Padding (Cryptography)

Bol

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. In cryptography, padding refers to a number of distinct practices. Official messages often start and end in predictable ways: My dear ambassador, Weather report, Sincerely yours, etc. The primary use of padding with classical ciphers is to prevent the cryptanalyst from using that predictability to find cribs that aid in breaking the encryption. Random length padding also prevents an attacker from knowing the exact length of the plaintext message.
