Step 2. One-way secret keys must be generated for a router to encrypt SSH traffic. The key is what is actually used to encrypt and decrypt data. To create an encryption key, use the crypto key generate rsa general-keys modulus modulus-size command in global configuration mode. The specific meaning of the various parts of this command are complex and out of scope for this course, but for now, just note that the modulus determines the size of the key and can be configured from 360 bits to 2048 bits. The larger the modulus, the more secure the key, but the longer it takes to encrypt and decrypt information. The minimum recommended modulus length is 1024 bits.
OnAugust 14, 2012, Microsoftwillissue a critical non-security update(KB 2661254) for Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2003 R2, Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, Windows 7, and Windows Server 2008 R2. The update will block the use of cryptographic keys that are less than 1024 bits. This update was first announced in the blog titled RSA keys under 1024 bits are blocked. This blog post is a reminder that the update is coming and provides a bit more information on how to control the updatewhen deployed.

If only the root certificate in a chain is 512 bits, but all the rest of the keys below are 1024 bits or higher, you could run the following command to indicate that you will allow a 512 bit root certificate, but want to block all keys less than 1024 bits below the root certificate.
If you have Authenticode signatures that were signed with keys less than 1024 bits prior to January 1, 2010, 12:00:00 AM UTC/GMT, they will not be blocked by default. If necessary, you can use the WeakRsaPubKeyTime setting to allow for the configuration of the date and time for which to consider older signatures valid. If you have reason to set a different date and time for the WeakRsaPubKeyTime, you can use certutil to set a different date and time. For example, if you wanted to set the date to August 29, 2010, you could use the following command:
Public key based cryptographic algorithms strength is determined based on the time taken to derive the private key using brute force methods. The algorithm is deemed to be strong enough when the time required to derive private key is prohibitive enough using the computing power at disposal. The threat landscape continues to evolve. As such, we are further hardening our criteria for the RSA algorithm with key length less than 1024 bits.To further reduce the risk of unauthorized exposure of sensitive information, Microsoft has created a software update that will be released in August 2012 for the following operating systems: Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2003 R2, Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, Windows 7, and Windows Server 2008 R2. This update will block the use of cryptographic keys that are less than 1024 bits.Some issues that you may encounter after applying this update may include:
To prepare for this update, you should determine whether your organization is currently using keys less than 1024 bits. If it is, then you should take steps to update your cryptographic settings such that keys under 1024 bits are not in use.
The Crypto API builds a certificate trust chain and validates that chain using time validity, certificate revocation, and certificate policies (such as intended purposes). Once the update is applied, during chain building there is an additional check to ensure that no certificate in the chain has key length less than 1024 bits). Chain building is done using the CertGetCertificateChain function. If a key chain building issue is encountered with such a certificate, then the errors produced are as follows:Event 11, CAPI2
When working with V2 certificate templates, if you do not specify the key size, then the default CSP with default key size will be used to generate the key. If the default CSP is one of the above 3 CSPs on the client box, then the generated key will be under 1024 bits. The CA which has been updated with weak key protection will reject such request. As a result, we recommended that you do the following:
If you run this query, templates that utilize keys that are smaller than 1024 bits will be shown with their key size. The following figure illustrates that two of the built-in templates SmartcardLogon and SmartcardUser templates have default key lengths that have minimum key sizes of 512 bits. You may also discover other templates that were duplicated with minimum key sizes of less than 1024 bits.
For each template you discover that allow less than 1024 bit keys, you should determine whether it is available to issue certificates as shown in the Certificate Templates section of the Certification Authority console.
You can utilize CAPI2 logging starting with Windows Vista or Windows Server 2008 computers to help identify keys under 1024 bits. You can then allow the computers to perform their normal operations and check the log after a period of time to help identify such keys. You can then use that information to track down the sources of the certificates and make the necessary updates.
Once you've collected the log, you can use the following filter to reduce the number of entries that you have to search through in order to find certificate operations with keys under 1024 bits. The following filter looks for keys of 512 bits.
