Lower Bounds on Signatures From Symmetric Primitives
We show that every construction of one-time signature schemes from a random oracle achieves black-box security at most 2(1+o(1))q , where q is the total number of oracle queries a...

Pseudo-random functions and parallelizable modes of operations of a block cipher
This paper considers the construction and analysis of pseudo-random functions (PRFs) with specific reference to modes of operations of a block cipher. In the context of message aut...

Indifferentiable Security Analysis of Popular Hash Functions with Prefix-Free Padding
Understanding what construction strategy has a chance to be a good hash function is extremely important nowadays. In TCC'04, Maurer et al. [13] introduced the notion of indiff...

Extractors against Side-Channel Attacks: Weak or Strong?
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 ...

A Modular Design for Hash Functions: Towards Making the Mix-Compress-Mix Approach Practical
The design of cryptographic hash functions is a very complex and failure-prone process. For this reason, this paper puts forward a completely modular and fault-tolerant approach to...
