Experts can skip this; this is just a beginner’s learning note, not very substantial. The renowned AES has always been a concept I knew vaguely, but I didn’t understand its details well and often just skimmed over it. Recently, due to circumstances, I reluctantly started to delve into it… After learning about it, I found … Read more
Recently, Jason invited Mei from the Mathematics Department of Fudan University to give five hardcore math classes for friends interested in Web3. Starting from natural numbers, he explained the details of RSA asymmetric encryption. Let me review and try to explain this rather complex topic. (Math warning ahead, but I promise to limit it to … Read more
1. Overview of Cryptographic Algorithms Cryptographic algorithms play a crucial role in today’s digital age. With the rapid transmission and storage of information, protecting data security and privacy has become a top priority. Cryptographic algorithms are mainly divided into three categories: symmetric encryption, asymmetric encryption, and hashing algorithms. Symmetric encryption algorithms are an early and … Read more

In the information age, the security of data has become increasingly important. Whether it is personal data, corporate secrets, or bank transaction records, ensuring they are not maliciously accessed or tampered with is a concern for everyone. Cryptography, as the cornerstone of data security, plays a crucial role. Today, we will explore a powerful and … Read more
If you are still using GSM phones based on earlier signal standards, you better be a bit cautious while using your phone. According to recent reports from foreign media, security researchers have found that they only need to use three NVIDIA GeForce GTX690 graphics cards (GPU) to crack the GSM A5 encryption algorithm. What Is … Read more
