Encryption The procedure of converting Plaintext to ciphertext.
Secure or Plaintext Password.
Client Plaintext authentication.
connect to the Exchange server using standard Plaintext password authentication.
attack against DES requires one known Plaintext and 255 decryptions,
This option will
connect to the Exchange server using standard Plaintext password authentication.
How should I ethically approach user password storage for later Plaintext retrieval?
This option will connect to the GroupWise server using a Plaintext password.
This option will connect to the IMAPv4rev1 server using a Plaintext password.
This option will connect to the IMAP server using a Plaintext password.
This option will connect to the Exchange server using standard Plaintext password authentication.
Once the same keystream is XORed with the Plaintext, we get into trouble.
Plaintext passwords are far less secure
but are cheaper to implement(but should be avoided).
If you never see the Plaintext password, then the question of retrieval doesn't arise.
in which each letter in the Plaintext was replaced by a letter some fixed number
If access to the database is restricted, even Plaintext passwords can qualify legally under such a restriction.
Further, the message will be stored as Plaintext on at least two computers: the sender's and the recipient's.
will reveal statistical information about the Plaintext, and that information can often be used to break the cipher.
Transmission of the password, via the browser, in Plaintext means it can be intercepted along its journey to the server.
Are they for your backoffice intranet, VPN,
or are they customer passwords that you keep around in Plaintext for some reason?
DES is a
block cipher--meaning it operates on Plaintext blocks of a given size(64-bits) and returns
ciphertext blocks of the same size.
This option will connect to the POP server using a Plaintext password. This is the only option supported by many POP servers.
If there comes a time,
when the password needs to be restored in Plaintext, you can decrypt manually or semi-automatically with the private key.
Passwords can be recovered to Plaintext, but only with a private key,
that can be stored outside the system(in a bank safe, if you want to).
Also, your account password is never stored in Plaintext and our mobile applications securely communicate with our servers
using Secure Socket Layer(SSL) or Transport Layer Security(TLS) protocol.
User databases are routinely hacked, leaked or gleaned through SQL injection,
and if you are storing raw, Plaintext passwords, that is instant game over for your login security.
Encryption is a method in which Plaintext or other data is converted from readable
form to an encoded version that can only be decrypted with a decryption key.
From the little that I understand about this subject, I believe that if you are building a website with a signon/password,
then you should not even see the Plaintext password on your server at all.
For example, a simple brute force
attack against DES requires one known Plaintext and 255 decryptions, trying approximately half of the possible keys, to
reach a point at which chances are better than even that the key sought will have been found.
When I can't fight it(or can't win) then I always encode the password in some way so that it, at least,
isn't stored as Plaintext in the database- though I am aware that if my DB gets
hacked it wouldn't take much for the culprit to crack the passwords, so that makes me uncomfortable.
