Encryption

ASF currently supports the following encryption mechanisms:

값	이름
0	평문(PlainText)
1	고급 암호화 표준(AES)
2	ProtectedDataForCurrentUser

The exact description and comparison of them is available below.

In order to generate encrypted password, e.g. for SteamPassword usage, you should execute encrypt command with the appropriate encryption that you chose and your original plain-text password. Afterwards, put the encrypted string that you've got as SteamPassword bot config property, and finally change PasswordFormat to the one that matches your chosen encryption method.

평문(PlainText)

This is the most simple and insecure way of storing a password, defined as ECryptoMethod of 0. ASF expects the string to be a plain text - a password in its direct form. It's the easiest one to use, and 100% compatible with all the setups, therefore it's a default way of storing secrets, totally insecure for safe storage.

고급 암호화 표준(AES)

Considered secure by today standards, AES way of storing the password is defined as ECryptoMethod of 1. ASF expects the string to be a base64-encoded sequence of characters resulting in AES-encrypted byte array after translation, which then should be decrypted using included initialization vector and ASF encryption key.

위의 방식은 공격자가 암호의 복호화와 암호화에 사용되는 내장된 ASF 암호화 키를 알지 못하는 한 보안을 보장합니다. ASF는 --cryptkey 명령줄 인자 를 통해 최대한의 보안을 위해서 특정 키의 사용을 허락합니다. 이를 생략하기로 했다면 ASF는 알려져있고 어플리케이션에 하드코딩된 자체 키를 사용할 것입니다. 이는 누구나 ASF 암호화를 뒤집어서 복호화된 암호를 얻을 수 있다는 뜻힙니다. 여전히 약간 노력이 필요하고 하기 쉽지는 않지만, 가능한 일입니다. 이것이 AES 암호화는 비밀리에 보관하고 있는 자신만의 --cryptkey를 사용해야 하는 이유입니다. ASF에서 사용하는 AES 방법은 만족스러운 보안성을 제공하고 평문(PlainText)의 단순함과 ProtectedDataForCurrentUser의 복잡성 간의 균형점입니다. 하지만 사용자의 --cryptkey와 함께 사용하는 것을 강력하게 권장합니다. If used properly, guarantees decent security for safe storage.

ProtectedDataForCurrentUser

Currently the most secure way of encrypting the password that ASF offers, and much safer than AES method explained above, is defined as ECryptoMethod of 2. 이 방법의 주된 장점은 동시에 주된 단점입니다. AES 등 암호화 키를 사용하는 대신 현재 로그인 된 사용자의 로그인 자격을 이용하여 데이터를 암호화합니다. 즉, 오직 암호화된 기기에서만, 또한 오직 암호화한 사용자만 데이터를 복호화할 수 있습니다. This ensures that even if you send your entire Bot.json with encrypted SteamPassword using this method to somebody else, he will not be able to decrypt the password without direct access to your PC. This is excellent security measure, but at the same time has a major disadvantage of being least compatible, as the password encrypted using this method will be incompatible with any other user as well as machine - including your own if you decide to e.g. reinstall your operating system. Still, it's one of the best methods of storing passwords, and if you're worried about security of PlainText, and don't want to put password each time, then this is your best bet as long as you don't have to access your configs from any other machine than your own.

Please note that this option is available only for machines running Windows OS as of now.

권장사항

호환성이 문제되지 않고, ProtectedDataForCurrentUser 방법의 동작 방법이 괜찮다면 ASF에서 암호를 저장하는 권장 옵션입니다. 이는 최고의 보안을 제공합니다. AES 방법은 원하는 어느 기기에서나 환경설정을 사용하길 원하는 사람들에게 좋은 선택입니다. 그리고 평문은 누구나 JSON 환경설정 파일을 들여다 볼 수 있다는 것을 개의치 않는다면 가장 단순한 암호 저장방식입니다.

공격자가 PC에 접근권한을 가진다면 이 세가지 방법은 모두 보안에 취약함을 명심하십시오. ASF must be able to decrypt the encrypted passwords, and if the program running on your machine is capable of doing that, then any other program running on the same machine will be capable of doing so, too. ProtectedDataForCurrentUser는 심지어 같은 PC를 이용하는 다른 사용자도 복호화를 할 수 없을만큼 가장 안전하지만, 누군가가 로그인 자격과 기기정보, ASF 환경설정 파일을 숨친다면 여전히 복호화는 가능합니다.

In addition to encryption methods specified above, it's possible to also avoid specifying passwords entirely, for example as SteamPassword by using an empty string or null value. ASF will ask you for your password when it's required, and won't save it anywhere but keep in memory of currently running process, until you close it. While being the most secure method of dealing with passwords (they're not saved anywhere), it's also the most troublesome as you need to enter your password manually on each ASF run (when it's required). 문제가 안된다면 가장 보안측면에서 최선의 방법입니다.

복호화

ASF는 이미 암호화된 암호를 복호화하는 어떠한 방법도 지원하지 않습니다. 복호화 방법은 프로세스 안에서 데이터에 접근하기 위해 내부적으로만 사용됩니다. If you want to revert encryption procedure e.g. for moving ASF to other machine when using ProtectedDataForCurrentUser, then simply repeat the procedure from beginning in the new environment.

Hashing

ASF currently supports the following hashing mechanisms:

값	이름
0	평문(PlainText)
1	SCrypt
2	Pbkdf2

The exact description and comparison of them is available below.

In order to generate a hash, e.g. for IPCPassword usage, you should execute hash command with the appropriate hashing method that you chose and your original plain-text password. Afterwards, put the hashed string that you've got as IPCPassword ASF config property, and finally change IPCPasswordFormat to the one that matches your chosen encryption method.

평문(PlainText)

This is the most simple and insecure way of hashing a password, defined as EHashingMethod of 0. ASF will generate hash matching the original input. It's the easiest one to use, and 100% compatible with all the setups, therefore it's a default way of storing secrets, totally insecure for safe storage.

SCrypt

Considered secure by today standards, SCrypt way of hashing the password is defined as EHashingMethod of 1. ASF will use the SCrypt implementation using 8 blocks, 8192 iterations, 32 hash length and encryption key as a salt.

ASF allows you to specify salt for this method via --cryptkey command-line argument, which you should use for maximum security. If you decide to omit it, ASF will use its own key which is known and hardcoded into the application, meaning hashing will be less secure. If used properly, guarantees decent security for safe storage.

Pbkdf2

Considered weak by today standards, Pbkdf2 way of hashing the password is defined as EHashingMethod of 2. ASF will use the Pbkdf2 implementation using 10000 iterations, 32 hash length and encryption key as a salt, with SHA-256 as a hmac algorithm.

ASF allows you to specify salt for this method via --cryptkey command-line argument, which you should use for maximum security. If you decide to omit it, ASF will use its own key which is known and hardcoded into the application, meaning hashing will be less secure.

권장사항

If you'd like to use a hashing mechanism for storing some secrets, such as IPCPassword, we recommend to use SCrypt with custom salt, as it provides a very decent security against brute-forcing attempts. Pbkdf2 is offered only for compatibility reasons, mainly because we already have a working (and needed) implementation of it for other use cases across Steam platform (e.g. parental pins). It's still considered secure, but weak compared to alternatives (e.g. SCrypt).
