Concurrent Composition of Secure Protocols in the Timing Model
In the setting of secure multiparty computation, a set of mutually distrustful parties wish to securely compute some joint function of their inputs. In the stand-alone case, it ha...

Another Look at "Provable Security"
We give an informal analysis and critique of several typical “provable security” results. In some cases there are intuitive but convincing arguments for rejecting the conclusi...

Deterministic Polynomial-Time Equivalence of Computing the RSA Secret Key and Factoring
Abstract. We address one of the most fundamental problems concerning the RSA cryptosystem: does the knowledge of the RSA public and secret key-pair (e, d) yield the factorization o...

Theoretical Cryptanalysis of the Klimov-Shamir Number Generator TF-1
The internal state of the Klimov–Shamir number generator TF-1 consists of four words of size w bits each, whereas its intended strength is 22w. We exploit an asymmetry in its out...
