Information Security
 1. Introduction
  ○ Security by obscurity
   § Steganography
    □ Hiding data inside another form of data, like using non-used bits in image to hide a message
     § Cool, but not practical.
     § Disadvantages
      ◊ Algorithm secrecy vs. key secrecy
  ○ Cryptography is everywhere and yet if done right, you can barely see it.
  ○ Goals: 
   § Confidentiality
    □ Secrets stay secret.
   § Integrity
    □ Data is not tampered with.
   § Non-Repudiation
    □ No party can deny sending messages.
   § Authentication
    □ Each party can ensure that the sender is what they expect.
  ○ Cryptography
   § Hashing
   § Encryption
   § Signing
   § Protocols
  ○ Random Number Generators
   § Extremely important, almost all encryption/hashing strength is affected by how random the random number generator is.
   § Don't use simple random number, use a cryptographic random number generator with a sophisticated source of entropy.
   § Pseudorandom number generator
   § Dual_EC_DRBG random generator backdoor
 2. Body
  ○ Hashing (one Way)
   § Properties
    □ Fixed length output no matter what size the input was
    □ Very easy to compute the hash of a given message, however very hard to compute from a hash the corresponding input.
    □ Mathematically infeasible to generate a message that has a given hash
    □ Any modification to a message produces a completely different hash that has no relationship to the original message's hash.
    □ It is mathematically infeasible to find two messages with the same hash. Hash Collision
   § Hashing Functions
    □ Provides data integrity, however lacks authentication
    □ Examples
     ® MD5 
      ◊ Considered Insecure
     ® Secure Hash Family SHA-X, Sha-1, Sha-2 [Sha256, Sha512], Sha-3
      ◊ Sha-1 is considered insecure.
      ◊ Sha-1, Sha-2 designed by NSA
      ◊ Sha-3 is not designed by NSA, Competition winner.
    □ Attacks
     ® Brute force
      ◊ CPU's are getting faster and cheaper every day.
      ◊ GPU's are getting faster and cheaper every day.
      ◊ Special Hash calculating hardware is becoming more available especially with the BitCoin push.
     ® Rainbow table attacks
      ◊ Pre-Calculated tables where you can reverse lookup a hash to a value
      ◊ Try www.crackstation.net
   § Hash Message Authentication Codes (HMAC)
    □ Adds authentication to integrity
    □ Can be used with all previous algorithms, HMACMD5, HMACShA1, HMAC256 … etc.
   § Salted Hash
    □ Adds random salt to mitigate rainbow table
    □ Salts are unique per record, and not a secret.
   § Password Based Key Derivation Function (PBKDF2)
    □ RSA Public Key Cryptographic Standard PKCS #5 Version 2.0
    □ Internet Engineering Task Force RFC 2898 Specification
     ® Adds a lot of iterations to slow it just enough to mitigate brute force (default 50,000 iterations)
     ® Adds random salt to mitigate rainbow table
    □ Disadvantage: It can be easily implemented with hardware which makes it vulnerable to bruteforce even with high number of iterations
   § Bcrypt
    □ Password Hashing function
    □ State of the art password hashing
   § Usages
    □ Integrity Check
Password Storage

