Update #11: AES: Added implementation notes for AES-GCM that explains the nonce-reuse problematic and recommends AES-GCM-SIV as an alternative:

Update #10: Added a disclaimer on how to use recommendations by @CryptPrimer. This will be used on every page, so that you can not miss it. #cryptographyfordevs
In the meantime, I'm wading through resources on Elliptic Curves, but nothing to share publicly, yet.
Update #9: Added page on the ChaCha algorithm and ciphers. This took some time, although ChaCha is arguably much easier than AES!

Just blogged: #Cryptography: What is the difference between Hashing, Signing and MAC?
dev.to/danielkun/cryptograph… (this is an except from cryptography-primer.info/)
Update #8: Added recommendations and code samples for AES key generation on cryptography-primer.info/alg… #Cryptography #cryptographyfordevs
Update #8: Improved the "hash vs. signature vs. MAC" page and included comprehensive comparisons of common hash and signature algorithms: cryptography-primer.info/has… #cryptography #cryptographyfordevs
Update #7: Added a whole new section as an overview of Hashing, Signing and MACs. Detailed information about each will follow cryptography-primer.info/has… #cryptography #cryptographyfordevs
@tepetrol thank you for being my first follower 🤭😃
New content coming soon. Anything you're especially interested in?
Update #6:
- Added a LOGO 🎉
- Redesigned the entry page
- Include only content that is already there in navigation and entry page
- Added a Roadmap
See: cryptography-primer.info/ #cryptography #cryptographyfordevs #cybersecurity
Update #5: Reworked the #encryption overview page (cryptography-primer.info/enc…), fixed some mistakes and properly described AE and AEAD. Also made the "Explore Topics" tiles responsive so that they look good on mobile phones #cryptographyfordevs #cryptography
Update #4: Added #cryptography information regarding the security level of AES: cryptography-primer.info/alg… #cryptographyfordevs
Update #3: AES: Even more word-finetuning regarding the #cryptography choice of modes, and added additional references (all now collected in the footnotes). cryptography-primer.info/alg… #cryptographyfordevs
Update #2: Updated the "modes of operation" section on AES #cryptography. I consider this "good enough" for now and will focus on broader application/use cases of AES next. cryptography-primer.info/alg… #cryptographyfordevs
Need to go much deeper regarding key derivation and actual applications of AES (e.g. data in transit vs. at rest, when not to implement it yourself but use e.g. TLS instead, etc.)
Update #1: Added key derivation code sample for use with AES #cryptography and some more "discouragements" for bad practices. cryptography-primer.info/alg… #cryptographyfordevs
