Crypto-Precision: Testing Tool for Hash Function

  • Conference paper
Recent Trends in Computer Networks and Distributed Systems Security (SNDS 2012)

Part of the book series: Communications in Computer and Information Science ((CCIS,volume 335))

Abstract

In this paper, we present a new generic cryptographic hash function testing tool called Crypto-Precision. It is designed to be adaptable to various Cryptographic Hash Function algorithms and different hash function constructions. We have tested three hash functions; SHA-1, FORK-256 and NewFORK-256.The current version of the tool dynamically generates code for a Hash Function and then tests that Hash Function on the basis of its speed, collision resistance and randomness.
