##Keyshanc Teensyduino ###What is it? The Keyshanc Teensyduino is a physical device that encrypts keystrokes using the Keyshanc algorithm. It has a PS/2 input and USB output. It can toggle between 11 user-defined Keyshanc ciphers by pressing F1-F11 and it can output plaintext by pressing F12.

It costs less than $30 (minus shipping) for all of the parts.

My Goal: The widespread use of my design and source code to enable privacy from the keyboard-to-the-application even on compromised (a.k.a. "monitored") workstations.

For a more detailed explanation of the Keyshanc Teensyduino and how to assemble one, please visit my blog at andrewcreed.com.

###File List

  • keyshanc.ino: This is the source code for the Keyshanc Teensyduino.
  • keyshancGenerator.cpp: This program creates 11 Keyshanc ciphers and outputs C++ code that can be copied and pasted into keyshanc.ino.

###What is required in order to use the Keyshanc Teensyduino? Nothing is required to be installed on the workstation itself. That was one of the primary design goals.

What is required is that the receiving application must be Keyshanc-enabled (I have an example console application in my Keyshanc repo and an example website here). The best method would be for the receiving application to allow the user to graphically enter the Keyshanc password currently being used.

This is where I need help from the open source community. I have developed the algorithm and an inexpensive hardware implementation, but I need members of the community to adopt Keyshanc and incorporate it in their own programs/websites.
