Comments on: A short primer on cryptography http://cbsmth.se/misc/essay-cryptography/ Mostly internet- and programming-related topics Wed, 04 Apr 2012 04:40:40 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3 By: Fredrik Karlström http://cbsmth.se/misc/essay-cryptography/comment-page-1/#comment-1663 Fredrik Karlström Fri, 09 Dec 2011 03:35:32 +0000 http://cbsmth.se/?p=808#comment-1663 Thank you. It's very interesting, isn't it? When it's about implementing password encryption in one's own applications, I'd for one recommend bcrypt (<a href="http://codahale.com/how-to-safely-store-a-password/">http://codahale.com/how-to-safely-store-a-password/</a>); in live environments, password storage tends to be one of those things one should avoid rolling by oneself. Didn't mention actual implementation as it was not in the scope of the essay, but it's definitely stuff for an interesting article. Thanks for the feedback, and good luck with the blog-construction! :D Thank you. It’s very interesting, isn’t it?

Cryptography is one of my personal interests and, once I finish building my blog (and come up with a name for it), I'm going to publish my own piece on a method for implementing encryption in PHP/MySQL and/or PHP/File IO if you wish to have "shred -u" functionality.