○ Encryption (Two Ways)
   § Symmetric Encryption
    □ Same key both encrypts and decrypts the data.
    □ Very fast, yet exchanging key is tricky
    □ Very Algorithmic
    □ Examples
     ® DES Data Encryption Standard (BROKEN)
      ◊ Uses key of 56 bit length
     ® Triple DES (3DES)
      ◊ Uses three keys (or two unique keys) of 56 bit each
     ® AES Advanced Encryption Standard
      ◊ Uses keys of 128, 192 or 256 bits long
    □ Attacks
     ® Brute force
      ◊ Usually mitigated via increasing key length, as difficulty increases exponentially as key size increases, for example time to crack given a modern super computer.
      Key Size Time To Crack
      56 bits 399 seconds
      128 bits 1.02 * 1018 years
      192 bits 1.87 * 1037 years
      256 bits 3.31 * 1056 years
      ◊ Side-Channel Attacks
   § Asymmetric Encryption
    □ Key pairs have mathematical relationship
    □ Each one can decrypt messages encrypted by the other.
    □ Slow, but exchanging key is trivial
    □ Very Mathematical
    □ Anyone can know the Public Key
     ® The Public key can only be used to encrypt data
    □ The Private key is kept secret, and never leaves the recipient's side.
     ® The Private key can only be used to decrypt data
    □ Examples
     ® RSA (Rivest, Shamir and Adelman)
     ® The de-facto standard in the industry
     ® Public and Private keys are based on large Prime Numbers
   § Hybrid Encryption
    □ Uses both Symmetric and Asymmetric encryption at the same time.
    □ Goals:
     ® Use the performance of Symmetric Crypto 
     ® Convenience of sharing keys using Asymmetric Crypto
     ® HMAC for authentication.
    □ Steps: (Order is very important)
     ® Party 1 (Alice)
      1. Generates a random AES Session Key (32 bytes / 256 bits)
      2. Generates a random Initialization Vector (IV) (16 bytes / 128 bits)
      3. Encrypt the message to be sent using the AES Session Key & IV
      4. Calculate an HMAC of the encrypted message using the AES Session key
      5. Encrypt the AES Session Key using the Public Key of Party 2 (Bob) The recipient.
      6. Sends a packet of (Encrypted Message, Encrypted Session Key, Initialization Vector, and HMAC) to Bob
     ® Party 2 (Bob)
      1. Decrypts Session key using his Private Key
      2. Recalculates the HMAC of the encrypted message (Validates message integrity)
       } If HMAC check pass
        – Decrypts the message using the decrypted AES Session Key and Initialization Vector
       } Otherwise, rejects the message because of integrity check failure.

EP47 - AskDeveloper Podcast - Cryptography - Part 2 - Encryption

○ Digital Signatures
   § Goal: verify Authenticity of a message.
   § Based on Asymmetric Cryptography.
   § Basic operations
    1. Public / Private keys generation (using some algorithm like RSA)
    2. Signing algorithm using the private key
    3. Signature verification algorithm using the corresponding public key
   i. Extending previous Example
    • Steps (Order is very important, bold stuff is the difference added to authenticate sender)
     ® Party 1 (Alice)
      1. Generates a random AES Session Key (32 bytes / 256 bits)
      2. Generates a random Initialization Vector (IV) (16 bytes / 128 bits)
      3. Encrypt the message to be sent using the AES Session Key & IV
      4. Calculate an HMAC of the encrypted message using the AES Session key
      5. Encrypt the AES Session Key using the Public Key of Party 2 (Bob) The recipient.
      6. Calculate Signature using the private signing key on the HMAC
      7. Sends a packet of (Encrypted Message, Encrypted Session Key, Initialization Vector, HMAC, and Signature) to Bob
     ® Party 2 (Bob)
      1. Decrypts Session key using his Private Key
      2. Recalculates the HMAC of the encrypted message (Validates message integrity)
       } If HMAC check pass
        – Verify digital signature using Alice Public Key
         w If signature verification pass
          w Decrypts the message using the decrypted AES Session Key and Initialization Vector
         w Otherwise, identity of the sender couldn't not be verified, reject message.
       } Otherwise, rejects the message because of integrity check failure.
    • Why Order matters?
     ® Timing Side-Channel Attacks
     ® Padding-Oracle Attack
     
  ○ Protocols
   § TLS/SSL
    • How TLS/SSL Works?
    • Mitigates against
     ® Man in the Middle Attacks
     ® Authentication, so the client can be sure it is talking to the correct destination.
   § Public Key Infrastructure (PKI)
    • Certificates aka X.509 Certificate (Sha-1 Signature Issues)
     ® A digitally signed file
     ® Identifies (Computer / User / Device)
     ® Has Public & Private Key, only the certificate owner has the Private Key.
     ® Has Expiration date
     ® Information about the CA that issued the cert 
     ® X.509 Extension Attributes (like Usage attribute)
     ® Revocation Information.
    • Certificate Authority (CA) (CNNIC, WoSign)
     ® Issues, signs and manages certificates.
     ® Famous certificate authorities (Verisign, GoDaddy, … etc).
    • Trust Chains
     ® CA's can delegate the signing job to subordinate CA's
      ◊ Root CA's signs an intermediate signing certificate to the subordinate CA
     ® The subordinate CA can then issue certificates
     ® To validate a certificate, the client validates the signatures of all the intermediate stages and make sure all of them are linked to a Trusted CA
    • Certificate Revocation Lists (CRL's)
     ® When a certificate is compromised (Private Key leaked) it will be published on the CRL, so each time the cert is validated, the CRL list is checked in case cert is revoked.
