The Weil and Tate pairings have been used recently to build new schemes in cryptography. It is known that the Weil pairing takes longer than twice the running time of the Tate pair...
HAVAL is a cryptographic hash function proposed in 1992 by Zheng, Pieprzyk and Seberry. Its has a structure that is quite similar to other well-known hash functions such as MD4 and...

This paper provides a comprehensive treatment of forward-security in the context of sharedkey based cryptographic primitives, as a practical means to mitigate the damage caused by...
We present extremely simple ways of embedding a backdoor in the key generation scheme of RSA. Three of our schemes generate two genuinely random primes p and q of a given size, to...
We present an algorithm which speeds scalar multiplication on a general elliptic curve by an estimated 3.8% to 8.5% over the best known general methods when using affine coordinate...
