http://www.epic.org/crypto/

Extractions: Media Coverage of Recent Proposals Previous News Reports Policy Areas ... Other Materials In the wake of the terrorist attacks in New York City and Washington D.C. on September 11, 2001, there have been renewed calls among some lawmakers for restrictions on the use and availability of strong encryption products. In Congressional floor statements on September and , Senator Judd Gregg (R-NH) called for a global "new regime" in the area of encryption which would grant law enforcement access to private keys. Sen. Gregg has now stated, however, that he does not intend to introduce a bill to give effect to this proposal. Civil liberties and privacy advocates strongly oppose any attempts to require key escrow, key recovery or other means of accessing encryption keys, arguing that they are an unjustified restriction of individuals' fundamental privacy rights, detrimental to security, costly, subject to massive abuse, and ultimately ineffective crime prevention methods. Technology and security experts also oppose any restricitons on encryption, arguing that they would damage comsumer trust in e-commerce transactions.

The Applied Cryptography Case
The Applied cryptography Case Only Americans Can Type! In January14, 2000, new US crypto export regulations went into effect.
http://people.qualcomm.com/karn/export/

Extractions: In January 14, 2000, new US crypto export regulations went into effect. Publicly available encryption source code, such as that at issue in my lawsuit, is now effectively freely exportable. Therefore, we decided to allow our case to be dismissed as moot. While this was admittedly not as satisfying as actually winning in court, for all practical purposes I got everything I wanted. My own case was narrowly focused on the government's ridiculous distinction between crypto source code printed on paper and crypto source code on electronic media. The other two challenges to US encryption export regulations, the Bernstein and Junger cases, are broader Constitutional attacks, and they continue through the appeals process. Junger got a ringing endorsement from the 6th Circuit Court of Appeals that was even more noteworthy in coming out after the January regulations. With two separate appellate courts now holding that source code is protected by the First Amendment, I think things are in much better shape than they were when I started my quest six and a half years ago. There are still some legal documents that I have not yet put up here. I will do that as I get the chance. (21 Jun 2000)
How SSL Works
The article explains how secure sockets layer (SSL) employs public key cryptography techniques for internet security. (Netscape).

Extractions: AN INTRODUCTION TO KEY CRYPTOGRAPHY RSA Data Security Inc. for use in its products, specifically for authentication. Public key encryption is a technique that uses a pair of asymmetric keys for encryption and decryption. Each pair of keys consists of a public key and a private key. The public key is made public by distributing it widely. The private key is never distributed; it is always kept secret. Data that is encrypted with the public key can be decrypted only with the private key. Conversely, data encrypted with the private key can be decrypted only with the public key. This asymmetry is the property that makes public key cryptography so useful. USING PUBLIC KEY CRYPTOGRAPHY FOR AUTHENTICATION Authentication is the process of verifying identity so that one entity can be sure that another entity is who it claims to be. In the following example involving Alice and Bob, public key cryptography is easily used to verify identity. The notation means that something has been encrypted or decrypted using key Suppose Alice wants to authenticate Bob. Bob has a pair of keys, one public and one private. Bob discloses to Alice his public key (the way he does this is discussed later). Alice then generates a random message and sends it to Bob:

Elliptic Curve Cryptography FAQ V1.12 22nd December 1997
Explains the difference between an elliptical curve and an ellipse. Discusses fields, applications, choosing a fixed point, and related topics.
http://www.cryptoman.com/elliptic.htm

Extractions: Well for a start, it is not the same as an ellipse! But to be more positive: from school mathematics, you probably know the equation for a circle centred on the (a,b) of radius r, which is (x-a)^2 + (y-b)^2 = r^2 where x, y, a, b and r are real numbers. An elliptic curve is also defined by an equation, but it has the slightly more complicated form: Again x and y are variables, a and b are constants. However, these quantities are not necessarily real numbers, instead they may be values from any field. For cryptographic purposes we always use a "finite" field - that is x, y, a and b are chosen from a finite set of distinct values. [In fact the equation given here is not the most general possible, but it will serve for the purposes of this FAQ, and as far as I know for all cryptographic purposes.] The familiar examples of fields are real numbers, complex numbers, rational numbers (fractions) and integers modulo a prime number. The latter is an example of a "finite field". The requirements of a field are normal addition and multiplication, plus the existence of both additive and multiplicative inverses (except that doesn't have a multiplicative inverse). To put it another way, a field has addition, subtraction, multiplication and division - and these operations always produce a result that is in the field, with the exception of division by zero, which is undefined.

