Our motivation for this project is based on the idea that reducing a system to its minimum set of components makes it easier to build, test, and maintain cloud data management systems. This approach requires less engineering effort, reduces the cost of software development, and lowers the risk of errors by minimizing the number of components that need to be managed. https://dasya.itu.dk/for-students/proposals/archive/hashing/ Fri, 21 Aug 2020 00:00:00 +0000 https://dasya.itu.dk/for-students/proposals/archive/hashing/ Hash-based authentication is an effective way of protecting passwords in software systems. Hashing obscures the original passwords, such that it cannot be recovered in case of a database breach. However, as demonstrated by our paper titled Hash-Based Authentication Revisited in the Age of High-Performance Computers, the practical security depends on which hashing algorithm is used as well as the complexity of the passwords. The main goal of this project is to do a study on which hashing-algorithms are the standard in current software systems as well as testing the cracking capacity of these hashing-algorithms on high-performance computers and home computers.
