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....
Hash functions play the most important role in various cryptologic applications, ranging from data integrity checking to digital signatures. Our goal is to introduce a new hash fu...
— From copyright protection to error concealment, video data hiding has found usage in a great number of applications. Recently proposed applications such as privacy data preserv...
We initiate a complexity-theoretic treatment of hardness amplification for collision-resistant hash functions, namely the transformation of weakly collision-resistant hash functio...
