Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) present large potential performance gains within stream processing applications over the standard CPU. These performance gains are best realised wh...
The RC4 stream cipher is the most widely used software based stream cipher. It is based on a secret internal state of N = 256 bytes and two pointers. This paper proposes an efficie...
Randomness extractors are important tools in cryptography. Their goal is to compress a high-entropy source into a more uniform output. Beyond their theoretical interest, they have ...
Abstract. RC4, a stream cipher designed by Rivest for RSA Data Security Inc., has found several commercial applications, but little public analysis has been done to date. In this p...
Cache timing attacks are a class of side-channel attacks that is applicable against certain software implementations. They have generated significant interest when demonstrated ag...
