On the Notions of PRP-RKA, KR and KR-RKA for Block Ciphers

Security of a modern block cipher is commonly measured in terms of its resistance to known attacks. While the provable security approach to block ciphers dates back to the first CRYPTO conference (1981), analysis of modern block cipher proposals typically ...

Dial C for Cipher

Thomas Baignères

We introduce C, a practical provably secure block cipher with a slow key schedule. C is based on the same structure as AES but uses independent random substitution boxes instead of a fixed one. Its key schedule is based on the Blum-Blum-Shub pseudo-random ...

Cryptography based on error correcting codes

Lorenz Minder

The idea to use error-correcting codes in order to construct public key cryptosystems was published in 1978 by McEliece [ME1978]. In his original construction, McEliece used Goppa codes, but various later publications suggested the use of different familie ...

High Security Pairing-Based Cryptography Revisited

Robert Granger

The security and performance of pairing based cryptography has provoked a large volume of research, in part because of the exciting new cryptographic schemes that it underpins. We re-examine how one should implement pairings over ordinary elliptic curves f ...

Mobility Helps Peer-to-Peer Security

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Levente Buttyan, Srdan Capkun

We propose a straightforward technique to provide peer-to-peer security in mobile networks. We show that far from being a hurdle, mobility can be exploited to set up security associations among users. We leverage on the temporary vicinity of users, during ...

On Small Degree Extension Fields in Cryptology

Robert Granger

This thesis studies the implications of using public key cryptographic primitives that are based in, or map to, the multiplicative group of finite fields with small extension degree. A central observation is that the multiplicative group of extension field ...

A Formal Semantics For Protocol Narrations

Sébastien Briais

Protocol narrations are a widely-used informal means to describe, in an idealistic manner, the functioning of cryptographic protocols as a single intended sequence of cryptographic message exchanges among the protocol’s participants. Protocol narrations ha ...

Cryptosystems and LLL

Thomas Baignères

Since the late 70’s, several public key cryptographic algorithms have been proposed. Diﬃe and Hellman ﬁrst came with this concept in 1976. Since that time, several other public key cryptosystems were invented, such as the well known RSA, ElGamal or Rabin c ...

When Stream Cipher Analysis Meets Public-Key Cryptography

Serge Vaudenay

Inspired by fast correlation attacks on stream ciphers, we present a stream cipher-like construction for a public-key cryptosystem whose security relies on two problems: finding a low-weight multiple of a given polynomial and a Hidden Correlation problem. ...

RFID Privacy based on Public-Key Cryptography (Abstract)

Serge Vaudenay

RFID systems makes it possible for a server to identify known tags in wireless settings. As they become more and more pervasive, people privacy is more and more threatened. In this talk, we list a few models for privacy in RFID and compare them. We review ...
