comment How to secure a mental poker protocol?
Thanks for pointing me to those articles, I will read up on them.

comment How to secure a mental poker protocol?
Well, then an answer about how to implement the protocol safely disregarding the legal aspect would be welcome.

comment Security of Pohlig-Hellman exponentation cipher?
The application is mental poker. I asked about the security in a separate question - crypto.stackexchange.com/q/6575/843 .

comment Are there any secure commutative ciphers?
@HenrickHellström - I asked about it in a separate question - crypto.stackexchange.com/q/6575/843 .

comment Are there any secure commutative ciphers?
@CodesInChaos The application is mental poker - the messages are very short.

Actually, here is the question about the same thing - crypto.stackexchange.com/a/1366/843 .

comment Security of Pohlig-Hellman exponentation cipher?
I need a commutative cipher for an application where two or more peers need to encrypt and decrypt data out of order. I can only find information on two algorithms, with this being the better one apparently. I guess I should ask about commutative ciphers in a separate question...

comment Hashing passwords with a salt - why use different salt for everyone?
@starblue Yes, but a single salt plus unique username would prevent the attacker from amortising their effort as they would not be able to look for more than one user's password at a time.

comment Hashing passwords with a salt - why use different salt for everyone?
@StephenTouset I am not implementing such a system myself, I'm just curious about the problem. This question is just to satisfy that curiosity.

comment What is the largest performed/possible bruteforce attack to date?
@RickyDemer Some paper would be ideal, but probably the website will do.

comment Academic papers on ECDSA security
It certainly seems like a good position. Whereas papers on specific classes of curves would be welcome, a broader perspective is also useful.

comment How can I store confident data with OpenID?
That would be preferable. The system is to use that data infrequently only when the user is logged in and performs an explicit action.

comment Secp256k1 ECDSA test vectors
I already have a testing architecture in place from a library implementing curves like P224, but I can't find any external data to test my implementation against. It should work, I can successfully generate, sign and verify anything with it, but comparing it with someone else's implementation would be desirable.

comment A set of key pairs and one hash to secure them
Yes, like a login and password together, so it is unique to the user and only the user can generate the whole variable.
