Cryptography | Introduction to Crypto-
terminologies
Cryptography is an important aspect when we deal with network security.
‘Crypto’ means secret or hidden. Cryptography is the science of secret writing
with the intention of keeping the data secret. Cryptanalysis, on the other hand, is
the science or sometimes the art of breaking cryptosystems. These both terms
are a subset of what is called as Cryptology.

Classification –
The flowchart depicts that cryptology is only one of the factors involved in
securing networks. Cryptology refers to study of codes, which involves both
writing (cryptography) and solving (cryptanalysis) them. Below is a
classification of the crypto-terminologies and their various types.
Cryptography –

Cryptography is classified into symmetric cryptography, asymmetric


cryptography and hashing. Below are the description of these types.

1. Symmetric key cryptography –

It involves usage of one secret key along with encryption and decryption
algorithms which help in securing the contents of the message. The strength of
symmetric key cryptography depends upon the number of key bits. It is
relatively faster than asymmetric key cryptography. There arises a key
distribution problem as the key has to be transferred from the sender to receiver
through a secure channel.
2. Asymmetric key cryptography –

It is also known as public key cryptography because it involves usage of a


public key along with secret key. It solves the problem of key
distribution as both parties use different keys for encryption/decryption. It is not
feasible to use for decrypting bulk messages as it is very slow compared to
symmetric key cryptography.

3. Hashing –

It involves taking the plain-text and converting it to a hash value of fixed size
by a hash function. This process ensures integrity of the message as the hash
value on both, sender’s and receiver’s side should match if the message is
unaltered.
Hashing is a one-way process commonly used to validate the integrity of
information. A hash function generates fixed-length value that is always the
same length no matter how large or small the data entering the process.
Additionally, the resulting output is intended to be non-reversible. The fixed
length value generated is unique for every different input that enters the process.
It is because of this unique property and behavior the hashes are used to detect
the alternations to data to any type.

The following is a list of hashing algorithms currently in use:

1.Message Digest 2(MD2): - A one-way hash function used in the privacy-


enhanced mail (PEM) protocols along with MD5.

2.Message Digest 4(MD4): - A one-way hash function used for PGP (Pretty
good Privacy), is another application of cryptographic technologies. Using
public key encryption, PGP is one of the most widely recognized cryptosystems
in the world. PGP has been used to protect the privacy of email, data, data
storage and other forms of communications such as instant massaging.

3.Message Digest 5(MD5): - An improved and redesigned version of MD4 that


produces 128-bit hash.MD5 is still extremely popular in many circles, but it is
being phaseout due to weaknesses that have led to the system being vulnerable.
In many cases, MD5 has been replaced with SHA2.

4.Secure Hash Algorithm-0(SHA-0): - It has been replaced by SHA-1 and


SHA-2.

5. Secure Hash Algorithm-1(SHA-1): - It has been compromised and is being


replaced by SHA-2.
6. Secure Hash Algorithm-2(SHA-2): - Designed to be an upgrade to SHA-
1,SHA-2.
Cryptanalysis –

1. Classical attacks –
It can be divided into a) Mathematical analysis and b) Brute-force attacks.
Brute-force attacks runs the encryption algorithm for all possible cases of the
keys until a match is found. Encryption algorithm is treated as a black box.
Analytical attacks are those attacks which focuses on breaking the cryptosystem
by analyzing the internal structure of the encryption algorithm.

2. Social Engineering attack –


It is something which is dependent on the human factor. Tricking someone to
reveal their passwords to the attacker or allowing access to the restricted area
comes under this attack. People should be cautious when revealing their
passwords to any third party which is not trusted.
3. Implementation attacks –
Implementation attacks such as side-channel analysis can be used to obtain a
secret key. They are relevant in cases where the attacker can obtain physical
access to the cryptosystem.

What is visual cryptography?

Visual cryptography is a cryptographic technique which allows visual


information (pictures, text, etc.) to be encrypted in such a way that decryption
can be done just by sight reading. Visual cryptography, degree associated
rising cryptography technology, uses the characteristics of human vision to
rewrite encrypted photos. Visual cryptography provides secured digital
transmission that is used just for merely the once.
