  2. Deniable encryption - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deniable_encryption

    One example of deniable encryption is a cryptographic filesystem that employs a concept of abstract "layers", where each layer can be decrypted with a different encryption key. [ citation needed ] Additionally, special " chaff layers" are filled with random data in order to have plausible deniability of the existence of real layers and their ...

    See traffic encryption key. symmetric key - a key that is used both to encrypt and decrypt a message. Symmetric keys are typically used with a cipher and must be kept secret to maintain confidentiality. traffic encryption key (TEK)/data encryption key (DEK) - a symmetric key that is used to encrypt messages. TEKs are typically changed ...

  4. Public-key cryptography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public-key_cryptography

    In an asymmetric key encryption scheme, anyone can encrypt messages using a public key, but only the holder of the paired private key can decrypt such a message. The security of the system depends on the secrecy of the private key, which must not become known to any other.

  5. Plausible deniability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plausible_deniability

    The new paradigm is to separate public and private keys again after they have been used, in the case of asymmetric encryption, or to remove the temporary, ephemeral key from the content in the case of symmetric encryption. "Trepidation of Relationship” builds on this concept and refers to the relationships between users in a network. The use ...

  6. Cryptographic key types - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryptographic_key_types

    A public authentication key is the public key of an asymmetric key pair that is used with a public key algorithm to determine the integrity of information and to authenticate the identity of entities, or the source of messages, communication sessions, or stored data. Symmetric data encryption key

  7. PKCS - Wikipedia

    PKCS Standards Summary; Version Name Comments PKCS #1: 2.2: RSA Cryptography Standard [1]: See RFC 8017. Defines the mathematical properties and format of RSA public and private keys (ASN.1-encoded in clear-text), and the basic algorithms and encoding/padding schemes for performing RSA encryption, decryption, and producing and verifying signatures.

  8. Ciphertext indistinguishability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ciphertext_indistinguish...

    However, in addition to the public key (or encryption oracle, in the symmetric case), the adversary is given access to a decryption oracle which decrypts arbitrary ciphertexts at the adversary's request, returning the plaintext. In the non-adaptive definition, the adversary is allowed to query this oracle only up until it receives the challenge ...
