Abstract. In this paper we present a simpler construction of a publickey encryption scheme that achieves adaptive chosen ciphertext security (CCA2), assuming the existence of trapd...
A chosen-plaintext attack on two-key triple encryption noted by Merkle and Hellman is extended to a known-plaintext attack. The known-plaintext attack has lower memory requirements...
We show that, in the ideal-cipher model, triple encryption (the cascade of three independently-keyed blockciphers) is more secure than single or double encryption, thereby resolvin...
In this paper we examine the security criteria for a KEM and a DEM that are sufficient for the overall hybrid encryption scheme to be plaintext-aware in the standard model. We appl...
The holy grail of a mathematical model of secure encryption is to devise a model that is both faithful in its description of the real world, and yet admits a construction for an en...
