Large classes of weak keys have been found for the block cipher algorithm IDEA, previously known as IPES [2]. IDEA has a 128bit key and encrypts blocks of 64 bits. For a class of 2...
We show how the electronic cash scheme in [Fer93a] can be extended to provide n-spendable coins. Furthermore, we show how observers can be incorporated in the protocols to provide...
Differential cryptanalysis analyzes ciphers by studying the development of differences during encryption. Linear cryptanalysis is similar but is based on studying approximate linea...
Abstract. Dedicated hash functions are cryptographically secure compression functions which are designed specifically for hashing. They intend to form a practical alternative for ...
Abstract. We construct the first O(1)-size designated confirmer signatures (DCS) with security in the state-of-the-art model of Camenisch and Michels, Eurocrypt 2000, without rando...
