We demonstrate the existence of an efficient block cipher with the property that whenever it is composed with any non-perfect cipher, the resulting product is strictly more secure, against an ideal adversary, than the original cipher. We call this property ...
In contrast with traditional cryptographic protocols in which parties can have access to common third parties, and where at least one of them is assumed to be honest, we propose here a new model which is relevant for networks of communication devices with ...
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 ...
Cryptographic protocols can enforce privacy in distributed computation of functions [Goldwasser'96] and are a competitor of the distributed constructive search techniques. [Goldreich'87,Chaum'87,Chaum'88,Ben-or'88] show how cryptographic protocols can be c ...

In this paper, we address the problem of service availability in mobile ad-hoc WANs. We present a secure mechanism to stimulate end users to keep their devices turned on, to refrain from overloading the network, and to thwart tampering aimed at converting ...
Digital data representation provides an efficient and fast way to access to information and to exchange it. In many situations though ownership or copyright protection mechanisms are desired. For still images and video, one possible way to achieve this is ...

This paper introduces the XTR public key system. XTR is based on a new method for representing elements of a subgroup of a multiplicative group of a finite field. Application of XTR in cryptographic protocols leads to substantial savings both in communicat ...
The ability of organisms, or individual cells, to react to external chemical signals, which are detected and transduced by cell-surface receptors, is crucial for their survival. These receptors are the targets of the majority of clinically used medicines. ...
