Abstract. In the past thirty years, cryptology has evolved from a secret art to a modern science. Weaker algorithms and algorithms with short keys are disappearing, political contr...
Power analysis is a very successful cryptanalytic technique which extracts secret information from smart cards by analysing the power consumed during the execution of their interna...
We present a novel approach to improving the security of passwords. In our approach, the legitimate user’s typing patterns (e.g., durations of keystrokes and latencies between ke...
Abstract. This paper describes a timing attack on the RC5 block encryption algorithm. The analysis is motivated by the possibility that some implementations of RC5 could result in ...
Designers of cryptographic systems are at a disadvantage to most other engineers, in that information on how their systems fail is hard to get: their major users have traditionall...
