Collision resistant hash functions are an important basic tool for cryptographic applications such as digital signature schemes and integrity protection based on "fingerprinti...
Enhanced Target Collision Resistance (eTCR) property for a hash function was put forth by Halevi and Krawczyk in Crypto 2006, in conjunction with the randomized hashing mode that i...
Recent collision-finding attacks against hash functions such as MD5 and SHA-1 motivate the use of provably collision-resistant (CR) functions in their place. Finding a collision ...
We introduce a new cryptographic tool: multiset hash functions. Unlike standard hash functions which take strings as input, multiset hash functions operate on multisets (or sets). ...

Abstract. This paper reconsiders the established Merkle-Damg˚ard design principle for iterated hash functions. The internal state size w of an iterated n-bit hash function is trea...
