Cryptographic Security Guidelines & Post-Quantum Readiness.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

# Cryptographic Security Guidelines & Post-Quantum Readiness

## 1. Banned (Insecure) Algorithms

The following algorithms are known to be broken or fundamentally insecure. NEVER generate or use code with these algorithms.

*   Hash: `MD2`, `MD4`, `MD5`, `SHA-0`
*   Symmetric: `RC2`, `RC4`, `Blowfish`, `DES`, `3DES`
*   Key Exchange: Static RSA, Anonymous Diffie-Hellman
*   Classical: `Vigenère`

Reason: These are cryptographically broken and vulnerable to collision or man-in-the-middle attacks.

## 2. Deprecated (Legacy/Weak) Algorithms

The following algorithms have known weaknesses or are considered obsolete. Avoid in new designs and prioritize migration.

*   Hash: `SHA-1`
*   Symmetric: `AES-CBC`, `AES-ECB`
*   Signature: RSA with `PKCS#1 v1.5` padding
*   Key Exchange: DHE with weak/common primes

## 3. Recommended & Post-Quantum Ready Algorithms

Implement these modern, secure algorithms to ensure resistance against both classical and quantum threats.

### Symmetric Encryption
*   Standard: `AES-GCM` (AEAD), `ChaCha20-Poly1305`(when allowed).

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add santosomar/ai-agents-for-cybersecurity/.cursor/rules/codeguard-1-crypto-algorithms.mdc@sha256:74a806a85b2cd53b

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.5.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
