En Route to Perfect Secrecy
The essential need-to-know about an OTP cipher: it means higherquality cryptography.
Information security in the digital era revolves around effective cryptography. The essential need-to know about an OTP cipher: it means higher-quality cryptography. Cryptography depends on secure marriages between sturdy, go-to algorithms used for encrypting data and secret keys. The algorithms are tapped widely, so the keys must carry a lot of water – more so as demand soars.
The four critical attributes to an OTP key are:
- Randomness – Genuine, intrinsic randomness – that is, the OTP key contains no discernible repeating patterns.
- Size – A key size at least equal to that of the plaintext it’s protecting.
- Uniqueness – The OTP key is used just one time, to encrypt one item of data, though it may be used multiple times to decrypt it.
- Secret – The key must be kept secret. Like any encryption cipher
