Cybersecurity

Hi all,

I'm looking for secure file encryption tools that use MAC address as encryption key. FYI, I'm using Red Hat Enterprise Linux OS.

For example: when A wants to send file to B
A will encrypt the file with B's computer MAC/IP address as an encryption key
This file can only be decrypted on B's computer (the tool detects the MAC address before doing a decryption)


If you know such a tool, please let me know.

Your proposed design provides no security once it is determined that the symmetric encryption key is the destination MAC address.

I'm sorry, there is a missing information.
For symmetric key, it uses AES to generate the symmetric key.

Other than AES key, it has another security feature, which is the file can only be decrypted on the computer that has similar MAC address with the destination MAC address that was defined during encryption by the sender.
