What problem does it solve?
Cryptographic weaknesses in applications can lead to data breaches and credential compromises. This skill helps security engineers perform comprehensive cryptographic analysis across codebases, focusing on JWT concerns, password hashing, encryption practices, and key management across major languages.
Core Features & Use Cases
- JWT analysis across languages to detect algorithm confusion, weak secrets, and missing validations.
- Hashing and password policy assessment across languages to ensure salts, cost factors, and resistance to common attacks.
- Encryption review and key-management analysis to identify weak ciphers, insecure modes, improper IV/nonce handling, and hardcoded keys.
- Phase-based execution guidance for scalable security assessments in CI/CD pipelines and code reviews.
Quick Start
Run the crypto specialist on a repository to identify JWT misconfigurations, hashing weaknesses, and misused encryption practices.
