MD5Crk
The aim of MD5CRK is to raise awareness in the IT industry that MD5 is not secure for many applications. We aim to disprove one of the fundamental requirements of a secure message digest: No two inputs can be found which produce the same digest - this is also known as a collision. In cryptography, there can be no doubt in an algorithm's security. Demonstrating a counter-example to a required property in an algorithm effectively renders the algorithm insecure.
