I am currently taking a masters in computer security. I am greatly interested in programming, cryptography, mathematics, hardware etc. I mainly program in C, but I code in Java, C++, Pyhton, PHP and JavaScript as well. I am here mostly to learn, but I will do my best to contribute once I feel confident enough with my various skills.

Mar 18	comment	Understanding a Blowfish cryptanalysis Writing it down helped a lot actually. It became much clearer, and I now understand where the equation comes from, and why it looks as it does, which was my question. It will suffice for now, so many a hat off to you, and thanks once again!
Mar 18	comment	Understanding a Blowfish cryptanalysis Hmm, ok. It did get a bit messy at toward the end. I'll give it a shot with paper and pen, to see if I can clear things up a bit. But it's not improbable that this is way above me; I haven't spent too much time studying differential cryptanalysis.. But I will most certainly take your advice and read up on the subject. Thank you very much!
Mar 18	comment	Understanding a Blowfish cryptanalysis I got it from an article. Will add link!
Nov 16	comment	Is it safer to encrypt twice with RSA? @CodesInChaos: Thank you, I'll take a look at that!
Nov 16	comment	Is it safer to encrypt twice with RSA? The exercise did not require any previous knowledge, so assuming textbook RSA is probably sufficient :) @mikeazo : Thanks a lot, I do see why it's not safer now. In fact it is very obvious, now that I read it. And no, I don't have any more brute force options in mine :) Thank you!
Nov 16	comment	Is it safer to encrypt twice with RSA? @StephenTouset: This is a theoretical problem, not a practical. Therefore the option to choose a longer key is irrelevant, but thanks for the input.
Nov 16	comment	Is it safer to encrypt twice with RSA? I do follow your arguments, and I agree with them. Although, I was looking for a more mathematical explanation. I've added some info to the question to make it clearer.
