The hash function Skein is the submission of Ferguson et al. to the NIST Hash Competition, and is arguably a serious candidate for selection as SHA-3. This paper presents the firs...
In this paper, an improved differential cryptanalysis framework for finding collisions in hash functions is provided. Its principle is based on linearization of compression functi...

The hash function Blue Midnight Wish (BMW) is a candidate in the SHA-3 competition organised by the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). BMW was selected fo...
This paper gives a survey of attacks on Message Authentication Codes (MACs). First it defines the required security properties. Next it describes generic forgery and key recovery...
