The most known of public key cryptosystem was introduced in 1978 by Rivest, Shamir and Adleman [19] and now called the RSA public key cryptosystem in their honor. Later, a few authors gave a simply extension of RSA over algebraic numbers…
In 1998, M. S. Baptista proposed a chaotic cryptosystem, which has attracted much attention from the chaotic cryptography community: some of its modifications and also attacks have been reported in recent years. In [Phys. Lett. A 307 (2003)…
We define and analyze low-rank parity-check (LRPC) codes over extension rings of the finite chain ring $\mathbb{Z}_{p^r}$, where $p$ is a prime and $r$ is a positive integer. LRPC codes have originally been proposed by Gaborit et al.(2013)…

In 2021, the $p$-adic signature scheme and public-key encryption cryptosystem were introduced. These schemes have good efficiency but are shown to be not secure. The attack succeeds because the extension fields used in these schemes are…
The McEliece scheme is a generic frame which allows to use any error correcting code of which there exists an efficient decoding algorithm to design an encryption scheme by hiding the generator matrix code. Similarly, the Niederreiter frame…
Different variants of the code-based McEliece cryptosystem were pro- posed to reduce the size of the public key. All these variants use very structured codes, which open the door to new attacks exploiting the underlying structure. In this…
In the classical setting, public-key encryption requires randomness in order to be secure against a forward search attack, whereby an adversary compares the encryption of a guess of the secret message with that of the actual secret message.…
L\"ondahl and Johansson proposed last year a variant of the McEliece cryptosystem which replaces Goppa codes by convolutional codes. This modification is supposed to make structural attacks more difficult since the public generator matrix…
