Data Tastes Better Seasoned: Introducing the ASH Family of Hashing Algorithms
Abstract
Description
Over the recent months it has become clear that the current generation of cryptographic hashing algorithms are insufficient to meet future needs. The ASH family of algorithms provides modifications to the existing SHA-2 family. These modifications are designed with two main goals: 1) Providing increased collision resistance. 2) Increasing mitigation of security risks post-collision. The unique public/private sections and salt/pepper design elements provide increased flexibility for a broad range of applications. The ASH family is a new generation of cryptographic hashing algorithms.
