How do you know that the AES instruction set on your device's processor doesn't include a backdoor? Sure, the algorithm is public, but how do you know how it was implemented?
- upofadown 4y agoAES starts with 16 bytes and then encrypts it to 16 bytes. So there is no good place to hide extra data. Even a single bit that did not meet the AES spec for the key in use would produce complete garbage at decryption. So attempts to leak the key would at least leave a mark.
