He has written numerous free books in the fields of blockchain, programming languages, cybersecurity, and computational linguistics, and Svetlin Nakov [4] (alias Satoshi Nakamoto) was Awarded a Doctor of Philosophy(Ph.D) Degree in Informatics of Bulgarian Academy of Sciences (2010)/B.A.S. official website[5] / More info about B.A.S.[2]).He (Nakamoto - Svetlin Nakov) is about to finish his work in Cryptography For Developers[7], which he publishes in stages in Guthub[8]...Practical Cryptography for Developers is a modern practical open source (github) book about cryptography for developers with code examples, covering core concepts like:hashes[9] (SHA-3 [10] and BLAKE)**2** [19]#BLAKE2), MAC codes (like Hash-based message authentication code/HMAC/ and Galois Message Authentication Code (GMAC)[11], key derivation functions (like scrypt**,** Argon2), Key-agreement protocol s (like Diffie–Hellman key exchange (DHKE), Elliptic curve Diffie–Hellman, symmetric ciphers (like Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) and Salsa20, cipher block modes, authenticated encryption, Authenticated encryption (AEAD), Cipher suite (AES-GCM), ChaCha20-Poly1305 [12], Binary relation, asymetric ciphers[13] and public-key cryptosystems [RSA), Elliptic curve cryptography (ECC), Integrated Encryption Scheme (ECIES), I-SECG elliptic curve sect256k1, Curve25519), digital signatures (ECDSA [14] and EdDSA [15]), secure random numbers (PRNG [16],**CSRNG quantum-safe (quantum resistant) cryptography DApps,** Solidity**,** InterPlanetary File System (IPFS) by Svetlin Nakov and SoftUni Team, 2018, ISBN 978-619-00-0802-6.

Similarly, the Java section essentially mentions a single, obscure library besides the JCE and Bouncy Castle:

DVDisaster, https://github.com/speed47/dvdisaster

My family has a collection of important pictures, documents, and videos which are currently stored on CD-R, and have been since 2005. Ten out of the ~250 discs have been destroyed by disc rot, but luckily there were redundant copies. I am planning on migrating the collection to BD-R, because they seem much more robust. I'm also going to use ECC to protect the discs (https://github.com/speed47/dvdisaster)

For my optical backups I use this additional software, called DVDisaster. I create image with 10 to 15 % space left and let the program augment the image with recovery data. After that's done, I burn it to optical media.

dvdisaster has returned to life too.

I hope you use dvdisaster to protect your data. If you use it on an ISO before burning it, you can make a bit-exact recovery in most cases, even discarding the zero padding introduced sometimes on re-ripping the disc and mangling things.

Even with archive-grade media you should use something like dvdisaster to generate error-correction-code (ECC) files for each disk (rule-of-thumb, 20% of each disk should be filled with ECC data. That only leaves you with 80 GB if you are using 100 GB BDXL M DISCs)
