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 ...

Cryptographic Administration for Secure Group Messaging

Serge Vaudenay, Daniel Patrick Collins

Many real-world group messaging systems delegate group administration to the application level, failing to provide formal guarantees related to group membership. Taking a cryptographic approach to group administration can prevent both implementation and pr ...

Optimal Symmetric Ratcheting for Secure Communication

Serge Vaudenay, Andrea Felice Caforio, Daniel Patrick Collins, Hailun Yan

To mitigate state exposure threats to long-lived instant messaging sessions, ratcheting was introduced, which is used in practice in protocols like Signal. However, existing ratcheting protocols generally come with a high cost. Recently, Caforio et al. pro ...

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 ...

Compact Circuits for Combined AES Encryption/Decryption

Subhadeep Banik

The implementation of the AES encryption core by Moradi et al. at Eurocrypt 2011 is one of the smallest in terms of gate area. The circuit takes around 2400 gates and operates on an 8 bit datapath. However this is an encryption only core and unable to cate ...

Six Shades of AES

Subhadeep Banik, Muhammed Fatih Balli

Recently there have been various attempts to construct light weight implementations of the AES-128 encryption and combined encryption/ decryption circuits. However no known lightweight circuit exists forAES-192 and AES-256, the variants of AES that use lon ...

Some Cryptanalytic Results on Lizard

Subhadeep Banik

Lizard is a lightweight stream cipher proposed by Hamann, Krause and Meier in IACR ToSC 2017. It has a Grain-like structure with two state registers of size 90 and 31 bits. The cipher uses a 120 bit secret key and a 64 bit IV. The authors claim that Lizard ...

The upgraded JET toroidal Alfven eigenmode diagnostic system

Ambrogio Fasoli, Duccio Testa, Patrick Blanchard

The main characteristics of toroidal Alfven eigenmodes (TAEs) have been successfully investigated in JET (Joint European Torus) using the scheme of sweeping-frequency external excitation with tracking of the synchronously-detected resonances. However, due ...

Revisiting Iterated Attacks in the Context of Decorrelation Theory

Serge Vaudenay, Atefeh Mashatan, Asli Bay

Iterated attacks are comprised of iterating adversaries who can make d plaintext queries, in each iteration to compute a bit, and are trying to distinguish between a random cipher C and the perfect cipher C* based on all bits. Vaudenay showed that a 2d-dec ...

Resistance against Adaptive Plaintext-Ciphertext Iterated Distinguishers

Serge Vaudenay, Atefeh Mashatan, Asli Bay

Decorrelation Theory deals with general adversaries who are mounting iterated attacks, i.e., attacks in which an adversary is allowed to make d queries in each iteration with the aim of distinguishing a random cipher C from the ideal random cipher C^*. A b ...
