Releasing a classical digital signature faces to privacy issues. Indeed, there are cases where the prover needs to authenticate some data without making it possible for any malicious verifier to transfer the proof to anyone else. It is for instance the cas ...
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 ...
Passports are documents that help immigration officers to identify people. In order to strongly authenticate their data and to automatically identify people, they are now equipped with RFID chips. These contain private information, biometrics, and a digita ...
Since the late 70’s, several public key cryptographic algorithms have been proposed. Diffie and Hellman first came with this concept in 1976. Since that time, several other public key cryptosystems were invented, such as the well known RSA, ElGamal or Rabin c ...

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 ...
We present a new undeniable signature scheme which is based on the computation of characters. Our signature scheme offers the advantage of having an arbitrarily short signature. Its asymptotic complexity is attractive: the asymptotic complexity of all algo ...
We present a scheme for secure and privacy-preserving communication in hybrid ad hoc networks. Our scheme enables users to secure communication and to protect their anonymity and location privacy. Our approach is based on frequently changing node pseudonym ...
The main topic of this thesis is related to the state of the art in designing cryptographic primitives from a hardware point of view. A special emphasis is dedicated to low-power/low-energy CMOS design. A set of solutions is proposed including an LFSR base ...
We use bounds of exponential sums to show that, for a wide class of parameters, the modification of the digital signature algorithm (DSA) scheme proposed by A.K. Lenstra (see Proc. Asiacrypt'96, Lect. Notes in Comp. Sci., vol.1163, p.57-64, 1996) is as sec ...
