A Note on a Privacy-Preserving Distance-Bounding Protocol

Aikaterini Mitrokotsa, Jean-Philippe Aumasson

Distance bounding protocols enable a device to establish an upper bound on the physical distance to a communication partner so as to prevent location spoofing, as exploited by relay attacks. Recently, Rasmussen and Cˇapkun (ACM-CCS’08) observed that these ...

Improved Cryptanalysis of Skein

Willi Meier, Onur Özen, Jean-Philippe Aumasson

The hash function Skein is the submission of Ferguson et al. to the NIST Hash Competition, and is arguably a serious candidate for selection as SHA-3. This paper presents the first third-party analysis of Skein, with an extensive study of its main componen ...

TCHo: a Hardware-Oriented Trapdoor Cipher

Serge Vaudenay, Willi Meier, Jean-Philippe Aumasson

This paper improves the Finiasz-Vaudenay construction of TCHo, a hardware-oriented public-key cryptosystem, whose security relies in the hardness of finding a low-weight multiple of a given polynomial, and on the decoding of certain noisy cyclic linear cod ...
