Cryptography
There are five primary functions of cryptography today:
- Privacy/confidentiality: Ensuring that no one can read the message except the intended receiver.
- Authentication: The process of proving one's identity.
- Integrity: Assuring the receiver that the received message has not been altered in any way from the original.
- Non-repudiation: A mechanism to prove that the sender really sent this message.
- Key exchange: The method by which crypto keys are shared between sender and receiver.
There are several ways of classifying cryptographic algorithms. Based on the number of keys that are employed for encryption and decryption and further defined by their application and use. The three types of algorithms are :
- Private/Secret Key Cryptography (SKC )/ Conventional cryptography: Uses a single key for both encryption and decryption; also called symmetric encryption. Primarily used for privacy and confidentiality.
- Public Key Cryptography (PKC): Uses one key for encryption and another for decryption; also called asymmetric encryption. Primarily used for authentication, non-repudiation, and key exchange.
- Hash Functions: Uses a mathematical transformation to irreversibly "encrypt" information, providing a digital fingerprint. Primarily used for message integrity.
- RSA isn't really built to encrypt large pieces of plaintext. Each RSA "round" can encrypt 117 bytes of data, and to encrypt more, you'd have to use some chaining mode. Currently, this means extra overhead, slowness (remember, RSA is pretty slow), and security uncertainty (RSA-chaningMode hasn't been scrutinized as other types of encryption schemes).
- Not only is RSA too slow to use on bulk data, but it even has certain weaknesses that can be exploited in some special cases of particular kinds of messages that are fed to the RSA cipher, even for large keys.
- These
special cases can be avoided by using the hybrid approach of using RSA
to encrypt random session keys for a conventional cipher, like PGP does.
So the bottom line is this: Using pure RSA on bulk data is the wrong approach, period. It's too slow, it's not stronger, and may even be weaker.
- The additional mechanisms performed by PGP (compression and random key generation) rather than any difference in the performance of the encryption algorithms themselves.
- We also note that Diffie-Hellman marginly outperforms RSA, which is directly in contradiction with earlier findings where RSA was significantly faster. This second point might be the result of the initialisation phase of RSA being more costly and so on a very small amount of data (the randomly generated key), it becomes less efficient than Diffie-Hellman.
PGP : Hybrid Crypto System (Symmetric & Asymmetric)
PGP combines some of the best features of both conventional and public key cryptography. PGP is a hybrid cryptosystem. PGP encryption or Pretty Good Privacy encryption, is a data encryption computer program that gives cryptographic privacy and authentication for online communication. It is often used to encrypt and decrypt texts, emails, and files to increase the security of emails. PGP encryption uses a mix of data compression, hashing, and public-key cryptography. It also uses symmetric and asymmetric keys to encrypt data that is transferred across networks. It combines features of private and public key cryptography. Each step uses a different algorithm, and each public key is associated with a username and an email address
When plaintext is encrypted with PGP, it first compresses the plaintext. Data compression saves transmission time, disk space, and reinforces cryptographic security. Most cryptanalysis methods exploit patterns that are found in the plaintext. However, the asymmetry of PGP encryption allows for authentication. After public keys have been traded among partners, the private keys are used to digitally sign the encrypted content. This allows the decryptor to confirm the sender.
PGP generates a symmetric key to
encrypt data which is protected by the asymmetric key.
- PGP actually implements a solution such that symmetric encryption is used to encrypt data, and asymmetric encryption is used to encrypt the key.
- Since asymmetric encryption can't encrypt anything larger than its own key size. This bundle is commonly referred to as "asymmetric encryption" even though it's a hybrid model.
Difference between RSA and PGP
- PGP is a software suite of encryption algorithms and the ability to encrypt emails, files, etc. RSA is a specific algorithm for encryption and digital signatures.
Difference between AES and PGP
- The encryption PGP offers is just as strong as that of AES, but it adds the additional security that prevents anyone with just the public key from being able to decrypt data that was previously encrypted with it.
- AES is fast and works best in closed systems and large databases; PGP should be used when sharing information across an open network, but it can be slower and works better for individual files.
When a user encrypts plaintext with PGP, PGP first compresses the plaintext. Compression reduces these patterns in the plaintext, thereby greatly enhancing resistance to cryptanalysis. (Files that are too short to compress or which don't compress well aren't compressed.)
PGP Encryption
PGP then creates a session key, which is a one-time-only secret key. This key is a random number generated from the random movements of your mouse and the keystrokes you type. This session key works with a very secure, fast conventional encryption algorithm to encrypt the plaintext; the result is ciphertext. Once the data is encrypted, the session key is then encrypted to the recipient's public key. This public key-encrypted session key is transmitted along with the ciphertext to the recipient.
PGP Decryption
Decryption works in the reverse. The recipient's copy of PGP uses his or her private key to recover the temporary session key, which PGP then uses to decrypt the conventionally-encrypted ciphertext.
The combination of the two encryption methods combines the convenience of public key encryption with the speed of conventional encryption. Conventional encryption is about 1, 000 times faster than public key encryption. Public key encryption in turn provides a solution to key distribution and data transmission issues. Used together, performance and key distribution are improved without any sacrifice in security.
Difference between PGP , OpenPGP and GPG
PGP (Pretty Good Privacy) :
- PGP encryption uses a serial combination of hashing, data compression, symmetric-key cryptography, and, finally,public-key cryptography to keep data secure; each step uses one of several supported algorithms. Each public key is bound to a user name and/or an e-mail address. This process can be used to encrypt text files, emails, data files, directories, and disk partitions.
- The Pretty Good Privacy software originally written by Phil Zimmermann, and now owned by Symantec.At first it was written as copyrighted freeware under the Gnu Public License.
- Later, PGP was upgraded and made into a propriety program. The rights for this program are traded around. The reason for this upgrade was legal defense costs and royalty issues related to the export laws of the USA.
- PGP uses the RSA algorithm and the IDEA encryption algorithm. PGP does not use the DES as its conventional single-key algorithm to encrypt messages. Instead, PGP uses a different conventional single-key block encryption algorithm, called IDEA(tm). By default, PGP uses IDEA.
The formats for keys, encrypted messages and message signatures defined by PGP. These have now been formalised as the OpenPGP standard , which is where GPG comes in.
GPG (GNU Privacy Guard)
- The GPG software is an independent implementation of the OpenPGP standards.GPG is a re-write or upgrade of PGP. It is royalty free because it is not patented. GPG is more compatible than the original PGP with OpenPGP.
- It does not use the IDEA encryption algorithm. This is to make it completely free.It uses the NIST AES, Advanced Encryption Standard. The main reason for this change is that AES costs less than IDEA and is considered more secure.
- GPG uses CAST5 by default.For GnuPG 1.0 default is CAST5,for gnupg-1.4.23 is AES128, for GnuPG 2.0.14 it is 3DES, for GnuPG 2.1 it is AES-128. The default for gnupg-2.1.18 is AES256
- You can force GnuPG to use AES256 for encryption with
- GPG was developed by Werner Koch and released in 1999 as an alternative to Symantec's software suite of encryption tools. It's available as a free software download and is based on the OpenPGP standards established by the IETF.
- This ensures that PGP is interoperable with Symantec's PGP tools, as well as OpenPGP standards, and can open and unencrypt any PGP and OpenPGP standards file.
- You can use GPG to exchange encrypted messages with anyone using other OpenPGP implementations, including Symantec's PGP.
IS PGP and GPG keys are 100% compatible in all use cases (100% interchangeable)
- Depending on the PGP version , there are known interoperability problems.
- PGP 2.x normally uses IDEA which is not supported by GnuPG as it is patented.
