Lots of people claim that you need to upgrade openssl package, but this will not fix the issue.
The issue is not the openssl package, it is one of the libraries that
the package relies on (libssl).
The output of openssl version -a command …
- Press home button [ ]
- Slide camera button up
- Slide mode to video
- Turn on flash
- Put iPhone on table with light pointed down
- Walk away inconspicuously
Extra points if you set the camera to record (just don't record yourself or sounds) which will fill up the iPhone capacity.
Google SafeSearch and SSL Search for Schools suggests implementing
the following changes to the network:
To utilize the no SSL option for your network, configure the DNS entry for www.google.com to be a CNAME for nosslsearch.google.com.
Here are the reasons why this is a bad idea …
This article will explain how to use wireshark to capture TCP/IP packets. Specifically I will show how to capture encrypted (HTTPS) packets and attempt to document the "dance" a client and server do to build an SSL tunnel.
What is Wireshark?
Wireshark is a network protocol analyzer for Windows …
Consider the following block cipher. Suppose that each block
cipher T simply reverses the order of the eight input bits (so that,
for example 11110000 becomes 00001111).
Further suppose that the 64-bit scrambler does not modify any bits.
With n = 3 iterations and the original 64-bit input equal to 10100000 …
introduction and background
A monoalphabetic cipher uses fixed substitution over the entire message.
You can build a monoalphabetic cipher using a Python dictionary, like so:
monoalpha_cipher = {
'a': 'm',
'b': 'n',
'c': 'b',
'd': 'v',
'e': 'c',
'f': 'x',
'g': 'z …Why does a Hash provide better message integrity then an Internet checksum?
Hash function and checksum function both return a value which cannot be reversed.
An Internet checksum (TCP checksum or IP checksum) is designed to
detect common errors quickly and efficiently. An Internet checksum
does not attempt to prevent …
How many keys are involved for symmetric key encryption? How about public key encryption?
Suppose you have N people who want to communicate with each other using symmetric keys. All communication between any two people, i and j, is visible to group N. Only person i and person j can …
Consider an 8-block cipher and answer the following:
How many possible input blocks does this cipher have?
How many possible mappings are there?
If we view each mapping as a key, then how many possible keys does this cipher have?
To find the input blocks of this cipher we raise …
In loom of recent internet attacks many institutions have started scrambling in attempt to "strengthen" their security stance. I agree that auditing our systems and networks for potential flaws seems appropriate at this time to prevent getting "caught with our pants down". Incidentally, I have recently witnessed the introduction of …
The best security acts like an onion.
