  2. Salt (cryptography) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salt_(cryptography)

    The salt and hash are then stored in the database. To later test if a password a user enters is correct, the same process can be performed on it (appending that user's salt to the password and calculating the resultant hash): if the result does not match the stored hash, it could not have been the correct password that was entered.

  3. 64-bit computing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/64-bit_computing

    Mac OS X 10.4 "Tiger" and Mac OS X 10.5 "Leopard" had only a 32-bit kernel, but they can run 64-bit user-mode code on 64-bit processors. Mac OS X 10.6 "Snow Leopard" had both 32- and 64-bit kernels, and, on most Macs, used the 32-bit kernel even on 64-bit processors. This allowed those Macs to support 64-bit processes while still supporting 32 ...

  4. Advanced Encryption Standard - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Encryption_Standard

    10 rounds for 128-bit keys. 12 rounds for 192-bit keys. 14 rounds for 256-bit keys. Each round consists of several processing steps, including one that depends on the encryption key itself. A set of reverse rounds are applied to transform ciphertext back into the original plaintext using the same encryption key.

  5. PBKDF2 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PBKDF2

    The first iteration of PRF uses Password as the PRF key and Salt concatenated with i encoded as a big-endian 32-bit integer as the input. (Note that i is a 1-based index.) Subsequent iterations of PRF use Password as the PRF key and the output of the previous PRF computation as the input: F(Password, Salt, c, i) = U 1 ^ U 2 ^ ⋯ ^ U c. where:

  6. RC4 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RC4

    RC4 was designed by Ron Rivest of RSA Security in 1987. While it is officially termed "Rivest Cipher 4", the RC acronym is alternatively understood to stand for "Ron's Code" [9] (see also RC2, RC5 and RC6).

  7. Checksum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Checksum

    The effect of a checksum algorithm that yields an n-bit checksum is to map each m-bit message to a corner of a larger hypercube, with dimension m + n. The 2 m + n corners of this hypercube represent all possible received messages. The valid received messages (those that have the correct checksum) comprise a smaller set, with only 2 m corners.

  8. Computer network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_network

    A computer network is a set of computers sharing resources located on or provided by network nodes.Computers use common communication protocols over digital interconnections to communicate with each other.

  9. PostgreSQL - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PostgreSQL

    PostgreSQL can be expected to work on any of the following instruction set architectures (and operating systems): 64-bit x86-64 and 32-bit x86 on Windows and other operating systems; these are supported on other than Windows: 64-bit ARM [94] and the older 32-bit ARM, including older such as ARMv6 in Raspberry Pi [95]), RISC-V, z/Architecture, S ...
