Firefly Vector Set (FFVS)

-NSA developed -cooperative key generation scheme used for exchanging asymmetrical key pairs -Diffie-Hellman key exchange

Asymmetric

-PUBLIC-KEY SYSTEM -uses two different keys-a public-key and the private-key -keys generated at the same time and data encrypted with one key can be decrypted with the other key

Symmetric

-SECRET-KEY cryptography -identical copy of the key -very secure -ability to achieve high encryption/decryption speeds using hi-tech crypto systems, significantly faster than public-key systems

Data Encryption Standard (DES)

-converts plaintext into ciphertext using a key that consists of 64 binary digits -of the 64 bits, 56 bits are randomly generated and used directly by the algorithm -remaining 8 are error detection -uses 16 rounds of algorithm operations that mix the data and keys together -unsecure and insufficient for classified use

Problems with the secret-key system

-copies of one key must be distributed to all sides to est. a mirror image. -if a key is distributed through a non-secure communication channel, it may be compromised during transmission -if key is discovered/intercepted by someone else, messages encrypted with any copy of that key can easily be decrypted -very sensitive to cryptanalysis

stream ciphers

-encrypt/decrypt each bit of data one at a time in a continuous stream of encrypted data -operates by a stream of pseudo-random digits (key-stream) being combined with plaintext to generate ciphertext -

Triple Data Encryption Standard (3DES)

-more secure -three-fold compound operation for encryption/decryption -encrypts the message with one key, cipher text encrypted again with a second key, and the resulting cipher text is yet again encrypted with a 3rd key before transmitting the message

KIV-7M (Link Encryptor)

-multi-purpose, programmable Type 1 (can encrypt TS) COMSEC link encryption and key management module that can interoperate with a wide variety of legacy encryption and key management module as well as LEF -SYMMETRIC KEY SYSTEM -users must ensure local end and distant end devices are utilizing the same TEK

Diffie-Hellman key exchange

-one of the earliest -each party generates a public/private key pair and distributes the public key -after obtaining the authentic copy of each other's public keys, can compute a shared secret offline -ex shared secret can by used as key for symmetric cipher

One Time Pad

-one of the most secure types of encryption -random string of digits is used as the key to encrypt your message and that key is never used again

IP Encryption Devices

-operate at layer 3 -ensure secure network-centric connections over satellite, WANs, WiMax, Broadband, Dial-up, and wireless networks

Block Cipher

-operate by encrypting/decrypting one chunk of data at a time -most common symmetric algorithm

PKI allows you to conduct business electronically with the confidence that:

-person IDd as sending the transaction is the originator -person receiving the transacting is the intended recipient -data integrity not compromised -uses two-factor authentication

peer enclaves communication on the PT side of a KG-175D when client transmits data
