Abstract. The cipher family SPEED (and an associated hashing mode) was recently proposed in Financial Cryptography '97. This paper cryptanalyzes that proposal, in two parts: F...

In this paper we discuss PRNGs: the mechanisms used by real-world secure systems to generate cryptographic keys, initialization vectors, "random" nonces, and other values...

The block cipher RC2 was designed in 1989 by Ron Rivest for RSA Data Security Inc. In this paper we describe both the cipher and preliminary attempts to use both differential and l...

In this paper we describe our new CS2 block cipher which is an extension of the original CS-Cipher. Our new design inherits the efficiency of the original design while being upgrad...
The concept of public-key cryptography was invented in 1976 by Diffie and Hellman [DH]. The following year, Rivest, Shamir and Adleman provided an implementation of this idea [RSA]...
