Data Encryption Standard (DES) is a block cipher algorithm that creates plain text in blocks of 64 bits and transform them to ciphertext using keys of 48 bits. It is a symmetric key algorithm, which defines that the similar key is used for encrypting and decrypting information.DES takes a 64-bit ... Read More

There are several applications of cryptographic hash function are as follows −Digital Signature − Hand-written signature is a method to prove that a paper file is signed by us and not by someone else. It can prove this and the current hand-written signature is compared with one or more of ... Read More

The Secure Hash Algorithm (SHA) was invented by the National Security Agency (NSA) and published in 1993 through the National Institute of Standard and Technology (NIST) as a U.S. Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS PUB 180).SHA depends on and shares the similar building blocks as the MD4 algorithm. The design ... Read More

SHA stands for secure hashing algorithm. SHA is a modified version of MD5 and used for hashing information and certificates. A hashing algorithm shortens the input information into a smaller form that cannot be learned by utilizing bitwise operations, modular additions, and compression functions.SHAs also help in revealing if an ...

DES stands for Data Encryption Standard. The Data Encryption Standards (DES) algorithm was invented by IBM in the early 1970s. It obtain the plaintext in 64-bit blocks and changes it into the ciphertext that need the 64-bit keys to encrypt the information. The algorithm need the similar key to encrypt ... Read More
