How does CipherSafe.NET™ work?

CipherSafe.NET™ FAQ's
First, you use the CipherSafe.NET™ GUI tool to define the application profile that contains sensitive settings. Then you add a reference to the CipherSafe.NET™ library to your project and call a method to retrieve sensitive application settings. Once the application is deployed, an administrator must either import an already existing application profile or define it from scratch on the server where your application runs. [See a detailed example...]

What does the encryption key do?

Your-Data Internet Backup - Frequently Asked Questions
Your encryption key is seen as a pass phrase by our systems. A random encryption key is automatically generated when any account is created and this random key (and not the pass phrase specified by you) is used to encrypt your files. The encryption key is protected by the pass phrase and without this pass phrase you cannot decode the actual encrypted data. When you change the encryption key in the software, the key is decrypted and re-encrypted with the new pass phrase.

How does BitWise use encryption and how can I verify it?

BitWise IM - FAQ
The short answer: BitWise uses encryption on all messages and files sent between you and your contacts; this includes whiteboards, shared file lists, and chat rooms. You can verify the encryption by using a packet sniffer on yourself to watch your network traffic. The long answer: Our white paper Introduction to encryption and how BitWise uses encryption explains in detail how BitWise's encryption works and how the encryption protects and benefits you.

What kind of encryption does Cryptainer LE use?

Cypherix Products - Cryptainer LE Frequently Asked Questions
Cryptainer LE runs as a special Windows device driver. It operates on a 128 bit implementation of the Blowfish algorithm in Cipher Block Chaining mode with a block size of 64 bytes. This ensures that data encrypted using Cryptainer LE is impermeable to all known forms of attack. Statistically, it would be impossible to successfully brute-force crack the Cryptainer LE encryption. Blowfish was designed by Bruce Schneier.

What is the best algorithm to use?

RL FAQ
The true answer, of course, is that we don't know, and that it probably hasn't been invented yet. Each algorithm has strengths and weaknesses, and the current favorite changes every few years. In the 1980s actor-critic methods were very popular, but in the 1990s they were largely superceded by value-function methods such as Q-learning and Sarsa.

What algorithm does GSOLVER use?

GSOLVER FAQ
GSOLVER solves the full vector Maxwell's equations for each grating layer. The fields are then matched across each boundary giving the fields in the superstrate and substrate. The diffraction efficiency is then determined for each real propagating order. The first order Maxwell's equations are written down using a fourier decomposition of the permitivity (and impermitivity) in each layer. The curl equations are used to eliminate the H field giving equations in the E fields.

Can I use CipherSafe.NET™ data restored from a drive image on a different system?

CipherSafe.NET™ FAQ's
Not in a typical scenario (otherwise a hacker would be able to do the same). This is one of those cases where security should be more important than convenience. It is worth mentioning that while CipherSafe.NET™ installation and configuration process requires certain manual steps (just a couple), these steps can be automated. However, if you use the same machine key protected by the Key Manager service on both systems along with the same application directory structure, it may be possible.

What algorithm and cipher mode should I use to apply the strongest encryption?

PowerKey ( encryption toolkit \ protect your sensitive data ...
Use algorithms comparison table to choose the algorithm. We recommend to use Blowfish, RC2, Rijndael or Cast-128. As for the cipher mode, we suggest CBC mode, as it produces cipher text dependent on all previous blocks, which outcrosses the possibility to perform a smart bruteforce attack.

How does the algorithm operate?

Sleep Apnea | BiPAP® autoSV™ Frequently Asked Ques...
The algorithm is based on flow. Using proven RI technologies such as Digital Auto-Trak, the flow signal is analyzed and a target flow is calculated. If the patient reaches the flow target, the device does not offer any additional pressure support. If the patient does not reach the flow target the device will dynamically change pressure support breath to breath. No – The device does not have an auto-titrating algorithm to alleviate obstructive events.

What encryption algorithm should we be using? What is AES?

Solutions - Enterprise Trustset
Previously, the best known encryption algorithm in the world was DES (Data Encryption Standard) developed by IBM where it was codenamed Lucifer. Many questions had been raised in the security communities over the continuing safety of that algorithm given the available computer power today to break that algorithm. There were already several algorithms available that were thought to be more resistant to attack than DES. These included CAST, RC2, RC4, Blowfish, Triple or 3-DES.

What is the 7800 encryption algorithm?

Atari 2600/7800 FAQ
The 7800 uses an encryption key to determine whether or not the 7800 cartridge is valid and to allow the system to be put in 7800 mode as opposed to 2600 mode. The encryption algorithm is said to be proprietary. Rumors exist, however, that Atari released the algorithm for use on the the Atari ST series of computers. If anybody has this program we would all be very happy to have a look at it.
