"SequenceHash: multihashing for the rest of us"
- Multihashing is one of those cryptographic tasks that’s easy not to think about too much.
- This is unfortunate, because multihashing is a common stumbling point when cryptographers try to use hashes.
- As part of our goal to “fix software, not bugs,” Trail of Bits is introducing SequenceHash and its sister function SequenceMAC, a pair of related hash constructions that bring secure multihashing to developers using hash functions other than Keccak.
