  2. Public key fingerprint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_key_fingerprint

    The primary threat to the security of a fingerprint is a second-preimage attack, where an attacker constructs a key pair whose public key hashes to a fingerprint that matches the victim's fingerprint. The attacker could then present his public key in place of the victim's public key to masquerade as the victim.

  3. Secure Hash Algorithms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_Hash_Algorithms

    SHA-1: A 160-bit hash function which resembles the earlier MD5 algorithm. This was designed by the National Security Agency (NSA) to be part of the Digital Signature Algorithm . Cryptographic weaknesses were discovered in SHA-1, and the standard was no longer approved for most cryptographic uses after 2010.

  4. SHA-1 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SHA-1

    Nobody has been able to break SHA-1, but the point is the SHA-1, as far as Git is concerned, isn't even a security feature. It's purely a consistency check. The security parts are elsewhere, so a lot of people assume that since Git uses SHA-1 and SHA-1 is used for cryptographically secure stuff, they think that, Okay, it's a huge security feature.

  5. Intel SHA extensions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_SHA_extensions

    Intel SHA Extensions are a set of extensions to the x86 instruction set architecture which support hardware acceleration of Secure Hash Algorithm (SHA) family. It was specified in 2013. [1]

    Rabin fingerprint: variable multiply tabulation hashing: variable XOR universal one-way hash function: ... SHA-1: 160 bits Merkle–Damgård construction: SHA-224:

  7. Scanner Access Now Easy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scanner_Access_Now_Easy

    On a host with a scanner, the saned daemon runs and handles network requests. On client machines a "net" back end (driver) connects to the remote host to fetch the scanner options, and perform previews and scans. The saned daemon acts as a front end locally, but simply passes requests and data between the network connections and the local scanner.

  8. Integrated Automated Fingerprint Identification System

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integrated_Automated...

    To match a print, a fingerprint technician scans in the print in question, and computer algorithms are utilized to mark all minutia points, cores, and deltas detected on the print. In some systems, the technician is allowed to perform a review of the points that the software has detected, and submits the feature set to a one-to-many (1:N) search.

  9. Collision attack - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collision_attack

    An extension of the collision attack is the chosen-prefix collision attack, which is specific to Merkle–Damgård hash functions.In this case, the attacker can choose two arbitrarily different documents, and then append different calculated values that result in the whole documents having an equal hash value.
