In this paper we present an improvement of the differential attack on hash functions based on block ciphers. By using the specific properties of the collision attack on hash functi...
Abstract. Dedicated hash functions are cryptographically secure compression functions which are designed specifically for hashing. They intend to form a practical alternative for ...
The security of hash functions based on a block cipher with a block length of m bits and a key length of k bits, where k ≤ m, is considered. New attacks are presented on a large ...
This paper reviews constructions of hash functions and MAC algorithms based on block ciphers. It discusses the main requirements for these cryptographic primitives, motivates these...
The design of cryptographic hash functions is a very complex and failure-prone process. For this reason, this paper puts forward a completely modular and fault-tolerant approach to...
