1 Web Security for Network and System Administrators1 Chapter 4 Encryption

2 Web Security for Network and System Administrators2 Objectives In this chapter, you will: Learn the basics of encryption technology Recognize popular symmetric encryption algorithms Recognize popular asymmetric encryption algorithms Understand a variety of hash encryption algorithms Identify a variety of cryptanalytic attacks

3 Web Security for Network and System Administrators3 Encryption Basics

4 Web Security for Network and System Administrators4 Encryption Basics

5 Web Security for Network and System Administrators5 Encryption Basics Transposition vs. substitution –With transposition ciphers, data is rearranged –With substitution ciphers, data is replaced Block vs. stream –With block ciphers, data is broken into chunks The encryption algorithm and key are then applied to each chunk –With stream ciphers, the encryption algorithm and key are applied to each piece of data continuously until the entire message is transformed into ciphertext

6 Web Security for Network and System Administrators6 Encryption Basics General Problems –Algorithm privacy –Randomness –Performance –Processing power –Key security

7 Web Security for Network and System Administrators7 Symmetric Encryption A symmetric encryption algorithm is generally defined as a system that uses the same key for both encryption and decryption

8 Web Security for Network and System Administrators8 Symmetric Encryption

9 Web Security for Network and System Administrators9 Symmetric Encryption Digital Encryption Standard (DES) Consists of both an algorithm and a key 56-bit key 16-bit blocks 16 rounds Four operating modes ECB (Electronic Codebook) CBC (Cipher Block Chaining) CFB (Cipher Feedback) OFB (Output Feedback)

23 Web Security for Network and System Administrators23 Asymmetric Encryption

24 Web Security for Network and System Administrators24 Asymmetric Encryption

25 Web Security for Network and System Administrators25 Asymmetric Encryption RSA 1.Computes the product of two large primary numbers of equal length: (n = p * q). The length is usually 154-bit or 512-bit. 2.Chooses a random public key, e, so that e < n and relatively prime to the product of (p-1)(q-1). 3.Chooses a random public key component, e, so that e < n and relatively prime to the product of (p-1)(q-1). 4.Computes the private key component, d, using the equation: d = e-1 mod [(p-1)(q-1)]. 5.The private key is then expressed as (d,n) and the public key is expressed as (e,n). To encrypt a message, p, the formula is c = pe mod n where c is the final ciphertext. To decrypt a message, the formula is p = cd mod n.

34 Web Security for Network and System Administrators34 Summary Encryption algorithms produce ciphertext through transposition or substitution. There are two major categories of encryption algorithms: block and stream. Four major problems apply to encryption algorithms: algorithms are not tested sufficiently when kept private, computers do not adequately produce random numbers by default, encryption results in reduced performance, and increased processing power can ultimately break encryption.

35 Web Security for Network and System Administrators35 Summary Symmetric encryption uses the same key for both the encryption and decryption processes. DES, 3DES, AES, RC, IDEA, Blowfish, and Twofish are popular symmetric encryption algorithms. PBE, tokens, smart cards, and biometrics offer a number of ways to protect symmetric keys. Asymmetric encryption uses two keys, one key to encrypt the plaintext and the other to decrypt. The Diffie-Hellman Key Exchange, RSA algorithm, and DSS are robust foundations for public-key encryption.

36 Web Security for Network and System Administrators36 Summary PKI is designed to manage the keys necessary to perform public-key encryption. PKI consists of digital certificates, a certificate authority (CA), a registration authority (RA), certificate directory, and a key backup and recovery server. Hash algorithms take a variable plaintext input and produce a fixed length output. The most popular hash algorithms are the MD series and SHA-1 algorithms. Many cryptanalytic attacks pose threats to today’s encryption systems.
