A rainbow table is a large, precomputed table designed to cache the output of cryptographic hash functions to decrypt hashed passwords into plaintext. Rainbow tables were invented by IT expert ...

Functions hash, new_hasher, hmac and sign_message all use HashAlgorithm to define which algorithm to use. I tried adding new hash algorithms supported by Erlang and Node.js. I stumbled on problem with ...

Chaotic hash functions represent a cutting‐edge convergence between nonlinear dynamics and cryptographic science. These functions employ chaotic maps—mathematical systems that exhibit extreme ...

After looking at the recent GoLang update for curiosity, I noticed one standout item. GoLang now uses Swiss Tables for mapping. I'd not heard of this algorithm, so it took a bit of searching to come ...

SHA1, one of the Internet's most crucial cryptographic algorithms, is so weak to a newly refined attack that it may be broken by real-world hackers in the next three months, an international team of ...

In the context of SD-JWT, this applies to: The Issuer’s signing algorithm and the hash function used to create hash pointers to disclosures, The Holder’s signing algorithm for key binding and the hash ...
