Abstract. In this paper, we study the security of the Encrypt-MaskDecrypt mode of operation, also called EMD, which was recently proposed for applications such as disk-sector encry...
We introduce “mod n cryptanalysis,” a form of partitioning attack that is effective against ciphers which rely on modular addition and bit rotations for their security. We dem...
Abstract. The security of the alleged RC4 stream cipher and some variants is investigated. Cryptanalytic algorithms are developed for a known plaintext attack where only a small se...

The Pintsov-Vanstone signature scheme with partial message recovery (PVSSR) is a variant of the Schnorr and Nyberg-Rueppel signature schemes. It produces very short signatures on ...
Abstract. RC4, a stream cipher designed by Rivest for RSA Data Security Inc., has found several commercial applications, but little public analysis has been done to date. In this p...
