A block cipher is intended to be computationally indistinguishable from a random permutation of appropriate domain and range. But what are the properties of a random permutation? By the aid of exponential and ordinary generating functions,…
We classify 8-divisible binary linear codes with minimum distance 24 and small length. As an application we consider the codes associated to nodal sextics with 65 ordinary double points.
Semiconstrained systems were recently suggested as a generalization of constrained systems, commonly used in communication and data-storage applications that require certain offending subsequences be avoided. In an attempt to apply…
Secret keys can be extracted from the power consumption or electromagnetic emanations of unprotected devices. Traditional counter-measures have limited scope of protection, and impose several restrictions on how sensitive data must be…
We consider a communication problem in which the receiver must first detect the presence of an information packet and, if detected, decode the message carried within it. We present general nonasymptotic upper and lower bounds on the maximum…
A random access code (RAC) is a strategy to encode a message into a shorter one in a way that any bit of the original can still be recovered with nontrivial probability. Encoding with quantum bits rather than classical ones can improve this…
A novel original procedure of encryption/decryption based on the polyadic algebraic structures and on signal processing methods is proposed. First, we use signals with integer amplitudes to send information. Then we use polyadic techniques…
Ciphers are a powerful tool for encrypting communication. There are many different cipher types, which makes it computationally expensive to solve a cipher using brute force. In this paper, we frame the decryption task as a classification…
EVENODD+ codes are binary maximum distance separable (MDS) array codes for correcting double disk failures in RAID-6 with asymptotically optimal encoding/decoding/update complexities. However, the number of bits stored in each disk of…
The Anshel-Anshel-Goldfeld-Lemieux (abbreviated AAGL) key agreement protocol is proposed to be used on low-cost platforms which constraint the use of computational resources. The core of the protocol is the concept of an Algebraic Eraser…
When digital data are transmitted over a noisy channel, it is important to have a mechanism allowing recovery against a limited number of errors. Normally, a user string of 0's and 1's, called bits, is encoded by adding a number of…
The majority of text is stored in UTF-8, which must be validated on ingestion. We present the lookup algorithm, which outperforms UTF-8 validation routines used in many libraries and languages by more than 10 times using commonly available…
Fairly recently, a new encryption scheme for audio data encryption has been proposed by Naskar, P.K., et al. The cryptosystem is based on substitution-permutation encryption structure using DNA encoding at the substitution stage, in which…
Rijndael was standardized in 2001 by National Institute of Standard and Technology as the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES). AES is still being used to encrypt financial, military and even government confidential data. In 2005, Bernstein…
Secure codes are widely-studied combinatorial structures which were introduced for traitor tracing in broadcast encryption. To determine the maximum size of such structures is the main research objective. In this paper, we investigate the…
The Ulam sequence is defined as $a_1 =1, a_2 = 2$ and $a_n$ being the smallest integer that can be written as the sum of two distinct earlier elements in a unique way. This gives $$1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 11, 13, 16, 18, 26, 28, 36, 38, 47,…
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…
Advanced Encryption Standard is one of the most widely used and important symmetric ciphers for today. It well known, that it can be subjected to the quantum Grover's attack that twice reduces its key strength. But full AES attack requires…
In recent years, several encryption algorithms have been proposed to protect digital images from cryptographic attacks. These encryption algorithms typically use a relatively small key space and therefore, provide safe, especially if they…
A positive integer is called an $E_j$-number if it is the product of $j$ distinct primes. We prove that there are infinitely many triples of $E_2$-numbers within a gap size of $32$ and infinitely many triples of $E_3$-numbers within a gap…
