I'm just about to build a simple chat application using One Time Pad.I've already made the algorithm, and to encrypt the messages, I need some sort of key material that is the same on both sides. The distribution of the key material is supposed to happen with physical contact (e.g. USB dongle). So I would like to make some very large random key files, that the two clients can use to communicate. So my questions are: Vampire weekend full discography torrent.
- I need a very secure random number/string generator, do you know any good ones that I can use in C#?
- And how do I, when I use such big files, avoid to load the whole file into memory, as I plan to read a chunk of the key material (e.g. 1 MB), and remove it from the file afterwards when read, so the same key won't be used twice.
One Time Pad 2.3 lets you easily encrypt messages and send them to your friends.One Time Pad is an easy to use personal encryption program using the elegant one time pad encryption technique. Great for students of cryptology or those who want to. C++ Program to Implement the One Time Pad Algorithm Posted on November 25, 2014 by dharmendra This C++ program encodes any message using the technique of one time pad cipher technique. The one-time-pad is the optimum cryptosystem with theoretically perfect secrecy. The one-time-pad is one of the most practical methods of encryption where one or both parties must do all work by hand, without the aid of a computer. One-time Pad Cipher. The one-time pad is a long sequence of random letters. These letters are combined with the plaintext message to produce the ciphertext. To decipher the message, a person must have a copy of the one-time pad to reverse the process. A one-time pad should be used only once (hence the name) and then destroyed. The one-time pad (OTP) is an encryption algorithm that provides perfect secrecy, provided it is implemented properly. The pad, which is essentially a key that is the same length as the message, must be used only once (hence the name), kept secret, and, the hard part, generated using some truly.

I Should probably start with this: I assume this is a for fun or for exercise project - not an attempt to create something truly secure.
One Time Pad Code
- As owlstead says: Use RNGCryptoServiceProvider.
- Removing the used key material from the file is much easier if you use it in reverse. If you need to encrypt 1024 bytes, read the last 1024 bytes from the file and truncate it. Simplified:

You are trying to solve an issue that has already been solved: using AES is almost certainly as safe as using the One Time Pad. In that case your key becomes 16 bytes (although you will need a NONCE or IV depending on the mode).
- You need to use a secure random number generator RNGCryptoServiceProvider.
- Read the file into memory using MemoryMappedFile.
Just (atomically) store the offset in the file instead. https://evsxrc.weebly.com/blog/wii-system-update-42u. E.g. use the first 8 bytes in the same file to store an ulong type, so you can sync when needed. You may write zero's in the file in addition to that for the bytes used if you really want. Note that e.g. with SSD's you may not actually overwrite the physical data.

What you have designed is almost certainly not a One Time Pad. The generation of large quantities of truly random bytes is a far from trivial task. You should really be spending a few thousand dollars on a hardware card if you really must go down that route. Even the crypto quality C# RNG is not up to generating that sort of volume of true random data. It can generate a short key securely enough, but does not have enough entropy input to generate large quantities of true random data. As soon as the entropy runs out, its output reverts to pseudo-random and you no longer have a One Time Pad.
As @owlstead said, use AES, in either CBC or CTR mode. That is secure, easily available and is not designed by an amateur.
