This thesis presents work on the efficiency and security of cryptographic software. First it describes several efforts to construct very efficient implementations of cryptographic primitives. These include the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) as well as ...
This PhD thesis is concerned with authentication protocols using portable lightweight devices such as RFID tags. these devices have lately gained a significant attention for the diversity of the applications that could benefit form their features, ranging ...
In order to alleviate the burden of short keys, encrypting a multiple times has been proposed. In the multiple encryption mode, there may be encryptions under the same or different keys. There have been several attacks against this encryption mode. When tr ...
Triple encryption was proposed to increase the security of single encryption when the key is too short. In the past, there have been several attacks in this encryption mode. When triple encryption is based on two keys, Merkle and Hellman proposed a subtle ...
This paper presents new software speed records for AES-128 encryption for architectures at both ends of the performance spectrum. On the one side we target the low-end 8-bit AVR rnicrocontrollers and 32-bit ARM microprocessors, while on the other side of t ...

We give two impossibility results regarding strong encryption over an infinite enumerable domain. The first one relates to statistically secure one-time encryption. The second one relates to computationally secure encryption resisting adaptive chosen ciphe ...
