I'm just reading through the README trying to think of lines or phrases that will prompt questions from students that mentors probably should be prepared for. I'm not suggesting any changes to the content.

If your user data is compromised

  • What does compromised mean?

prevents escalation of a read only attack

  • What is a read only attack?
  • What does escalation mean in this context?

run a algorithm (eg MD5, SHA256)

  • What is the difference between these algorithms?

Feel free to add more.

This is exactly the kind of feedback we need. I'll get back to this tonight.

Am copy pasting @des-des comment from #9 and closing that issue:

  • brute force
  • escalation of a read only attack
  • This number is logarithmic so the execution time increases quite sharply. is it just the the execution time increases exponentially? Kinda the same, either way not sure students will know what the word logarithmic means
