Goal:
Participate in this virtual laboratory where you will simulate the secure transmission of messages from the point of origin to the receiver, guaranteeing the integrity of the information without interception.
At the end of this experiment, you will be able to:
Recognize the hash algorithms used to verify the integrity of messages.
Identify the basic functioning of securely sending encrypted messages from origin to destination.
Implement hash algorithm guidelines to ensure data integrity.
Where to Use These Concepts:
Hash algorithms are fundamental for verifying the integrity of messages, files on networks and for recovering passwords in databases. Learn how to transform a string of data into a fixed-length character set to protect sensitive information.
The Experiment:
Simulate the transmission of messages between sender and receiver without risk of interception. Use a hash algorithm to summarize the information at the sender and verify its integrity at the receiver, using the same algorithm.
Security:
This experiment is safe as long as your computer or browser is free of malicious software. It is recommended to use an updated antivirus to ensure data security during practice.
Scenario:
Perform this experiment on any computer with an up-to-date web browser, exploring the basics of encryption and data security.
