Abstract. SPEED is a private key block cipher. It supports three variable parameters: (1) data length — the length of a plaintext/ciphertext of SPEED can be 64, 128 or 256 bits. ...
Most encryption algorithms are designed without regard to their performance on top-of-the-line microprocessors. This paper discusses general optimization principles algorithms desi...
A broadcast encryption scheme allows the sender to securely distribute data to a dynamically changing set of users over an insecure channel. One of the most challenging settings fo...
This paper shows that the actual proposal for an unbalanced Feistel network by Schneier and Blaze is as vulnerable to differential cryptanalysis as the DES. 1 McGuffin Schneier and...
We describe results from an apparatus and protocol designed to implement quantum key distribution, by which two users, who share no secret information initially: 1) exchange a ran...
