Encryption and stenography Flashcards
What is encryption?
Is how we achieve confidentiality, it does not hide the data, but makes the data incomprehensible
What are the three states of data?
Data at rest, Data in use, and data at transit
What is stream cipher?
Takes and encrypts information byte by byte
What is block ciphers?
It encrypts your information block by block usually in 164 byte parts
What is the comparison between block and stream ciphers
Stream is easier to reverse and faster.
What is the comparison between block and stream ciphers
Stream is easier to reverse and faster.
What is the comparison between block and stream ciphers
Stream is easier to reverse and faster vs Block is harder to reverse and slower
modes of operation
ECB-weakest Cipher block chaining-errors affect whole chain Cipher feedback-works like stream cipher Ouput feedback-works like stream cipher Counter mode-strongest
What is steganography?
It does not encrypt the information it hides the information inside media by replacing some bytes within the image.
