    SCIMP provides strong encryption, perfect forward secrecy and message authentication.Further, we have incorporated many NIST-approved methods and protocols into its design including:

    • Elliptic Curve Diffie–Hellman (ECDH), NIST 800-56A
    • Counter with CBC-MAC (CCM), NIST 800-38C
    • Key Derivation, NIST 800-108
    • Secure Hash Standard, FIPS 180-4
    • Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), FIPS 197

    Then when he asked why... no answer. I originally checked this post out thinking there might be value, and I was wrong.

  8. Re:Right vector. Incorrect magnitude. on Ask Slashdot: Can Creating New Online Accounts Reduce Privacy Risks? · · Score: 1

    I once did a painting in art school, well it was 900 small paintings that made up one large painting. While I was working on this painting Peter Saul gave a lecture at the school. When he finished I approached him and asked for his autograph on one of my little canvases. When I hung the 900 paintings in the final show I create reproductions of that one canvas for fear that the original would be stolen. I hung all five so that no one would know which painting was the original.

    The real solution... I never hung the original.

    I don't think that a fake name used to create an account prevents them from knowing who you are. If your account acts like a 45 year male living in his parent's basement and your IP address results in your parent's house, I think you've been made.
