In an effort to design a MAC scheme that is built using block cipher components and runs faster than the modes of operation for message authentication, Daemen and Rijmen have propo...
Abstract. We provide the first proof of security for Abreast-DM, one of the oldest and most wellknown constructions for turning a block cipher with n-bit block length and 2n-bit k...
This paper concerns the problem of reducing the implementation cost of the switchable data-dependent operations (SDDOs) that are a new cryptographic primitive oriented to the desi...
Contrarily to Kerckhoffs’ principle, many applications of today’s cryptography still adopt the security by obscurity paradigm. Furthermore, in order to rely on its proven or e...
Ubiquitous computing has become a reality in recent years. Tiny wireless sensors and RFID tags are being deployed today and will soon form an important aspect of our infrastructur...
