cryptography

To detect weak encryption algorithms like MD5 or DES in your codebase, you can perform an automated cryptography review that flags insecure ciphers and ECB mode, mapping findings to ASVS rules and suggesting secure alternatives like SHA-256 and AES-256-GCM.

The best way to implement secure password hashing and digital signatures is to use ASVS-aligned recommendations like Argon2, bcrypt, or PBKDF2 for passwords, and RSA-PSS or ECDSA with proper padding for signatures, ensuring robust cryptographic security.

To fix insecure random number generation and improper key management, replace weak RNG with CSPRNGs and adopt secure key generation, storage, and rotation patterns using KMS and envelope encryption to satisfy ASVS key management requirements.

Yes, this cryptography guidance explicitly aligns with ASVS, OWASP, and NIST standards. It maps detected cryptographic weaknesses in encryption, RNG, and digital signatures to these established security frameworks while providing concrete code examples for fixes.

Yes, you can review a web service credential flow to identify weak key handling and RNG. The process analyzes the codebase, detects insecure cryptographic implementations, and proposes secure replacements with sample code mapped to ASVS requirements.

You should not use ECB mode for encryption because it is a weak cryptographic pattern that fails to hide data patterns. ASVS-aligned cryptography guidance flags ECB usage as a weakness and recommends adopting secure modes like AES-256-GCM instead.
