New option visible. |
I have begun work on a new upgrade for my encryption application for Android which I call Crypto Helper. This upgrade
will give an optional AES256 layer on top of the my version of a one
time pad cypher for added security and some extra forgiveness if a key
is used more than once. One time pad is unbreakable if random keys are
used and they are destroyed after use, and keys must be as long as the
message being encrypted. AES256 will cover those tiny issues in one time
pad. I have also upgraded the secure key feature so old cyphers made
with the old secure key generator will not work, however the new secure
key system is way more robust for proper usage of one time pad and makes
intrusion into your personal data much harder. Cyphertext generated without the
secure key feature will be unaffected by this upgrade.
I can't easily show the differences in the key security algorithm, all you'd see is different text. But the new check box for AES256 is visible.
The
update should be out by the end of the week if nothing goes wrong,
though programmers must always expect failure because programs tend to
misbehave when one needs them to function.
