A repo to host all things cybersec!

• Fork the repository by clicking the fork button on top right corner of the page
• Clone the target repository. To clone, click on the clone button and copy the https address. Then run

git clone [HTTPS-ADDRESS]

• Go to the cloned directory by running

cd [NAME-OF-REPO]

• Create a new branch. Use

 git checkout -b [YOUR-BRANCH-NAME]

• Make your changes to the code. Add changes to your branch by using

git add .

• Commit the chanes by executing

git commit -m "your msg"

• Push to remote. To do this, run

git push origin [YOUR-BRANCH-NAME]

• Create a pull request. Go to the target repository and click on the "Compare & pull request" button. Make sure your PR description mentions which issues you're solving.
• Wait for your request to be accepted.

• Avoid pull requests that :
  • are automated or scripted
  • that are plagarized from someone else's branch
• Do not spam
• Project maintainer's decision on validity of PR is final.

This project is intended to introduce people to basic implementations of ciphers and encryption schemes used throughout history. By creating small scale implementations, we hope that people will learn the working of these algorithms and understand the math and computer science behind them.

We have used the Python programming language as it is beginner friendly and can be easily picked up by first timers.

The collection of schemes we have are:

• Historical Ciphers

  • Ceaser Cipher
  • Hill Cipher
  • Vigenere Cipher
  • Skip Cipher
  • Playfair Cipher
  • Book Cipher
  • Rail Fence Cipher
  • One time pad

• Symmetric Ciphers

  • DES
  • AES
  • blowfish
  • twofish

• PRNGS and stream ciphers

  • RC4
  • salsa20 and chacha
  • Linear Feedback shift registers

• Asymmetric Ciphers

  • RSA
  • ElGamal

• Digital Signatures

  • ECDSA
  • RSADSA

• Hashing Algorithms

  • SHA (0, 1, 2, 3)
  • MD5

We also have a slightly harder cybersecurity application based folder in this project, which is for people with intermediate and advanced skill levels

The projects include:

• An NMap clone written in Python
• A Burp Intruder clone written in Python

Lets get started!

git remote add
git fetch
git merge
