  2. Key exchange - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Key_exchange

    This process is known as the key exchange. The overarching problem with symmetrical cryptography, or single-key cryptography, is that it requires a secret key to be communicated through trusted couriers, diplomatic bags, or any other secure communication channel. If two parties cannot establish a secure initial key exchange, they won't be able ...

  3. XOR swap algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XOR_swap_algorithm

    Using the XOR swap algorithm to exchange nibbles between variables without the use of temporary storage. In computer programming, the exclusive or swap (sometimes shortened to XOR swap) is an algorithm that uses the exclusive or bitwise operation to swap the values of two variables without using the temporary variable which is normally required.

  4. Least frequently used - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Least_frequently_used

    When the cache reaches capacity and has a new block waiting to be inserted the system will search for the block with the lowest counter and remove it from the cache, in case of a tie (i.e., two or more keys with the same frequency), the Least Recently Used key would be invalidated. [2] Ideal LFU: there is a counter for each item in the catalogue

  5. Elliptic-curve Diffie–Hellman - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliptic-curve_Diffie...

    The only information about her key that Alice initially exposes is her public key. So, no party except Alice can determine Alice's private key (Alice of course knows it by having selected it), unless that party can solve the elliptic curve discrete logarithm problem. Bob's private key is similarly secure.

  6. Public-key cryptography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public-key_cryptography

    Public-key cryptography, or asymmetric cryptography, is the field of cryptographic systems that use pairs of related keys. Each key pair consists of a public key and a corresponding private key. [1] [2] Key pairs are generated with cryptographic algorithms based on mathematical problems termed one-way functions.

  7. Linear probing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_probing

    Linear probing is a component of open addressing schemes for using a hash table to solve the dictionary problem.In the dictionary problem, a data structure should maintain a collection of key–value pairs subject to operations that insert or delete pairs from the collection or that search for the value associated with a given key.

  8. Related-key attack - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Related-key_attack

    In cryptography, a related-key attack is any form of cryptanalysis where the attacker can observe the operation of a cipher under several different keys whose values are initially unknown, but where some mathematical relationship connecting the keys is known to the attacker. For example, the attacker might know that the last 80 bits of the keys ...

  9. Compare-and-swap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compare-and-swap

    Is a combination of persist operation and the normal compare-and-swap. It can be used to atomically compare-and-swap a value and then persist the value, so there is no gap between concurrent visibility and crash visibility. The extension solves the read-of-non-persistent-write problem. [17]
