CSAW CTF Crypto Challenge: Breaking DSA
The Trail of Bits cryptographic services team contributed two cryptography CTF challenges to the recent CSAW CTF. Today we’re going to cover the easier one, titled “Disastrous Security Apparatus – Good luck, ‘k?” This problem involves the Digital Signature Algorithm (DSA) and the way an apparently secure algorithm can be ...

Building and using cryptographic libraries is notoriously difficult. Even when each component of the system has been implemented correctly (quite difficult to do), improperly combining these pieces can lead to disastrous results. Cryptography, when rolled right, forms the bedrock of any secure application. By combining cutting-edge mathematics and disciplined software ... Read More
