What this book is:

This book guides the user through an understanding of why large-scale password leaks happen, what methods exist to prevent them, and how cryptography can be used to eliminate large-scale password leaks entirely.

This new cryptography is called OPAQUE, and it uses zero- knowledge proofs to create a secure key exchange without ever sending the user's password across the Internet.

The second half of the book explains how to implement the OPAQUE protocol line-by-line using TypeScript.

What You Will Learn:

  • Why large-scale password leaks happen and how to prevent them
  • How to use key derivation functions and encrypted lockboxes
  • How elliptic curve cryptography works
  • How to implement the OPAQUE key exchange protocol
  • How to implement OPAQUE in a REST API
  • Who This Book Is For:

    This book is intended for programmers, engineers, and technology enthusiasts to better understand how to use zero- knowledge proofs, lockboxes and key derivations to eliminate password leaks.
