Rsyncrypto is a modified encryption scheme. It is based on industry standard
|
||
|
|
AES for symmetric encryption, as well as RSA for having different keys for
|
||
|
|
each file while allowing a single key to decrypt all files. It even uses an
|
||
|
|
encryption mode that is based on CBC.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Rsyncrypto does, however, do one thing differently. It changes the encryption
|
||
|
|
schema from plain CBC to a slightly modified version. This modification ensures
|
||
|
|
that two almost identical files, such as the same file before an after a
|
||
|
|
change, when encrypted using rsyncrypto and the same key, will produce almost
|
||
|
|
identical encrypted files. This means that both objectives can be achieved
|
||
|
|
simultaneously.
