RSA-KEM is a popular key encapsulation mechanism that combines the RSA trapdoor permutation with a key derivation function (KDF). Often the details of the KDF are viewed as orthogo...
Every public-key encryption scheme has to incorporate a certain amount of randomness into its ciphertexts to provide semantic security against chosen ciphertext attacks (IND-CCA). ...
The intent of peer data management systems (PDMS) is to share as much data as possible. However, in many applications leveraging sensitive data, users demand adequate mechanisms to...
We proposed a new block cipher, Serpent, as a candidate for the Advanced Encryption Standard. This algorithm uses a new structure that simultaneously allows a more rapid avalanche,...
