    Passwordless Authentication and Passwordless Security

    Identity is everything. Protect it with Duo.

    It’s no secret — passwords can be a real headache, both for the people who use them and the people who manage them. Over time, we’ve created hundreds of passwords, it’s easy to lose track of them and they’re easily compromised. Fortunately, passwordless authentication is becoming a feasible reality for many businesses. Duo can help you get there.

    xxHash

    xxHash

    Extremely fast non-cryptographic hash algorithm

    xxHash is an extremely fast non-cryptographic hash algorithm, working at RAM speed limit. It is proposed in four flavors (XXH32, XXH64, XXH3_64bits and XXH3_128bits). The latest variant, XXH3, offers improved performance across the board, especially on small data. It successfully completes the SMHasher test suite which evaluates collision, dispersion and randomness qualities of hash functions. Code is highly portable, and hashes are identical across all platforms (little / big endian). Performance on large data is only one part of the picture. Hashing is also very useful in constructions like hash tables and bloom filters. In these use cases, it's frequent to hash a lot of small data (starting at a few bytes). Algorithm's performance can be very different for such scenarios, since parts of the algorithm, such as initialization or finalization, become fixed cost. The impact of branch misprediction also becomes much more present.

    shadowsocks-libev

    shadowsocks-libev

    Bug-fix-only libev port of shadowsocks

    Shadowsocks-libev is a lightweight secured SOCKS5 proxy for embedded devices and low-end boxes. Shadowsocks-libev is written in pure C and depends on libev. It's designed to be a lightweight implementation of shadowsocks protocol, in order to keep the resource usage as low as possible. Snap is the recommended way to install the latest binaries. You can build shadowsocks-libev and all its dependencies by script. The latest shadowsocks-libev has provided a redir mode. You can configure your Linux-based box or router to proxy all TCP traffic transparently, which is handy if you use an OpenWRT-powered router. Although shadowsocks-libev can handle thousands of concurrent connections nicely, we still recommend setting up your server's firewall rules to limit connections from each user. We strongly encourage you to install shadowsocks-libev from jessie-backports-sloppy.

    AWS Encryption SDK for Java
    The AWS Encryption SDK is a client-side encryption library designed to make it easy for everyone to encrypt and decrypt data using industry standards and best practices. It enables you to focus on the core functionality of your application, rather than on how to best encrypt and decrypt your data. The AWS Encryption SDK is provided free of charge under the Apache 2.0 license. With the AWS Encryption SDK, you define a master key provider (Java and Python) or a keyring (C, C#/.NET, and JavaScript) that determines which wrapping keys you use to protect your data. Then you encrypt and decrypt your data using straightforward methods provided by the AWS Encryption SDK. The AWS Encryption SDK does the rest. Without the AWS Encryption SDK, you might spend more effort on building an encryption solution than on the core functionality of your application. By default, the AWS Encryption SDK generates a unique data key for each data object that it encrypts.

    sjcl

    sjcl

    Stanford Javascript Crypto Library

    The Stanford Javascript Crypto Library is a project by the Stanford Computer Security Lab to build a secure, powerful, fast, small, easy-to-use, cross-browser library for cryptography in Javascript. SJCL is small but powerful. The minified version of the library is under 6.4KB compressed, and yet it posts impressive speed results. SJCL is secure. It uses the industry-standard AES algorithm at 128, 192 or 256 bits; the SHA256 hash function; the HMAC authentication code; the PBKDF2 password strengthener; and the CCM and OCB authenticated-encryption modes. Just as importantly, the default parameters are sensible: SJCL strengthens your passwords by a factor of 1000 and salts them to protect against rainbow tables, and it authenticates every message it sends to prevent it from being modified. We believe that SJCL provides the best security which is practically available in Javascript.

    JCryptor

    JCryptor is an encrypting tool based on the Caesar-cipher.

    JCryptor uses the Caesar-cipher to encrypt keystrokes on-the-fly. It can also be used to decrypt an encrypted text easily. Caesar-cipher is a simple encryption algorithm, developed by Julius Caesar, to encrypt his correspondence with Cicero in the ancient world. Therefore it uses a simple character substitution method to replace a given character by another. A keyshift of thirteen is called ROT13. ROT13 can be decrypted by encrypting it again with ROT13. Even today this simple method is used by authorities to protect documents from unintentional reading. --UPDATE-- [25.01.14] Release 1.0 (final) -- Bugfixes [05.05.12] Release 0.2 -- implements polyalphabeticel substitution

    NTK Ultra-Compression

    NTK Ultra-Compression

    Logiciel de compression de fichiers maximal indépendant du temps.

    Le logiciel NTK Ultra-Compression répond à une problématique essentielle de l’ère numérique : comment réduire la taille des données à leur minimum absolu sans compromis sur leur intégrité, tout en s’affranchissant des contraintes temporelles ? Dans un monde où les volumes de données explosent et où les solutions actuelles de compression restent limitées par des compromis entre rapidité, efficacité et complexité, nous proposons une approche disruptive. Les solutions actuelles, telles que le format ZIP ou 7z, bien qu’efficaces, atteignent leurs limites en termes de taux de compression et d’efficacité pour les fichiers volumineux ou complexes. Ces outils sont souvent contraints par des compromis entre rapidité d’exécution et efficacité de stockage. Cette approche disruptive s’adresse notamment aux utilisateurs ayant besoin de manipuler des fichiers volumineux, comme les logiciels, les jeux vidéo ou les bases de données, où chaque octet économisé compte.
