Eristic Cryptographic Toolkit Version 4.0
Version 4.0 is under heavy construction as of April 28th 2013
WARNING
Do not use the Eristic Cryptographic Toolkit in any situation that requires any amount of security. You have been warned.
At this point the CRC (Chaotic Random Core) is indended for research. It has not been extensively cryptanalyzed yet. (By anyone who knows what they are doing, anyway.)
Features of the CRC (Chaotic Random Core) Version 4.0:
- Generates a stream of data one 8 bit byte at a time.
- Big, little endian neutral.
- Small and compact. Has no trouble fitting in an 8 bit embedded environment.
- Has eight security levels, each level adds 512 bits of internal state.
- All variables and data types are 8 bit.
Features of Hera-4:
- Generates rotor data from scratch at runtime.
- Generates the rotor header files for the binarys in the toolkit during compile time.
- Serves as a genaric random number generator.
Features of Eris-4:
- Can generate any reasonable number of hash bytes from 1 to 4096.
- Uses unique set of random rotor numbers.
Features of Discordia-4:
- No upper limit on key stream size, Discordia is designed to be keyed with the console or a large file or several small ones.
- Uses a unique set of random rotor numbers.
Features of Athena-4:
- Shuffles the file like a deck of cards so that the same encryption key can be used on multiple files.
- Note that in order for the data that is shuffled with Athena to be secure, it is IMPERATIVE that all files shuffled with the same key have different lengths.
- Uses a unique set of random rotor numbers.
Features of Harmonia-4:
- Provides secure key exchange over an insecure communications channel.
- Uses a unique set of random rotor numbers.
- Under development at the moment.
- Verified the theory of operation on a 4 bit version with pen and paper.
Features of Aphrodite-4:
- Will be used for authentication purposes.
- Uses a unique set of random rotor numbers.
- Under development at the moment.
- I have two different ideas of how I want to implement this at the moment.
