Safe Cryptography Algorithms

In this thesis there is description of cryptographic algorithms. Their properties are being compared, weak and strong points and right usage of particular algorithms. The main topics are safeness of algorithms, their bugs and improvements and difficulty of breaching. As a complement to ciphers there are also hash functions taken in consideration. There are also showed the most common methods of cryptanalysis. As a practical application of described algorithms I analyze systems for secure data transfer SSH and SSL/TLS and demonstrate an attack on SSL connection. In conclusion there is recommendation of safe algorithms for further usage and safe parameters of SSH and SSL/TLS connections
