Abstract. Bellare and Kohno introduced a formal framework for the study of related-key attacks against blockciphers. They established sufficient conditions (output-unpredictabilit...

In this paper, we introduce new compression function design principles supporting variable output lengths (multiples of size n). They are based on a function or block cipher with a...
We describe the first domain extender for ideal ciphers, i.e. we show a construction that is indifferentiable from a 2n-bit ideal cipher, given a n-bit ideal cipher. Our construc...
Abstract. The security of iterated hash functions relies on the properties of underlying compression functions. We study highly efficient compression functions based on block ciphe...
A cryptanalysis is given of a MAC proposal presented at CRYPTO 2003 by Cary and Venkatesan. A nice feature of the CaryVenkatesan MAC is that a lower bound on its security can be pr...
