3D: A Three-Dimensional Block Cipher

Jorge Nakahara

The main contribution of this paper is a new iterated secret- key block cipher called 3D, inspired by the AES cipher. The 3D cipher has an SPN design, operates on 512-bit blocks, uses 512-bit keys, it- erates 22 rounds, and employs a 3-dimensional state, i ...

GossiCrypt: Wireless Sensor Network Data Confidentiality Against Parasitic Adversaries

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Panagiotis Papadimitratos, Jun Luo

Abstract—Resource and cost constraints remain a challenge for wireless sensor network security. In this paper, we propose a new approach to protect confidentiality against a parasitic adversary, which seeks to exploit sensor networks by obtaining measureme ...

Improving Digest-Based Collaborative Spam Detection

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Slavisa Sarafijanovic

Spam is usually sent in bulk. A bulk mailing consists of many copies of the same original spam message, each sent to a different recipient. The copies are usually obfuscated, i.e. modified a bit in order to look different from each other. In collaborative ...

Theory and tool support for the formal verification of cryptographic protocols

Sébastien Briais

Cryptographic protocols are an essential component of network communications. Despite their relatively small size compared to other distributed algorithms, they are known to be error-prone. This is due to the obligation to behave robustly in the context of ...

Cryptanalysis of e-mail protocols providing perfect forward secrecy

Recently, two e-mail protocols were proposed claiming to provide perfect secrecy. These protocols use authentication and (Diffie-Hellman) key-exchange techniques, and as such, other standard security criteria besides perfect forward secrecy include key-rep ...

Securing Coding Based Distributed Storage in Wireless Sensor Networks

László Czap, Levente Buttyan

We address the problem of pollution attacks in coding based distributed storage systems proposed for wireless sensor networks. In a pollution attack, the adversary maliciously alters some of the stored encoded packets, which results in the incorrect decodi ...

Hash-and-Sign with Weak Hashing Made Secure

Serge Vaudenay, Sylvain Pasini

Digital signatures are often proven to be secure in the random oracle model while hash functions deviate more and more from this idealization. Liskov proposed to model a weak hash function by a random oracle together with another oracle allowing to break s ...

Secure Position-Based Routing for VANETs

Panagiotis Papadimitratos, Charles Harsch

Vehicular communication (VC) systems have the potential to improve road safety and driving comfort. Nevertheless, securing the operation is a prerequisite for deployment. So far, the security of VC applications has mostly drawn the attention of research ef ...

Passive-Only Key Recovery Attacks on RC4

Serge Vaudenay, Martin Vuagnoux

We present several weaknesses in the key scheduling algorithm of RC4 when the secret key contains an initialization vector - a cryptographic scheme typically used by the WEP and WPA protocols to protect IEEE 802.11 wireless communications. First, we show h ...

Architecture for Secure and Private Vehicular Communications

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Panagiotis Papadimitratos, Maxime Raya, Levente Buttyan

The deployment of vehicular communication (VC) systems is strongly dependent on their security and privacy features. In this paper, we propose a security architecture for VC. The primary objectives of the architecture include the management of identities a ...
