DiceLock 8.0.0.1 for Windows – DiceLockIVDigested cipher architecture configuration selecting CBC Cipher Block Chaining operation mode with AES 256 block cipher, Sha 224 hash digest algorithm and Random Test Suite with Frequency, Block Frequency, Cumulative Sum Forward, Longest Run Of Ones and Runs random number tests, using IncreaseKeyModifier_6_0_0_1 key modifier, PhysicalCryptoRandomStream bit data stream

DiceLockIVDigestedOMCheck is a C++ program to verify that DiceLockIVDigested class implementing one of DiceLock different architectures is working as expected.

DiceLockIVDigested class is the class that implements DiceLock architecture with the following characteristics:
– base encryption cipher/decipher is any symmetric cipher (stream cipher or block cipher operation mode) working with symmetric key, and initialization vector (IV) are needed,
– any hash digest algorithm is used to generate message hash digest from plaintext to be encrypted,
– ciphertext plus ciphered hash digest of plaintext is checked for random number test properties,
– any function that is able to change original symmetric key with new values,
– bit random number tests that can verify that encrypted ciphertext is at random.

Current algorithm classes that can be used with DiceLockIVDigested architecture are:

– as base encryption cipher/decipher:

– hash digest algorithms: Sha 1, Sha 224, Sha 256, Sha 384, Sha 512, Ripemd 128, Ripemd 160, Ripemd 256, Ripemd 320, Md 2, Md 4 and Md5,
– symmetric key changers: IncreaseKeyModifier_6_0_0_1 and DecreaseKeyModifier_6_0_0_1,
– random number tests: Frequency, Block Frequency, Cumulative Sum Forward, Cumulative Sum Reverse, Runs, Longest Run Of Ones, Rank, Universal, Approximate Entropy, Serial, Discrete Fourier Transform tests and random number test Suite with any or all previous enumerated random number tests.

Because of so many alternative encryption/decryption engines can be used, we have split DiceLockIVDigested class tests in two main C++ program tests:
– DiceLockIVDigestedNoOMCheck C++ Source Code program making use of stream ciphers, and
– DiceLockIVDigestedOMCheck C++ Source Code program making use of block cipher operation modes with multiple block ciphers.

In this test we verify DiceLockIVDigestedOMCheck C++ Source Code program making use of block ciphers and block cipher operation modes with the configuration shown below.

While performing internal software quality assurance we have verified that DiceLockIVDigestedOMCheck in debug mode does not generate any memory leaks with any executed option.
Debug mode was run with the corresponding debugger and the C Run-Time Libraries (CRT) debug heap functions as well as with dump memory leak information function that can be obtained executing “_CrtDumpMemoryLeaks” statement before program ends execution.

In this test we have selected this DiceLock configuration:

DiceLock class: DiceLockIVDigested
Encryption block cipher operation mode: CBC Cipher Block Chaining operation mode
Encryption block cipher: AES 256 block cipher
Hash algorithm: Sha 224 hash digest algorithm
Random number test: Frequency
Random number test: Block Frequency
Random number test: Cumulative Sum Forward
Random number test: Longest Run of Ones
Random number test: Runs
All random number test significance level: Alpha = 0.001 (confidence level of 99.9%)
Symmetric key modifier class: IncreaseKeyModifier_6_0_0_1 key modifier
Bit stream class: PhysicalCryptoRandomStream bit data stream

PhysicalCryptoRandomStream class makes use of AWE (Address Windowing Extensions) that uses physical nonpaged memory, so memory is not swapped to hard disk.
In order to use PhysicalCryptoRandomStream class, which works with AWE it requires that “Lock Pages In Memory” Windows security setting policy permission must be granted in “Local Policy Settings” to the account executing the program, and in some versions the program must have “Run this program as an administrator” “Privilege Level” option checked.

With CBC operation mode all three implemented crypto pad systems (ANSI X.923, ISO/IEC 9797-1 and PKCS7) are used. They are selected on a random basis and such election is logged only when a recipher is performed over the text being randomized-encrypted.

Up to length of larger stream tested in bits: 500000


Number of correct streams deciphered: 62500
Number of incorrect streams deciphered: 0
Incorrect deciphered streams = 0 ==> ---OK---

Total encrypted streams reciphered at least once: 269
Maximum number of reciphers performed over one stream being reciphered: 2

Original output log file from DiceLockIVDigestedOMCheck execution:

From log file we can see that all randomized-encrypted text sequences have been correctly deciphered.

While DiceLockIVDigestedOMCheck was executed a log file of reciphered (plaintext sequences being ciphered more than one time in order to get sequences at random) text sequences has been stored.
DiceLockIVDigestedOMCheck reciphers log file using CBC operation mode is composed of rows, and each row shows hexadecimal value for each byte of symmetric key, initialization vector and plaintext, plaintext length in bits, crypto pad system (as numbered enumeration) used and number of reciphers executed with such plaintext and symmetric key.

Reciphers log file:

This output file will allow us to extract statistical information and to verify DiceLock cipher architecture execution between different operating system environments.
