Abstract. Highly nonlinear Boolean functions occupy an important position in the design of secure block as well as stream ciphers. This paper proves two new lower bounds on the non...
This paper is about the design of multivariate public key schemes, as well as block and stream ciphers, in relation to recent attacks that exploit various types of multivariate alg...
Randomness extractors are important tools in cryptography. Their goal is to compress a high-entropy source into a more uniform output. Beyond their theoretical interest, they have ...
The popularity of the Web has created a great marketplace for businesses to sell and showcase their products increasing the need for secure Web services such as SSL, TLS or SET. We...
Achieving high performance in cryptographic processing is important due to the increasing connectivity among today’s computers. Despite steady improvements in microprocessor and...
