We propose a new countermeasure to protect block ciphers implemented in leaking devices, at the intersection between One-Time Programs and Boolean masking schemes. First, we show t...
Sequence compression is one of the most promising tools for strengthening pseudo-random generators used in stream ciphers. Indeed, adding compression components can thwart algebrai...
A classical construction of stream ciphers is to combine several LFSRs and a highly non-linear Boolean function f. Their security is usually analysed in terms of correlation attack...
Let X1, X2, . . . , Xk be independent n bit random variables. If they have arbitrary distributions, we show how to compute distributions like Pr{X1 ⊕ X2 ⊕ · · · ⊕ Xk} and ...
Cryptographic hash functions are often built on block ciphers in order to reduce the security of the hash to that of the cipher, and to minimize the hardware size. Proven secure co...
