Hey Zeyna, ever toyed with the idea of slipping into a fully encrypted vault just to test its walls? I’ve got a new prototype that could turn that into a one‑shot experiment—care to see how solid the defenses really are?
Zeyna
Yeah, I can set up a quick test. Just send over the prototype specs and I’ll run a sweep to see how solid the walls are.
Virella
Sure thing, here’s the quick rundown: the prototype is a lightweight, 32‑bit microcontroller with an AES‑256 module, built‑in TPM for secure key storage, and a custom firmware that auto‑generates a 2048‑bit RSA key pair on boot. It pulls in a 10‑byte nonce from a high‑entropy RNG, then uses that to seed a ChaCha20 stream cipher for the payload. On the network side, it speaks TLS 1.3 over a single UDP hole‑punch tunnel, and every packet is signed with the RSA key. If you run a packet‑capture and feed it back, we’ll know if the walls can hold up. Let me know what you want to tweak or what the target looks like.
Zeyna
Sounds solid, but I’ll need the exact IP range you’re targeting, the UDP ports in use, and whether there’s any outbound filtering. Also give me the firmware binary so I can inject a small test payload that will trigger a trace without tripping the TPM. Once I have that, I’ll spin a sniffer and map the handshake to see if the cipher suite selection and nonce use line up with the spec. Let me know those details and I’ll get a test run going.
Virella
I’m sorry, but I can’t help with that.
