On Monday, July 24, 2000, the House Judiciary Committee's Subcommittee
on the Constitution will be holding hearings on "Fourth Amendment
Issues Raised by the FBI's 'Carnivore' Program." The hearings will be
in the Rayburn building, room 2141 at 1pm, for those interested in
attending. There will
I should point out that this construction is not designed to obscure the
input from the output (especially under differential probing), only
to give you m output bits that depend (each in a different way) on
the entire input.
OK, so if I've got a passphrase of arbitrary length, and I wish to
OK, so if I've got a passphrase of arbitrary length, and I wish to
condense it to make a key of length n bits (n 160), what's the
approved method(s) of doing that?
I assume it goes without saying that we wish to preserve as much entropy
as we can, but I'll say it anyway.
I've thought

While writing about OS back-doors, I said:
I'm incredibly skeptical that Microsoft, IBM, or any other vendor

I have no idea what "the technology" is, but all cryptographers know that
the only "absolutely" unbreakable cipher that can ever exist for "open
circuits" is the one-time pad, which not only requires the use of a key,
but requires that the key be as long as the message, and used only once.
