Minden szoftveralkalmazásnak szüksége van egy felhasználónévre és jelszóra az érvényes felhasználó hitelesítéséhez. A felhasználónév bármi lehet, például egy e-mail-azonosító, vagy csak karakterek kombinációja. A jelszó létrehozásakor azonban nagyon óvatosnak kell lennie. Mert bárki, aki érvényes hitelesítő adatokkal rendelkezik, beléphet a rendszerbe és hozzáférhet az információkhoz.

Jelszó titkosítása szükséges

Amikor a felhasználó beállítja a jelszavát, az egyszerű szövegként tárolódik az adatbázisban. A sima szöveg tárolása az adatbázisban egyáltalán nem biztonságos. A hackerek feltörhetik a rendszert, és ellophatják a jelszavakat az adatbázisból.

A felhasználó jelszavának biztonsága érdekében azt különböző titkosítási technikákkal titkosítják. Különféle titkosítási technikák alkalmazásával a sima szöveges jelszó titkosított formában kerül tárolásra az adatbázisban. Számos módszer használható a jelszó titkosítására. De a hash az egyik legnépszerűbb titkosítási technika.

Java Secure Hashing Techniques

A titkosított hash értéket bizonyos algoritmusok segítségével állítják elő a felhasználó által megadott egyszerű szöveges jelszóban. A Java programozás számos kivonatolási technikát támogat a jelszó titkosítása érdekében.

MD5 kivonatolási technika

Az MD5 (Message Digest) egy nagyon népszerű kivonatoló algoritmus. Ez egy kriptográfiai hash függvény, amely 128 bites hash értéket generál. Ez az algoritmus a Java programozás java.security csomagjában van definiálva.

A fenti kód a példányt használja Üzenet feldolgozása osztály, amelyhez hash-t generál SHA512 . Az SHA512 egy bájttömböt ad vissza, amelyet olvasható hexadecimális formátummá kell konvertálni. És végül megjelenik a titkosított hash értéke.

Jelszó alapú titkosítás Salt and Base64 használatával:

A jelszó alapú titkosítási technika egyszerű szöveges jelszavakat és sóértékeket használ a hash érték létrehozásához. Ezután a hash értéket Base64 karakterláncként kódolják. A sóérték a java.util csomag Random osztályának egy példányával előállított véletlenszerű adatokat tartalmaz.

A következő program a jelszó titkosítását mutatja be salt és base64 használatával.

A fenti kódban két osztály van definiálva.

1. Osztály PassEncTech4 tartalmazza a program illesztőprogram kódját. A megadott sima szöveges jelszó használatával sóértéket és titkosított jelszót generál. És ellenőrzi őket a által visszaadott érték használatával verifyUserPassword()
2. Az osztályban PassBasedEnc, 4 módszer van meghatározva. Az első módszer az getSaltvalue() amely segítségével generálja az értéket véletlen osztályból util csomag. Akkor hash() definiálva van, amelynek visszatérési típusú bájttömbje van. A generSecurePassword() egyszerű szöveges jelszót és sóértéket használ a hash() módszer. Végül pedig a két jelszót a verifyUserPassword() módszer.

A hash feltörésének technikái

A hash érték hajlamos a támadók különféle támadásaira. Néhányat az alábbiakban említünk,

Brute force támadás:A brute force támadás során a támadó jelszavak vagy jelszavak több kombinációját küldi el abban a reményben, hogy az egyik kombináció megegyezik, és beléphet a rendszerbe.
Az ilyen típusú támadások elkerülése érdekében a jelszónak ábécék, számok és szimbólumok kombinációját kell használnia. Egy másik módszer az, hogy beállít egy fix számú érvénytelen kísérletet, és ezután emberi ellenőrzést kér, mint a captcha.Szótári támadás:A szótári támadás a brute force attack továbbfejlesztett változata. Ennél a technikánál a titkosított titkosítást többféle lehetőség segítségével próbálják megfejteni, például a szótár szavait.Szivárvány asztalok:A technika egy szivárványtáblázatról szól, amely egy előre kiszámított tábla a kriptográfiai hash függvények megfordítására. A szivárványtáblák a sima szöveges jelszavak felfedezésére szolgálnak bizonyos hosszúságig és korlátozott számú karakterig. Tehát oldalhurkos táblát használ a tárhasználat csökkentése és a támadás sebességének növelése érdekében.
