In cryptography, there has been tremendous success in building primitives out of homomorphic semantically-secure encryption schemes, using homomorphic properties in a blackbox way...
We address the issue of encrypting data in local storage using a key that is derived from the user's password. The typical solution in use today is to derive the key from the...
Considering the solution of dynamic access problems in a user hierarchy, a novel scheme based on one-way hash function is proposed to manage the cryptographic keys in the paper. T...
Recent research in sensor networks has raised issues of security for small embedded devices. Security concerns are motivated by the deployment of a large number of sensory devices...
We investigate several previously suggested scenarios of instantiating random oracles (ROs) with “realizable” primitives in cryptographic schemes. As candidates for such “in...