They were astonishingly successful, and as a result provided the allied war machine with an unprecedentedly complete picture of the enemy plans and dispositions. I was fortunate to be chosen to be a member of that team. In this talk I describe our work and the atmosphere in which it was conducted. I will further give a description of the special contribution of the famous logician Alan Turing, whom I knew well for the last 10 years of his tragically short life.
The Future Of Cryptography
The Future of cryptography. Dorothy E. Denning Georgetown University. A new paradigmof cryptography, key escrow, is emerging and gaining acceptance in industry.
http://www.cosc.georgetown.edu/~denning/crypto/Future.html

Extractions: Georgetown University Revised January 6, 1996 A few years ago, the phrase crypto anarchy was coined to suggest the impending arrival of a Brave New World in which governments, as we know them, have crumbled, disappeared, and been replaced by virtual communities of individuals doing as they wish without interference. Proponents argue that crypto anarchy is the inevitable and highly desirable outcome of the release of public key cryptography into the world. With this technology, they say, it will be impossible for governments to control information, compile dossiers, conduct wiretaps, regulate economic arrangements, and even collect taxes. Individuals will be liberated from coercion by their physical neighbors and by governments. This view has been argued recently by Tim May [1]. Behind the anarchists' vision is a belief that a guarantee of absolute privacy and anonymous transactions would make for a civil society based on a libertarian free market. They ally themselves with Jefferson and Hayek who would be horrified at the suggestion that a society with no government control would be either civil or free. Adam Ferguson once said "Liberty or Freedom is not, as the origin of the name may seem to imply, an exemption from all restraints, but rather the most effectual applications of every just restraint to all members of a free society whether they be magistrates or subjects."

Or does security provide some very basic protections that we are naive to believe that we don't need? During this time when the Internet provides essential communication between tens of millions of people and is being increasingly used as a tool for commerce, security becomes a tremendously important issue to deal with. There are many aspects to security and many applications, ranging from secure commerce and payments to private communications and protecting passwords. One essential aspect for secure communications is that of cryptography, which is the focus of this chapter. But it is important to note that while cryptography is
Linux 2.4: Next Generation Kernel Security
Selective privileges (capabilities), cryptography, random number devices.
http://www.linuxsecurity.com/feature_stories/kernel-24-security.html

Extractions: [Printer Friendly] This document outlines the kernel security improvements that have been made in the 2.4 kernel. A number of significant improvements including cryptography and access control make 2.4 a serious contender for secure corporate environments as well as private virtual networking. One of the most obvious and significant improvements in the 2.4 kernel is the packet filtering capabilities . However, there are a number of other improvements that make Linux one of the most secure operating systems available. Capabilities: Removing Dependance on "root" As you know, the "root" user normally has complete control over all functions of a Linux box. Binding to a privileged port, loading kernel modules, and managing filesystems are examples of things that typically can only be done by root. If a regular user needed to run the "ping" command, for example, it was necessary to make it run with the privileges of the root user. The ping binary needs root privileges in order to open a raw socket (an operation managed by the kernel) to create the necessary ICMP packet for the echo request.

EPIC Senior Fellow Wayne Madsen was the principal researcher and writer. Members of the Global Internet Liberty Campaign provided assistance. Lisa Kamm created the HTML version of the Report. The Importance of Cryptography Emerging computer and communications technologies are radically altering the ways in which we communicate and exchange information. Along with the speed, efficiency, and cost-saving benefits of the "digital revolution" come new challenges to the security and privacy of communications and information traversing the global communications infrastructure. Governmental regulation of cryptographic security techniques endangers personal privacy. Encryption ensures the confidentiality of personal records, such as medical information, personal financial data, and electronic mail. In a networked environment, such information is increasingly at risk of theft or misuse. In their "Resolution in Support of the Freedom to Use Cryptography," members of the Global Internet Liberty Campaign (GILC) noted that "the use of cryptography implicates human rights and matters of personal liberty that affect individuals around the world" and that "the privacy of communication is explicitly protected by Article 12 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, Article 17 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, and national law." See Resolution in Support of the Freedom to Use Cryptography, September 25, 1996 (Appendix B).
