We study the question of basing symmetric key cryptography on weak secrets. In this setting, Alice and Bob share an n-bit secret W, which might not be uniformly random, but the ad...
Abstract. We consider the problem of password-authenticated key exchange (PAK) also known as session-key generation using passwords: constructing session-key generation protocols t...
— Both broadcast encryption (BE) protocols and multicast key distribution (MKD) protocols try to solve the same problem of private group communication. For the first time, we dis...
In an open network such as the Internet, multicast security services typically start with group session-key distribution. Considering scalability for group communication among wide...
Abstract. Wireless LAN (WLAN) refers to the wireless network environment constructed indoors or outdoors, by using either the radio or light wave technology instead of wire signals...
