Algebraic Cryptanalysis of Deterministic Symmetric Encryption

Petr Susil

Deterministic symmetric encryption is widely used in many cryptographic applications. The security of deterministic block and stream ciphers is evaluated using cryptanalysis. Cryptanalysis is divided into two main categories: statistical cryptanalysis and ...

Tornado Attack on RC4 with Applications to WEP & WPA

Serge Vaudenay, Martin Vuagnoux, Pouyan Sepehrdad, Petr Susil

In this paper, we construct several tools for building and manipulating pools of biases in the analysis of RC4. We report extremely fast and optimized active and passive attacks against IEEE 802.11 wireless communication protocol WEP and a key recovery and ...

HELEN: A Public-Key Cryptosystem Based on the LPN and the Decisional Minimal Distance Problems

Serge Vaudenay, Alexandre Raphaël Duc

We propose HELEN, a code-based public-key cryptosystem whose security is based on the hardness of the Learning from Parity with Noise problem (LPN) and the decisional minimum distance problem. We show that the resulting cryptosystem achieves indistinguisha ...

HELEN: a Public-key Cryptosystem Based on the LPN Problem (Extended Abstract)

Serge Vaudenay, Alexandre Raphaël Duc

We propose HELEN, a new code-based public-key cryptosystem whose security is based on the hardness of the Learning from Parity with Noise problem~(LPN) and the decisional minimum distance problem. We show that the resulting cryptosystem achieves indistingu ...

Computer Aided Cryptanalysis from Ciphers to Side Channels

Martin Vuagnoux

In this dissertation, we study the security of cryptographic protocols and cryptosystems from the mathematical definition of the primitives, up to their physical implementations in the real world. We propose a representation of the chronological design usi ...

Analysis and Optimization of Cryptographically Generated Addresses

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Joppe Willem Bos, Onur Özen

The need for nodes to be able to generate their own address and verify those from others, without relying on a global trusted authority, is a well-known problem in networking. One popular technique for solving this problem is to use self-certifying address ...

Quantitative security of block ciphers

Thomas Baignères

Block ciphers probably figure in the list of the most important cryptographic primitives. Although they are used for many different purposes, their essential goal is to ensure confidentiality. This thesis is concerned by their quantitative security, that i ...
