Cryptographic Modes of Operation for the Internet
White Paper Modes that may be appropriate and secure in one application or environment sometimes fail badly in others. This is especially true of stream modes where, e.g.re-use of the same segment of keystream to protect different plaintext renders the cipher... [03 Jul 2008]
The Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) Cryptographic Validation Process
White Paper The FIPS is part of a series of security validation processes developed by the United States (US) Department of Commerce, National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) for testing computer and network security products. [24 Feb 2004]
The $200,000 cryptographic challenge
News Security vendor RSA Security is offering up to $200,000 to anyone who can crack its 2048bit public key encryption. To win the money cryptographers will have to constantly factor different numbers together to decode the key. [24 Jul 2001]
A Cautionary Note Regarding Cryptographic Protocols Based on Composite Integers
White Paper These days it is rather common in cryptology to see ideas which originated in the setting of finite fields being extended to Z*N. However, the security results do not necessarily generalize to Z*N. In this paper, the authors illustrate this... [24 Feb 2004]
