Abstract. Untraceability and unreuseability are essential security properties for electronic cash protocols. Many protocols have been proposed to meet these two properties. However...
Contrarily to Kerckhoffs’ principle, many applications of today’s cryptography still adopt the security by obscurity paradigm. Furthermore, in order to rely on its proven or e...
This papers introduces several binary scalar multiplication algorithms with applications to cryptography. Remarkably, the proposed algorithms regularly repeat the same pattern when...
In this paper, we present a practical attack on the signature scheme SFLASH proposed by Patarin, Goubin and Courtois in 2001 following a design they had introduced in 1998. The att...
