Biometric authentication systems, based on secret key generation, work as follows. In the enrollment stage, an individual provides a biometric signal that is mapped into a secret key and a helper message, the former being prepared to become…
The McEliece public-key encryption scheme has become an interesting alternative to cryptosystems based on number-theoretical problems. Differently from RSA and ElGa- mal, McEliece PKC is not known to be broken by a quantum computer.…

Electronic whistleblowing systems are widely used due to their efficiency and convenience. The key to designing such systems lies in protecting the identity privacy of whistleblowers, preventing malicious whistleblowing, and ensuring the…
Verifying the quality of a random number generator involves performing computationally intensive statistical tests on large data sets commonly in the range of gigabytes. Limitations on computing power can restrict an end-user's ability to…
Baldi et \textit{al.} proposed a variant of McEliece's cryptosystem. The main idea is to replace its permutation matrix by adding to it a rank 1 matrix. The motivation for this change is twofold: it would allow the use of codes that were…
A token ring is an arrangement of N processors that take turns engaging in an activity which must be controlled. A token confers the right to engage in the controlled activity. Processors communicate with neighbors in the ring to obtain and…
To ensure the secure transmission of data, cryptography is treated as the most effective solution. Cryptographic key is an important entity in this procedure. In general, randomly generated cryptographic key (of 256 bits) is difficult to…

Confidential text corpora exist in many forms, but do not allow arbitrary sharing. We explore how to use such private corpora using privacy preserving text analytics. We construct typical text processing applications using appropriate…
