About

The purpose of this project is to promote and develop cryptography.

It includes the collection of known tools, libraries, articles, materials, hash functions, and ciphers.

Also it's a place for people who share an interest in cryptography and want to discuss about it.

If you invent a new hash function or ciphers, or write an paper related to cryptography just add it here. That is the right place. See contributing section in README.md

Definitions

Hash functions

Hash function - any function that can be used to map digital data of arbitrary size to digital data of fixed size, with slight differences in input data producing very big differences in output data.

Used in: Database, Filters, Hash tables, Unique identifiers, Passwords, Diff utilities, and File system

Avalanche - a measure of how the output bits change based on each input bit. Ideally each input bit will affect each output bit with 1/2 probability.

Realistically, many hash functions do not achieve perfect avalanche and are still useable for many sets of keys.

Ciphers

Cipher - an algorithm for performing encryption or decryption—a series of well-defined steps that can be followed as a procedure.

There are 2 types of key algorithms: Symmetric and Asymmetric

Block cipher - a deterministic algorithm operating on fixed-length groups of bits, called blocks, with an unvarying transformation that is specified by a symmetric key.

It can also be continuous stream of symbols. (stream ciphers)

List of hash functions

This is a list of hash functions, including cyclic redundancy checks, checksum functions, and cryptographic hash functions.

For each function are included: description, implementations and materials.

Cyclic redundancy checks

A cyclic redundancy check (often CRC) is an error-detecting code commonly used in digital networks and storage devices to detect accidental changes to raw data.

New hash function

Anyone can create a function. You can add to this list a function that is not yours but it already exists. To make your own, remember that the following conditions must be met.

  • Unique name - That which does not exist yet.
  • Informations - Date of creation, structure, first published, series, etc.
  • Authors - Everyone who worked on it.
  • Cryptanalysis - The disadvantages, advantages.
  • Materials - Your research, documents.
  • Implementations - Example implementation (C, C++).
  • Pseudocode - Outline of the algorithm.

Add it to the appropriate section in the README.md and create a new directory as have other functions. (ex. Pearson hashing)

Thanks

  • Others who have written tons of material!!!
