Other construction methods for hash functions have been proposed to better fit the data.
However, using a larger table and/or a better hash function may be even more effective in those cases.
The random state is the 160-bit output of the hash function.
An attack on the hash function thus should not be able to find a collision with less than about 2 work.
So a 128-bit block cipher can be turned into a 256-bit hash function.
The hash function reads a name and gives back a number.
The search for a "good" hash function has thus become a hot topic.
The two hash functions should be independent and have no correlation to each other.
At the beginning of the call, both users get the same session key by using the hash function.
And the idea is that you want to incorporate a key into the hash function.
