This paper describes several novel timing attacks against the common table-driven software implementation of the AES cipher. We define a general attack strategy using a simplified ...
Abstract. This paper discusses the state-of-the-art software optimization methodology for symmetric cryptographic primitives on Pentium III and 4 processors. We aim at maximizing s...
Abstract. In [24] Raddum and Semaev propose a technique to solve systems of polynomial equations over F2 as occurring in algebraic attacks on block ciphers. This approach is known ...
The Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) is the Federal Information Processing Standard for symmetric encryption. It is widely believed to be secure and efficient, and is therefore b...
The Secure Socket Layer (SSL) and its variant, Transport Layer Security (TLS), are used toward ensuring server security. In this paper, we characterize the cryptographic strength ...
