In this paper, we introduce a new approach to the generation of binary sequences by applying trace functions to elliptic curves over GF 2m. We call these sequences elliptic curve...
We describe the design of Yarrow, a family of cryptographic pseudo-random number generators (PRNG). We describe the concept of a PRNG as a separate cryptographic primitive, and the...
DEAL is a six- or eight-round Luby-Rackoff cipher that uses DES as its round function, with allowed key lengths of 128, 192, and 256 bits. In this paper, we discuss two new result...
Abstract. DES and triple-DES are two well-known and popular encryption algorithms, but they both have the same drawback: their block size is limited to 64 bits. While the cryptogra...
