What direct cryptographic attack do you know that works on a one time pad? (Aslong as the randomness used to build it is real, it is implemented properly and not re-used etc)
- kharms 8y agoYou don't need to break the code, just notice a pattern of use/behavior.
- wowzerz 8y agoUser error, for one. People get sloppy and reuse a not-so-one-time-pad. That alone compromises secrets with frequency analysis.
- secfirstmd 8y agoYeah that's obvious and telling me what I already know and pointed out. I thought there was some other cryptographic issue.
- wowzerz 8y agoWell, what's the point in asking, if you already know everything? I wonder.
