Learn Crypto Audit: from zero to expert, then sell it

Evidence, proof and selling tools for Crypto Audit

Level 1 Beginner: understand it

It reads Python and lists weak cryptography with the line, severity and fix.

Think of it like this: A locksmith checking every lock in a building and pointing out the ones any burglar knows how to open.

Read the full plain-English explanation: Crypto Audit, explained.

Level 2 User: see it work

Run it live: open the live demo. Before each result, guess what will happen. These are checks it must pass:

Level 3 Verifier: prove it yourself

This is the skill that sets you apart: you don't have to believe us, and neither do your customers.

  1. Install Python 3 if you don't have it (python.org/downloads).
  2. Download the kit and unzip it.
  3. Open a terminal in that folder. On Windows, click the folder's address bar, type cmd and press Enter. On a Mac, right-click the folder and choose New Terminal at Folder.
  4. Run python3 verify.py (on Windows, python verify.py). It checks the seal without the internet.
  5. Run python3 verify.py --live. It repeats every check from your own computer.
  6. Try to cheat it: open transcript.json in a text editor, change one character, save, and run python3 verify.py again. It must now say FAIL. Unzip a fresh copy afterward.

Level 4 Expert: know the edges

An expert knows what a product does not do, and says it first. That is what makes a buyer trust you.

You can say

Never say

Read the questions real buyers send, with honest answers: answers to buyer questions.

Test yourself (click a question to see the answer)

Why is weak crypto dangerous if code works?

It fails silently until a breach.

Languages?

Python.

In the live check "Signature check off, TLS check off, key in the code", what answer must come back, and why?

3. Three classic mistakes, three findings.

In the live check "Passwords hashed with MD5", what answer must come back, and why?

"WeakHash_MD5". MD5 is broken for passwords.

In the live check "AES in ECB mode", what answer must come back, and why?

"InsecureMode_ECB". ECB leaks patterns in the data.

Does a passing kit prove the product is safe for every possible input?

No. It proves what the live product answered to the inputs listed in the kit, and lets anyone check that again.

Has an independent party audited or certified this product?

No. No third-party audit is complete and no certification is held. Say so if asked.

Level 5 Seller: put it in front of a customer

  1. Copy, paste, send: the shortest route, no technical skill needed.
  2. Who buys it and where to find them.
  3. The sales conversation, then the offer and the close.
  4. The rules: read these before your first message.
  5. Selling tools with this product's evidence built in: pitch, emails, call script, objection answers, one-pager.

About money: your share is agreed in writing with FIRME AI CORPORATION before your first message (email vincent@firmeai.com). Nothing here promises income. Most messages get no reply; that is normal.
