Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) algorithm is considered as a secured algorithm. Still, some security issues lie in the S-Box and the key used. In this paper, we have tried to give focus on the security of the key used. Here, the proposed…

Threshold cryptography has gained momentum in the last decades as a mechanism to protect long term secret keys. Rather than having a single secret key, this allows to distribute the ability to perform a cryptographic operation such as…

Secret sharing is a new alternative for outsourcing data in a secure way.It avoids the need for time consuming encryption decryption process and also the complexity involved in key management.The data must also be protected from untrusted…

Fully Encrypted Protocols (FEPs) have arisen in practice as a technique to avoid network censorship. Such protocols are designed to produce messages that appear completely random. This design hides communications metadata, such as version…

Traditional techniques to prevent damage from ransomware attacks are to detect and block attacks by monitoring the known behaviors such as frequent name changes, recurring access to cryptographic libraries and exchange keys with remote…

Recent announcements have shown the viability of end-to-end open-source (OS) Linux-capable RISC-V systems on chip (SoCs). However, practical application and software development platforms require efficient non-volatile storage, which is not…

Protecting data from malicious computer users continues to grow in importance. Whether preventing unauthorized access to personal photographs, ensuring compliance with federal regulations, or ensuring the integrity of corporate secrets, all…

Conventional techniques for compression and encryption are frequently laborious and resource-intensive, rendering them inappropriate for real-time applications. A plethora of research has been presented in the current literature to address…

The family of Information Dispersal Algorithms is applied to distributed systems for secure and reliable storage and transmission. In comparison with perfect secret sharing it achieves a significantly smaller memory overhead and better…

We propose a novel and flexible DNA-storage architecture, which divides the storage space into fixed-size units (blocks) that can be independently and efficiently accessed at random for both read and write operations, and further allows…

We present an optimal method for encoding cluster assignments of arbitrary data sets. Our method, Random Cycle Coding (RCC), encodes data sequentially and sends assignment information as cycles of the permutation defined by the order of…

Virtualization, after having found widespread adoption in the server and desktop arena, is poised to change the architecture of embedded systems as well. The benefits afforded by virtualization - enhanced isolation, manageability,…

Secure aggregation enables a group of mutually distrustful parties, each holding private inputs, to collaboratively compute an aggregate value while preserving the privacy of their individual inputs. However, a major challenge in adopting…

Reversible data hiding (RDH) has been extensively studied in the field of information security. In our previous work [1], an explicit implementation approaching the rate-distortion bound of RDH has been proposed. However, there are two…

The constant-time property is considered the security standard for cryptographic code. Code following the constant-time discipline is free from secret-dependent branches and memory accesses, and thus avoids leaking secrets through cache and…

Lightweight block cipher design has largely focused on incremental optimization of established paradigms such as substitution--permutation networks, Feistel structures, and ARX constructions, where security derives from the algebraic…

The growing gap between data and users calls for innovative tools that address the challenges faced by big data volume, velocity and variety. Along with these standard three V's of big data, an emerging fourth "V" is veracity, which…

The ability to hide information from unauthorized individuals has been a prevalent issue over the years. Countless algorithms such as DES, AES and SHA have been developed. These algorithms depend on varying key length and key management…

Block ciphers are versatile cryptographic ingredients that are used in a wide range of applications ranging from secure Internet communications to disk encryption. While post-quantum security of public-key cryptography has received…
