Cryptanalysis of Plantlet

Subhadeep Banik, Khashayar Barooti

Plantlet is a lightweight stream cipher designed by Mikhalev, Armknecht and Muller in IACR ToSC 2017. It has a Grain-like structure with two state registers of size 40 and 61 bits. In spite of this, the cipher does not seem to lose in security against gene ...

Misuse Attacks on Post-quantum Cryptosystems

Serge Vaudenay, Loïs Evan Huguenin-Dumittan, Abdullah Talayhan, Fatma Betül Durak, Ciprian Baetu

Many post-quantum cryptosystems which have been proposed in the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NISI) standardization process follow the same meta-algorithm, but in different algebras or different encoding methods. They usually propose two ...

Provably Secure Authenticated Encryption

Damian Vizár

Authenticated Encryption (AE) is a symmetric key cryptographic primitive that ensures confidentiality and authenticity of processed messages at the same time. The research of AE as a primitive in its own right started in 2000. The security goals of AE wer ...

On Design of Robust Lightweight Stream Cipher with Short Internal State

Subhadeep Banik

The stream cipher Sprout with a short internal state was proposed in FSE 2015. Although the construction guaranteed resistance to generic Time Memory Data Tradeoff attacks, there were some weaknesses in the design and the cipher was completely broken. In t ...

Hardware Attacks against Hash-based Cryptographic Algorithms

Aymeric Genet

This thesis surveys the current state of the art of hash-based cryptography with a view to finding vulnerabilities related to side-channel attacks and fault attacks. For side-channel investigation, we analyzed the power consumption of an Arduino Due microc ...

Signature Schemes Secure Against Hard-to-Invert Leakage

Sebastian Faust

Side-channel attacks allow the adversary to gain partial knowledge of the secret key when cryptographic protocols are implemented in real-world hardware. The goal of leakage resilient cryptography is to design cryptosystems that withstand such attacks. In ...

Clever Arbiters Versus Malicious Adversaries

Serge Vaudenay

When moving from known-input security to chosen-input security, some generic attacks sometimes become possible and must be discarded by a specific set of rules in the threat model. Similarly, common practices consist of fixing security systems, once an exp ...

Efficient Public-Key Distance Bounding Protocol

Serge Vaudenay, Handan Kilinç Alper

Distance bounding protocols become more and more important because they are the most accurate solution to defeat relay attacks. They consist of two parties: a verifier and a prover. The prover shows that (s)he is close enough to the verifier. In some appli ...

Keeping Authorities “Honest or Bust” with Decentralized Witness Cosigning

Bryan Alexander Ford, Linus Gasser, Philipp Svetolik Jovanovic, Nicolas Gailly, Ismail Khoffi

Abstract—The secret keys of critical network authorities – such as time, name, certificate, and software update services – represent high-value targets for hackers, criminals, and spy agencies wishing to use these keys secretly to compromise other hosts. T ...

Dynamic NoC buffer allocation for MPSoC timing side channel attack protection

Mathias Soeken

Multi-Processors Systems-on-Chip (MPSoCs), as a key technology enabler of the new computation paradigm Internet-of-Things (IoT), are exposed to attacks. Malicious applications can be downloaded at runtime to the MPSoC, infect IPs and open doors to perform ...
