@ -84,6 +84,7 @@ How does *GC* transform a password to a key?
First up, we have to establish what requirements this transformation must fulfill: First up, we have to establish what requirements this transformation must fulfill:
* A full key. Not just *len(passwd)\*8* bits and the rest zero-padded. * A full key. Not just *len(passwd)\*8* bits and the rest zero-padded.
* Even if *len(passwd)\*8 > KEY_SIZE*, every bit of the password should affect the key * Even if *len(passwd)\*8 > KEY_SIZE*, every bit of the password should affect the key
* Diffusion
* Ideally good collision resistance * Ideally good collision resistance
Let's be honest, I'm not a cryptographer, I have no idea how collision resistant this is. Let's be honest, I'm not a cryptographer, I have no idea how collision resistant this is.
