Hello, We are writing to understand the OTR encryption methods. It strikes me that an application which purports to provide secure chat should provide forward secrecy for years to come from brute-force cryptanalysis.
Can someone confirm that OTR uses AES-256 bit cipher in CTR mode, with keys derived from diffie-hellman key exchange using a 1536 bit prime group? We are writing an article: https://fairieunderground.info/node/149 Any other comments or additional details are appreciated. Thanks, Ileana _______________________________________________ OTR-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.cypherpunks.ca/mailman/listinfo/otr-dev
