The task of this paper is to introduce a new lightweight identification protocol based on biometric data and elliptic curves. In fact, we combine biometric data and asymetric cryptography, namely elliptic curves and standard tools to design…
In Internet of Things (IoT) networks, the amount of data sensed by user devices may be huge, resulting in the serious network congestion. To solve this problem, intelligent data compression is critical. The variational information…
Nowadays sparse systems of equations occur frequently in science and engineering. In this contribution we deal with sparse systems common in cryptanalysis. Given a cipher system, one converts it into a system of sparse equations, and then…
Visual sensors serve as a critical component of the Internet of Things (IoT). There is an ever-increasing demand for broad applications and higher resolutions of videos and cameras in smart homes and smart cities, such as in security…
As LLMs continue to increase in parameter size, the computational resources required to run them are available to fewer parties. Therefore, third-party inference services -- where LLMs are hosted by third parties with significant…
Security has always been a priority, for researchers, service providers and network operators when it comes to radio access networks (RAN). One wireless access approach that has captured attention is blockchain enabled RAN (B-RAN) due to…
Network Function Virtualisation (NFV) advances the adoption of composable software middleboxes. Accordingly, cloud data centres become major NFV vendors for enterprise traffic processing. Due to the privacy concern of traffic redirection to…
Cryptography is the discipline that allows securing of the exchange of information. In this internship, we will focus on a certain branch of this discipline, secure computation in a network. The main goal of this internship, illustrated in…
This paper presents a new scheme for hiding a secret message in binary images. Given m*n cover image block, the new scheme can conceal as many as log(m*n +1) bits of data in block, by changing at most one bit in the block. The hiding…
A common approach to protect confidential information is to use a stream cipher which combines plain text bits with a pseudo-random bit sequence. Among the existing stream ciphers, Non-Linear Feedback Shift Register (NLFSR)-based ones…
This paper studies the problem of embedding very large information networks into low-dimensional vector spaces, which is useful in many tasks such as visualization, node classification, and link prediction. Most existing graph embedding…
In this paper, we propose a new key-based defense focusing on both efficiency and robustness. Although the previous key-based defense seems effective in defending against adversarial examples, carefully designed adaptive attacks can bypass…
We introduce a protocol called ENCORE which simultaneously compresses and encrypts data in a one-pass process that can be implemented efficiently and possesses a number of desirable features as a streaming encoder/decoder. Motivated by the…
Line map, an invertible, two-dimensional chaotic encryption algorithm was introduced recently. In this paper, we propose several weaknesses of the method based on standard cryptanalytic attacks. We perform a side-channel attack by observing…
Versatile video coding (VVC) is the next generation video coding standard developed by the joint video experts team (JVET) and released in July 2020. VVC introduces several new coding tools providing a significant coding gain over the high…
An improved design of a cryptosystem based on small Ree groups is proposed. We have changed the encryption algorithm and propose to use a logarithmic signature for the entire Ree group. This approach improves security against sequential key…
We present $\mathsf{Miranda}$, the first family of full-domain-hash signatures based on matrix codes. This signature scheme fulfils the paradigm of Gentry, Peikert and Vaikuntanathan ($\mathsf{GPV}$), which gives strong security guarantees.…
The Bitcoin Lightning Network (BLN) was launched in 2018 to scale up the number of transactions between Bitcoin owners. Although several contributions concerning the analysis of the BLN binary structure have recently appeared in the…
Minwise hashing has become a standard tool to calculate signatures which allow direct estimation of Jaccard similarities. While very efficient algorithms already exist for the unweighted case, the calculation of signatures for weighted sets…
Lightweight cryptography is becoming essential as emerging technologies in digital identity systems and Internet of Things verification continue to demand strong cryptographic assurance on devices with limited processing power, memory, and…
