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...
Weaknesses have recently been found in the widely used cryptographic hash functions SHA-1 and MD5. A potential alternative for these algorithms is the Whirlpool hash function, whi...
In this paper, we propose a secure biometric based authentication scheme which fundamentally relies on the use of a robust hash function. The robust hash function is a one-way tra...
The recently started SHA-3 competition in order to find a new secure hash standard and thus a replacement for SHA-1/SHA-2 has attracted a lot of interest in the academic world as ...
Since Bellare and Ristenpart showed a multi-property preserving domain extension transform, the problem of the construction for multi-property hash functions has been reduced to th...
