SHA-256

A new change to Miranda came from the Denver/Boulder Cybersecurity Meetup to use SHA256 instead of SHA1 to determine if a file has changed.

Changing the Java and SSL Presentation to CLCL

Yesterday I decided to create a new library for crypto tasks: the com ltsllc crypto library or clcl.  I now need to change my presentation to incorporate clcl.

I decided to keep the same basic structure; just make clcl more of a solution to Java and SSL's problems.  The basic tasks remain the same:

• Create a key pair
• Create a CA
• Create a CSR
• Create a certificate

To this I have added various file-oriented tasks:

• Load/store a key pair in a Java key store
• Load/store a key pair in a PEM file
• Load/store a certificate in a Java key store
• Load/store a certificate in a PEM file

PEM files have an additional challenge in that they may be password protected.

Then I have to document each class.  Then I have to created tests for each class. Finally, I need to create wiki entries for the library.

I've completed the first set of tasks, so it looks like I have my work cut out for me.