Ingolfur Arnar Stangeland came up with a certutil command to show whether a CA has issued RSA certificates with keys less than 1024 bits. He published the instructions in his blog post "How to identify if your ADCS has issued any certificates with public keys
6.5.8 is around 13 years old. Since then, there have been a number of improvements in algorithms and hashes. If the sender used any of these newer, more secure, improvements in the encryption, your PGP version would not be able to do the decryption. If the sender wants to make this compatible with you, he/she could accomplish this with using a v3 RSA key, which current versions can still use, but cannot generate. Another key that would be compatible would be a DH/DSS key allowing only SHA1 for the hash, key size not larger than 4096/1024, and key supporting only IDEA, 3DES, and/of CAST . These suggestions will likely take care of the problem if the sending person is either signing the encryption or also encrypting to their key.
Furthermore, while ECDSA signature creation is faster than RSA,signature validation is actually much slower. Roland van Rijswijk-Deijet al. showed that, even with the ECDSA optimizations that wecontributed to OpenSSL, ECDSA is still 6.6 times slower than 1024-bitRSA (which is the most common algorithm used for zone-signing keys).This is a serious problem, because overloading DNS resolvers couldpotentially slow down the entire Internet.
The port attribute is the TCP/IPport number on which Tomcat will listen for secure connections. You canchange this to any port number you wish (such as to the default port forhttps communications, which is 443). However, special setup(outside the scope of this document) is necessary to run Tomcat on portnumbers lower than 1024 on many operating systems.
If you are using the APR/native connector or the JSSE OpenSSL implementation, it will determine the strength of ephemeral DH keys from the key size of your RSA certificate. For example a 2048 bit RSA key will result in using a 2048 bit prime for the DH keys. Unfortunately Java 6 only supports 768 bit and Java 7 only supports 1024 bit. So if your certificate has a stronger key, old Java clients might produce such handshake failures. As a mitigation you can either try to force them to use another cipher by configuring an appropriate SSLCipherSuite and activate SSLHonorCipherOrder, or embed weak DH params in your certificate file. The latter approach is not recommended because it weakens the SSL security (logjam attack).
Abstract:As wireless sensor networks (WSNs) become more widespread, potential attacks against them also increase and applying cryptography becomes inevitable to make secure WSN nodes. WSN nodes typically contain only a constrained microcontroller, such as MSP430, Atmega, etc., and running public key cryptography on these constrained devices is considered a challenge. Since WSN nodes are spread around in the field, the distribution of the shared private key, which is used in a symmetric key cryptographic algorithm for securing communications, is a problem. Thus, it is necessary to use public key cryptography to effectively solve the key distribution problem. The RSA cryptosystem, which requires at least a 1024-bit key, is the most widely used public key cryptographic algorithm. However, its large key size is considered a drawback for resource constrained microcontrollers. On the other hand, RSA allows for extremely fast digital signature generation which may make it desirable in applications where messages transmitted by sensor nodes need to be authenticated. Furthermore, for compatibility with an existing communication infrastructure, it may be desirable to adopt RSA in a WSN setting. With this work, we show that, in spite of its long key size, RSA is applicable for wireless sensor networks when optimized arithmetic, low-level coding and some acceleration algorithms are used. We pick three versions of the MSP430 microcontroller, which is used widely on wireless sensor network nodes, and implement 1024-bit RSA on them. Our implementation achieves 1024-bit RSA encryption and decryption operations on MSP430 in only 0.047 s and 1.14 s, respectively. In order to achieve these timings, we utilize several acceleration techniques, such as the subtractive Karatsuba-Ofman, Montgomery multiplication, operand scanning, Chinese remainder theorem and sliding window method. To the best of our knowledge, our timings for 1024-bit RSA encryption and decryption operations are the fastest reported timings in the literature for the MSP430 microcontroller.Keywords: wireless sensor networks; RSA; subtractive Karatsuba-Ofman; montgomery multiplication; Chinese remainder theorem 2ff7e9595c
