In modern cryptography, block encryption is a fundamental cryptographic primitive. However, it is impossible for block encryption to achieve the same security as one-time pad. Quantum mechanics has changed the modern cryptography, and lots…
In this paper we present an attack on a recently proposed code-based Private Information Retrieval (PIR) scheme. Indeed, the server can retrieve the index of the desired file with high probability in polynomial time. The attack relies on…
Modern circuits face various threats like reverse engineering, theft of intellectual property (IP), side-channel attacks, etc. Here, we present a novel approach for IP protection based on logic encryption (LE). Unlike established schemes…
Iterative refinement (IR) is a popular scheme for solving a linear system of equations based on gradually improving the accuracy of an initial approximation. Originally developed to improve upon the accuracy of Gaussian elimination,…
A hybrid encryption scheme is a public-key encryption system that consists of a public-key part called the key encapsulation mechanism (KEM), and a (symmetric) secret-key part called data encapsulation mechanism (DEM): the public-key part…
Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) has become a foundational component of modern AI systems, yet it introduces significant privacy risks by exposing user queries to service providers. To address this, we introduce PIR-RAG, a practical…

Currently, cryptography is in wide use as it is being exploited in various domains from data confidentiality to data integrity and message authentication. Basically, cryptography shuffles data so that they become unreadable by unauthorized…
Homomorphic encryption (HE) offers data confidentiality by executing queries directly on encrypted fields in the database-as-a-service (DaaS) paradigm. While fully HE exhibits great expressiveness but prohibitive performance overhead, a…
An information is a message which is received and understood. Information can be sent one person to another over a long range but the process of sending information must be done in a secure way especially in case of a private message.…
This paper studies the information theoretic secure aggregation problem in a three-layer hierarchical network with arbitrary heterogeneous data assignment, where clustered users communicate with an aggregation server through an intermediate…
In this paper, the problem of providing privacy to users requesting data over a network from a distributed storage system (DSS) is considered. The DSS, which is considered as the multi-terminal destination of the network from the user's…
We consider a reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS)-assisted heterogeneous network comprising legitimate information-harvesting receivers (IHRs) and untrusted energy-harvesting receivers (UEHRs). A multi-antenna base station (BS)…
This paper proposes an efficient secret key cryptosystem based on polar codes over Binary Erasure Channel. We introduce a method, for the first time to our knowledge, to hide the generator matrix of the polar codes from an attacker. In…
Information extraction (IE) has been studied extensively. The existing methods always follow a fixed extraction order for complex IE tasks with multiple elements to be extracted in one instance such as event extraction. However, we conduct…
As the number of hacking events and cyber threats keeps going up, it is getting harder and harder to communicate securely and keep personal information safe on the Internet. Cryptography is a very important way to deal with these problems…

A private information retrieval (PIR) scheme is a protocol that allows a user to retrieve a file from a database without revealing the identity of the desired file to a curious database. Given a distributed data storage system, efficient…
A characterization of predicate encryption (PE) with support for homomorphic operations is presented and we describe the homomorphic properties of some existing PE constructions. Even for the special case of IBE, there are few known…
