Cryptopals: Set 1 – challenge 5
·
Breaking encryption is fun. Building an encryption cipher is even more so! Let’s continue our Cryptopals journey with XOR.
-
Cryptopals: Set 1 – challenge 4
·
Now that we know how to crack a single-byte XOR cipher, let’s expand and crack even more through Cryptopals’ next challenge.

Cryptopals: Set 1 – challenge 3
·
Next up in our Cryptopals walkthrough is some frequency analysis against simple cryptographic keys. Let’s have some fun!

Cryptopals: Set 1 – challenge 2
·
Building on our cryptopals encoding work last time, let’s introduce byte-based XOR operations.
-
Cryptopals: Set 1 – challenge 1
·
Challenge 1 in the cryptopals suite is to juggle between Base64 and Hex encoding of byte strings. Let’s do just that, with value objects!
