In cryptography, coincidence counting is the technique (invented by William F. Friedman [1]) of putting two texts side-by-side and counting the number of times that identical letters appear in the same position in both texts.
A birthday attack is a bruteforce collision attack that exploits the mathematics behind the birthday problem in probability theory.This attack can be used to abuse communication between two or more parties.
The Mersenne Twister is a general-purpose pseudorandom number generator (PRNG) developed in 1997 by Makoto Matsumoto (松本 眞) and Takuji Nishimura (西村 拓士). [1] [2] Its name derives from the choice of a Mersenne prime as its period length.
Present methods for prime factorization are also inefficient; many modern cryptography systems even rely on that inefficiency. [11] The binary GCD algorithm is an efficient alternative that substitutes division with faster operations by exploiting the binary representation used by computers. [119] [120] However, this alternative also scales ...
