Blowfish can be found in software categories ranging from e-commerce platforms for securing payments to password management tools, where it used to protect passwords. It’s definitely one of the more flexible encryption methods available.…
5) dPECK(GP,pkS,pkRi,skRi,W): Taking GP,pkS,pkRi,skRi and a keyword set w=(w1,.wl) as the data source, the capacity gives back a ciphertext c1 of w for Ri.…
There was a time in history when the oceans were overly polluted with trash of various sorts. The water was so polluted and the food source for the ocean life was diminishing. This was the habitat of the blowfish. Their food became so scarce they began to eat the very things that were polluting the waters. The blowfish began to mutate with what they were eating. The Bottle Blowfish came to be from a mutation between a plastic bottle and its consumer, the blowfish.…
TrueCrypt supports parallelized encryption for multi-core systems and, under Microsoft Windows, pipelined read/write operations to reduce the performance hit of encryption and decryption. On newer processors supporting the AES-NI instruction set, TrueCrypt supports hardware-accelerated AES to further improve performance. The performance impact of disk encryption is especially noticeable on operations which would normally useDirect Memory Access (DMA), as all data must pass through the CPU for decryption, rather than being copied directly from disk to RAM.…
Every time we have to change our index page htmls for an assignment, we have to log into our personalized servers with passwords. The reason for these passwords is because the information and permissions we have access to should be given to everyone, and therefore the information we have is encrypted from others. As it has become increasingly apparent, our everyday cyber footprint involves many interactions with some sort of encryption. Because of this, most of everything we discuss in class can be considered relevant to the importance of cryptography and/or…
Paul Klee’s painting “Fish Magic” is very profound. It looks like it is trying to tell a story about kids visiting an aquarium. What seems very interesting is the clock in the picture. It only has 4 digits and it represents the date that the painting was created. I don’t believe that this painting is a reflection to the paintings of the 1920’s even though it has an expressionist style. I believe the quote “my aim is to create much spirituality out of little” means that he can create anything big out of…

At ABC Institute of Research, the value of the company is in the confidentiality of what it finds. If for example, ABC were to expend a great investment in finding a solution to a problem, only for DEF Research Inc. to discover their secret, ABC could suffer greatly. In the current age of networks and computers, the information you put in is only as safe as you make it. In order for ABC Institute of Research to keep their investment safe, they must protect their data at all costs. In the following, I will show how ABC can accomplish this using asymmetric cryptology to exchange a secret key and then use symmetric cryptology to ensure the confidentiality of data being sent; I will then show you the advantages and disadvantages.…
Why do whales need blowholes? We see that whales need blowholes yet we are never told why they need them or what they are for. Don’t you ever wonder if the reason they have it is because they need all the water that they have consumed out of their bodies? Or if they need the blowhole to breathe. I hypnotizes that whales have blowholes in their backs to be able to breathe properly, and they have to have the blowhole in the back because they are not capable of breathing thru their mouths.…
The swordfish was first described in 1758 by Linnaeus. It was given the name Xiphias gladius which is still used in present day. The Family of this fish is Xiphiidae, Order is Perciformes, and the Class is Actinopterygii. When it is translated into English, the Latin term gladius means "sword", referring to the long sword-like bill the fish possesses. Some of the English common names include broadbill, broadbill swordfish, and many others. The swordfish is named for its sharp, broad, elongated upper jaw, which it uses to flail and pierce its prey of smaller fish, rising beneath a school to kill and then devour them.…

This paper will establish the policies and security methods that will be implemented by the Bloom Design Group. The Physical Security Policy, Access Control Policy, and Network Policy will each be explained in detail, and then followed by the steps required to reach the goals of the policy. The Bloom Design Group may experience difficulties and some barriers implementing each new policy. This paper will also analyze some of these in an attempt to help the Bloom Design Group overcome some of the difficulties that may be experienced. The Bloom Design Group will need to adhere with the CIA triad that is well known for its data securities. Numerous safety implementations will be made to ensure that any unauthorized people will not have access to sensitive data. Only authorized personnel that have access to the data can tamper or replace data. Finally, the accessibility should be readily available for all personnel that are authorized to access the data.…
Given the potential corporate/organizational risks that these problems pose it is anticipated that businesses and organizations will be searching for state-of-the-art measures to safeguard their data which includes Disk Encryption.…
The security of digital data has long been a concern of operating system designers. The first time-sharing systems in the early 1960s had password schemes as part of logging in, memory protection hardware, and access control lists on files. By 1970, the means to assure security and protection were considered fundamental to operating systems and were an important consideration in the design of OS kernels.…
