Secure and Efficient Cryptographic Algorithms in a Quantum World

Since the advent of internet and mass communication, two public-key cryptographic algorithms have shared the monopoly of data encryption and authentication: Diffie-Hellman and RSA. However, in the last few years, progress made in quantum physics -- and mo ...

An Ultra-High Throughput AES-Based Authenticated Encryption Scheme for 6G: Design and Implementation

Subhadeep Banik, Andrea Felice Caforio

In this paper, we propose Rocca-S, an authenticated encryption scheme with a 256-bit key and a 256-bit tag targeting 6G applications bootstrapped from AES. Rocca-S achieves an encryption/decryption speed of more than 200 Gbps in the latest software environ ...

Green Cryptography and Other Optimisations

Andrea Felice Caforio

The spectral decomposition of cryptography into its life-giving components yields an interlaced network of tangential and orthogonal disciplines that are nonetheless invariably grounded by the same denominator: their implementation on commodity computing p ...

PAE: Towards More Efficient and BBB-Secure AE from a Single Public Permutation

Ritam Bhaumik

Four recent trends have emerged in the evolution of authenticated encryption schemes: (1) Regarding simplicity, the adoption of public permutations as primitives allows for sparing a key schedule and the need for storing round keys; (2) using the sums of p ...

Security in the Presence of Quantum Adversaries

Khashayar Barooti

With the looming threat of large-scale quantum computers, a fair portion of recent cryptographic research has focused on examining cryptographic primitives from the perspective of a quantum adversary. Shor's 1994 result revealed that quantum computers can ...

Near Collision Attack Against Grain V1

Subhadeep Banik, Daniel Patrick Collins

A near collision attack against the Grain v1 stream cipher was proposed by Zhang et al. in Eurocrypt 18. The attack uses the fact that two internal states of the stream cipher with very low hamming distance between them, produce similar keystream sequences ...

BBB security for 5-round even-Mansour-based key-alternating Feistel ciphers

Ritam Bhaumik

In this paper, we study the security of the Key-Alternating Feistel (KAF) ciphers, a class of key alternating ciphers with the Feistel structure, where each round of the cipher is instantiated with n-bit public round permutation Pi\documentclass[12pt]{mini ...

Bit-Line Computing for CNN Accelerators Co-Design in Edge AI Inference

David Atienza Alonso, Giovanni Ansaloni, Alexandre Sébastien Julien Levisse, Flavio Ponzina, Marco Antonio Rios

By supporting the access of multiple memory words at the same time, Bit-line Computing (BC) architectures allow the parallel execution of bit-wise operations in-memory. At the array periphery, arithmetic operations are then derived with little additional o ...

DASS: Combining Dynamic & Static Scheduling in High-Level Synthesis

Paolo Ienne, Lana Josipovic

A central task in high-level synthesis is scheduling: the allocation of operations to clock cycles. The classic approach to scheduling is static, in which each operation is mapped to a clock cycle at compile-time, but recent years have seen the emergence o ...

Six shades lighter: a bit-serial implementation of the AES family

Subhadeep Banik, Muhammed Fatih Balli

Recently, cryptographic literature has seen new block cipher designs such as PRESENT, GIFT or SKINNY that aim to be more lightweight than the current standard, i.e., AES. Even though AES family of block ciphers were designed two decades ago, they still rem ...

Serial Lightweight Implementation Techniques for Block Ciphers

Muhammed Fatih Balli

Most of the cryptographic protocols that we use frequently on the internet are designed in a fashion that they are not necessarily suitable to run in constrained environments. Applications that run on limited-battery, with low computational power, or area ...

A Deeper Look at the Energy Consumption of Lightweight Block Ciphers

Francesco Regazzoni, Subhadeep Banik, Andrea Felice Caforio, Muhammed Fatih Balli

In the last few years, the field of lightweight cryptography has seen an influx in the number of block ciphers and hash functions being proposed. In the past there have been numerous papers that have looked at circuit level implementation of block ciphers ...

Orthros: A Low-Latency PRF

Subhadeep Banik

We present Orthros, a 128-bit block pseudorandom function. It is designed with primary focus on latency of fully unrolled circuits. For this purpose, we adopt a parallel structure comprising two keyed permutations. The round function of each permutation is ...

Atom: A Stream Cipher with Double Key Filter

Subhadeep Banik, Andrea Felice Caforio

It has been common knowledge that for a stream cipher to be secure against generic TMD tradeoff attacks, the size of its internal state in bits needs to be at least twice the size of the length of its secret key. In FSE 2015, Armknecht and Mikhalev however ...

Full key recovery side-channel attack against ephemeral SIKE on the Cortex-M4

Aymeric Genet, Novak Kaluderovic

This paper describes the first practical single-trace side-channel power analysis of SIKE. While SIKE is a post-quantum key exchange, the scheme still relies on a secret elliptic curve scalar multiplication which involves a loop of a double-and-add procedu ...

Further Results on Efficient Implementations of Block Cipher Linear Layers

Subhadeep Banik

At the FSE conference of ToSC 2018, Kranz et al. presented their results on shortest linear programs for the linear layers of several well known block ciphers in literature. Shortest linear programs are essentially the minimum number of 2-input xor gates r ...

Integrity and Metadata Protection in Data Retrieval

Kirill Nikitin

Secure retrieval of data requires integrity, confidentially, transparency, and metadata-privacy of the process. Existing protection mechanisms, however, provide only partially these properties: encryption schemes still expose cleartext metadata, protocols ...
