·
Next up with Cryptopals is a challenge to decrypt AES in ECB mode. This is relatively easy in PHP!
·
A return to Cryptopals means we get to break the repeating-key cipher we were working with before. Breaking crypto is fun!
·
Breaking encryption is fun. Building an encryption cipher is even more so! Let’s continue our Cryptopals journey with XOR.
·
Now that we know how to crack a single-byte XOR cipher, let’s expand and crack even more through Cryptopals’ next challenge.
·
Next up in our Cryptopals walkthrough is some frequency analysis against simple cryptographic keys. Let’s have some fun!
·
Building on our cryptopals encoding work last time, let’s introduce byte-based XOR operations.
·
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!
·
Starting today I kick off a series on the cryptopals crypto challenges, with my implementations in PHP. Feel free to join in the fun!
