• The Matasano Crypto Challenges (2014)

  Another similar website for people who like this: https://cryptohack.org/ It is like cryptopals, but in a Catch The Flag format. Many challenges on cryptopals do exist on CryptoHack too, but CryptoHack also have some even harder challenges to solve. - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

• How Can I Test My Homebrew Cipher?

  The point is, you're working with a 200-year old manual cipher method. The field of cryptography has thoroughly perforated it and moved past manual ciphers and machine ciphers and onto mathematical ciphers whose strength is in functions whose inverses are astronomically more difficult to compute than the functions themselves, and key generation schemes that ensure that keys are never repeated no matter how many...

• Australian Signals Directorate coin code cracked by 14yo in 'just over an hour'

  These codes are really just silly puzzles, modern cryptography has no weaknesses of the kind these codes have. There are even sites that teach you about bad modern cryptography, like cryptohack [0] but in general the kind of skills you learn there won't be useful either unless you happen to find a piece of software that rolled their own crypto and did something really dumb (which does happen, occasionally, see the... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Have thought of a (hopefully useful) cipher spec. Looking for some suggestions!

  For learning you have to break stuff. There are sites that offer up challenges with intentionally weakened cryptography, which you can break for training. They will typically also have other learning material. Here are some of them: https://mysterytwister.org https://cryptohack.org/. Source: over 1 year ago

• Rolling your own crypto: Everything you need to build AES from scratch

  When cryptopals is mentioned, I've also gotta mention "Cryptohack": https://cryptohack.org/ That's where I've learnt most of my crypto, although it might be more focussed on the breaking than the making part. - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago

• High school student interested in cryptography

  You can (and should) start with Python if you haven't already. After that, you can practice with sites like cryptopals and cryptohack. There you can find the chance to learn the math essential to crypto, like XOR and some number theory. If anything cryptohack has a discord server you can join. And you can find competitions weekly on ctftime. CTFs are a great way to have a path of what to learn while also gamifying... Source: over 2 years ago
