Why doesn't FileAssurity offer a choice of encryption algorithms?

FileAssurity - Trouble Shooting - General Product FAQs
Choosing an encryption algorithm is a non-trivial undertaking. The overwhelming number of users want a product that is best of breed, not a product demanding they make choices they don't want to understand. ArticSoft have followed the most up to date guidance given by bodies such as the US National Institute of Science and Technology (NIST) in their recommendation for the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) chosen to replace the Data Encryption Standard (DES).

What are encryption algorithms?

ICT Authority - IT - FAQ
Encryption algorithms are mathematical formulas that are used to transform a readable message to a message that can only be read by the intended recipient. In this encryption method the information is encrypted so that only the intended recipient is able to read and transform the message. The message can be intercepted, but it is useless to a person, who cannot decrypt it. Encryption and decryption of the information requires, in addition to the encryption algorithm, a key.

Q11. Are you using proprietary encryption algorithms?

Application Security Inc. - DbEncrypt - Database Encryption ...
We are not inventing new encryption algorithms for use in this product. DbEncrypt supports dozens of industry-standard, royalty-free algorithms including AES (Advanced Encryption Algorithm), DES, RSA, and Twofish. The algorithms we have chosen to use have withstood the tests of time as well as public scrutiny.

Can I use other encryption algorithms such as RC2, RC4, or Twofish?

Powertech - Products - Encryption
AES encryption is not the only encryption algorithm that provides strong encryption. There are other encryption algorithms that can be used to secure your data. However, AES encryption is the current federal standard, and likely to be the basis for future state and federal regulations. AES encryption is the only algorithm that has a federally supported certification process.

What is encryption?

Cypherix Products - Cryptainer LE Frequently Asked Questions
Encryption garbles your data by using irreversible mathematical functions. It is simply the encoding of data so that it cannot be read by anyone who does not know the password that decodes it.

Wakulla Bank: Online Banking: FAQ
Encryption technology ensures that another party cannot access your confidential account information. Encryption is a way to rewrite something in a code, which can be decoded later with the right "key". When you request information about your accounts, the information is sent across the web in an encrypted format. When the information reaches you, it is decoded so that you and no one else can read it.

Why offer a Choice?

choice faq
It's the right thing to do. Columbia Gas believes that homeowners and commercial customers should be able to buy gas from a variety of competitive suppliers, just as industrial customers have done for many years. We call it "energy economic democracy," and it's at the heart of our Choice program. Columbia believes that by opening the market to competition, our customers can take advantage of pricing options and new services. And that raises the level of satisfaction for everyone.

Are your algorithms and choice of mathematics really the best that can be used?

Stefano Hourmouzis Roulette Computers - Frequently Asked Com...
ABSOLUTELY. I did not pay two completely independent and highly qualified mathematicians a small fortune for nothing. They BOTH designed almost identical algorithms - that is complex polynomials to the order of 6, but with a twist that's a trade secret I won't reveal. It is the ONLY way to accurately model what actually occurs on the real roulette wheel. I have also tested many other algorithms, and none are more effective than the present algorithms.

What about algorithms?

Curriculum and Instruction Department - Denver Public School...
The word algorithm is a part of your children’s working vocabulary when they use the Everyday Mathematics program. An algorithm is a set of rules or well-defined procedure guaranteed to achieve a certain objective. For example, following the directions for assembling a new toy for your child, using a recipe, and following any procedure are all examples of algorithms. In mathematics, an algorithm is a recipe for computation.

Typically you use a recipient public key to establish a cipher key, and then use the cipher key to encrypt the bulk of the message. The integrity of the message is assured by including a MAC of the message. The authenticity of the sender is assured by a digital signature and some certificates. You could look at something like SSL or S/MIME for an example, although these are not really good starting points for designing a new system.

Yes, we have SSL encryption available as an option for all hosting packages that we offer. SSL encryption allows you to accept special information such as credit card number securely. You can request SSL encryption during your account registration or have it enabled later. If you account has SSL encryption enabled, you will receive a subdirectory under secure.vurl.net (usually: https://secure.vurl.net/yoursite.com/) where you can place all content that needs to be encrypted.

What are all those deinterlace algorithms ?

DScaler - Frequently Asked Questions
Yes you can. DScaler is being developped mainly by people using it as an analog source scaler for their projector and they prefer for sure using DScaler from their remote on the sofa rather than from their desk ;-) DScaler is thus filled with keyboard shortcuts for all main options so that you can do everything quickly. We also suggest the use of Girder from Ron Bessems as the application of choice for remote controlling your computer. An export group has been developped. Download it here.

Why doesn't the .NET runtime offer deterministic destruction?

Andy Mc's .NET Framework FAQ
Because of the garbage collection algorithm. The .NET garbage collector works by periodically running through a list of all the objects that are currently being referenced by an application. All the objects that it doesn't find during this search are ready to be destroyed and the memory reclaimed. The implication of this algorithm is that the runtime doesn't get notified immediately when the final reference on an object goes away - it only finds out during the next 'sweep' of the heap.

What about encryption speed?

Frequently Asked Questions
This heavily depends on the number of files because the file open operation may take considerable time. For example, encrypting a 10Mb file will take a second or two, while the time, required to encrypt 10,000 1kb files, will probably be close to several minutes. This is a Windows limitation; if you copy the files with the Windows Explorer, you will see exactly the same picture. In general, our products work very fast.

How secure is Encryption?

Cypherix Products - Cryptainer LE Frequently Asked Questions
Passwords within most programs (Word, Excel, Access etc.) can be broken by mere novices without any computing knowledge. Such password breaking tools are easily available on the Worldwide Web, for as little as $5.95, or sometimes even for free! On the other hand, a file that is encrypted with a strong encryption algorithm, for example Blowfish 128 bit that Cryptainer™ LE uses, is statistically impregnable against brute force attacks.

It is very difficult to recommend one or two carriers to all people all the time. Different familes have different carrying needs, and while we would love to be able to be able to recommend a single option we cannot always do so. Slings that are easy to breastfeed in are not always the best for carrying older babies for example.

How does RL relate to genetic algorithms?

RL FAQ
Most work with genetic algorithms simulates evolution, not learning during an individual's life, and because of this is very different from work in RL. That having been said, there are two provisos. First, there is a large body of work on classifier systems that uses or is closely related to genetic algorithms. This work is concerned with learning during a single agent's lifetime (using GAs to organize the components of the agent's mind) and is in fact RL research.
