I am a software engineer by profession and a mathematics undergraduate in the evenings. I speak French, and I am generally interested in operating systems. My corner of the web is here and you might be interested in code I have written.

Does encrypting twice using the same block cipher produce a security weakness? Edit to improve grammar. |

In RSA, rationale for prime $p$ with $p-1$ having prime factor $u$ with $u-1$ having large prime factor? Title texed, added the missing "d" into Pollard's :) |

How big an RSA key is considered secure today? Thought you'd be interested to know I submitted this question to be promoted on the Stack Exchange social media outlets - also, question - because you've edited the answer so many times its turned into "community wiki" i.e. the edit bar is lower and you get no rep for upvotes. Want me to turn it back? It's an auto feature designed to credit multiple authors (which there aren't in this case), but if a mod reverts the CW conversion, it'll stay reverted forever. |

How secure is AES-256? A side note; in general, this question crypto.stackexchange.com/questions/579/… has some good answers on how we can reason about government capabilities. |

Can a user of a password-protected Wi-Fi sniff on other user's communication? This might functionally be answered by this question on security? |

Is compressing data prior to encryption necessary to reduce plaintext redundancy? Hello, I've edited the title of the question to better reflect what I think you're asking. If you don't like it, do feel free to revert it (you can click on the edit link at any point) or ask me to. |

Educational videos for security topics I'm going to close this for now - for starters, it's not specifically about cryptography and we really need a way to make it answerable - as opposed to questions asking for lists which don't really work very well with us. You can edit your question at any time - if you can nail down exactly what you're looking for and make it less list-inviting, I and the other mods will happily look at it again :) |
