Checksum/Hash

A checksum; can be used to prevent/identify accidental changes. A hash; maps some data to another, often used for hash tables, or to speed up comparison.

Secure Hash

Cryptography hash functions that have the properties:

• Finding an input string that matches a hash value (pre-image) is hard
• Finding a pair of messages that generate the same hash value (collision) is hard

Key Derivation Function (KDF)

A cryptographic algorithm that derives one or more secret keys from a secret value. Can be used to stretch keys (make them longer), or obtain a key in a particular format (eg making a key a fixed length)

• HKDF
• PBKDF2 pbkdf2_hmac_sha1, pbkdf2_hmac_sha256, pbkdf2_hmac_sha512

Message Authentication Code (MAC)

Also known as an authentication tag, a short piece of information to authenticate a message. Protect integrity, and authenticity.

Name	Tag Size
CMAC	16 (AES)
HMAC	Depends on hash (Blake, Blake2, cShake, Keccak, MD4, MD5, RipeMD, Sha1, Sha2, Sha3, Shake, Whirlpool)

• Structured logging
• Normalize stack entries, and stack traces across engines, with colors
