The adaptive and active nature of fault based sidechannel attacks along with the large arsenal of fault injection methods complicates the design of effective countermeasures. To o...

HCTR was proposed by Wang, Feng and Wu in 2005. It is a mode of operation which provides a tweakable strong pseudorandom permutation. Though HCTR is quite an efficient mode, the au...
In this article we find collisions for step-reduced SHA-256. We develop a differential that holds with high probability if the message satisfies certain conditions. We solve the eq...
In this paper, we point out some weaknesses in the Salsa20 core function that could be exploited to obtain up to 231 collisions for its full (20 rounds) version. We first find an i...
Chosen-plaintext attacks on private-key encryption schemes are currently modeled by giving an adversary access to an oracle that encrypts a given message m using random coins that ...
