Is there any reason** ***not*** **to use Curve 448?** I would …
device-to-device encryption protocol
Hello, I was looking for a device-to-device encryption protocol to secure data transfer and I decided to explore Botan and try to use session keypairs or sender key methods in c++. At the moment I'm using DH X and Ed curves but I'm planning to upgrade to Post Quantum algorithms …
