Lai Massey Cipher Designs

This book provides the first extensive survey of block ciphers following the Lai-Massey design paradigm. After the introduction, with historical remarks, the author structures the book into a chapter on the description of the PES, IDEA and other related ciphers, followed by a chapter on cryptanalysis of these ciphers, and another chapter on new cipher designs. The appendices include surveys of cryptographic substitution boxes and of MDS codes. This comprehensive treatment can serve as a reference source for researchers, students and practitioners.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 31st Annual International Conference on the Theory and Applications of Cryptographic Techniques, EUROCRYPT 2012, held in Cambgridge, UK, in April 2012. The 41 papers, presented together with 2 invited talks, were carefully reviewed and selected from 195 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on index calculus, symmetric constructions, secure computation, protocols, lossy trapdoor functions, tools, symmetric cryptanalysis, fully homomorphic encryption, asymmetric cryptanalysis, efficient reductions, public-key schemes, security models, and lattices.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Mathematical Aspects of Computer and Information Sciences, MACIS 2019, held in Gebze, Turkey, in November 2019. The 22 revised papers and 14 short papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 66 submissions. The papers are organized in the following topical sections: algorithms and foundation; security and cryptography; combinatorics, codes, designs and graphs; data modeling and machine learning; tools and software track.

This book constitutes the proceedings of the International Conference on Trusted Systems, held in Beijing, China, in December 2009.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the 11th International Workshop on Selected Areas in Cryptography, SAC 2004, held in Waterloo, Canada in August 2004. The 24 revised full papers presented were carefully selected during two rounds of reviewing and improvement. The papers are organized in topical sections on stream cipher analysis, side channel analysis, block cipher design, efficient implementations, secret key cryptography, cryptanalysis, and cryptographic protocols.

Asiacrypt’99 was held in Singapore on 14-18 November 1999. Asiacrypt is one of the major events in the cryptology research community. Asiacrypt’99, the ?fth annual Asiacrypt conference, was sponsored by the Asiacrypt Steering Comm- tee and the Centre for Systems Security of the National University of Singapore, and in cooperation with the International Association for Cryptology Research. As the Program Co-Chairs of Asiacrypt’99, we are extremely honored to or- nize this event, which showcases the state-of-the-art development of cryptology research at the conclusion of this millennium. This year, a total of 96 research papers were submitted to Asiacrypt’99. The portfolio of country of origin of submissions serves as a good indicator of the - ternational reputation of the conference. Countries from which submissions or- inated include: Australia, Belgium, China, Estonia, France, Germany, Greece, India, Iran, Japan, Korea, Norway, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Switzerland, Sin- pore, Spain, Taiwan, Thailand, The Netherlands, Turkey, Ukraine, UK, USA and Yugoslavia. Through a stringent refereeing process by the Program C- mittee, 31 papers of outstanding quality were accepted and are included in the conference proceedings. Accepted papers were authored by researchers from the following countries: Australia, Belgium, France, Germany, India, Japan, China, Singapore, Switzerland, Taiwan, The Netherlands, UK, and USA.

This state-of-the-art survey presents the outcome of the eSTREAM Project, which was launched in 2004 as part of ECRYPT, the European Network of Excellence in Cryptology (EU Framework VI). The goal of eSTREAM was to promote the design of new stream ciphers with a particular emphasis on algorithms that would be either very fast in software or very resource-efficient in hardware. Algorithm designers were invited to submit new stream cipher proposals to eSTREAM, and 34 candidates were proposed from around the world. Over the following years the submissions were assessed with regard to both security and practicality by the cryptographic community, and the results were presented at major conferences and specialized workshops dedicated to the state of the art of stream ciphers. This volume describes the most successful of the submitted designs and, over 16 chapters, provides full specifications of the ciphers that reached the final phase of the eSTREAM project. The book is rounded off by two implementation surveys covering both the software- and the hardware-oriented finalists.
