Abstract. ESSENCE is a family of cryptographic hash functions, accepted to the first round of NIST's SHA-3 competition. This paper presents the first known attacks on ESSENCE....
At CHES 2010, the new block cipher PRINTcipher was presented as a light-weight encryption solution for printable circuits [15]. The best attack to date is a differential attack [1...

Abstract. Square is a multivariate quadratic encryption scheme proposed in 2009. It is a specialization of Hidden Field Equations by using only odd characteristic elds and also X2...
In this paper we propose a new approach to investigate the security of the McEliece cryptosystem. We recall that this cryposystem relies on the use of error-correcting codes. Since...
Abstract. In 1985 Fell and Diffie proposed constructing trapdoor functions with multivariate equations [11]. They used several sequentially solved stages. Another idea of building ...
