This paper explores the crucial role of cryptographic hash functions in cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin. These functions, crucial for securing transactions without a centralized authority, illustrate ...

Chemist Anne Lüscher showed at 39C3 how synthetic DNA can be used for data storage and tamper-proof authentication.

Chaotic hash functions represent a cutting‐edge convergence between nonlinear dynamics and cryptographic science. These functions employ chaotic maps—mathematical systems that exhibit extreme ...

Computing practitioners encounter hash functions almost every day, although they may not necessarily be the center of attention. When you install software packages or updates, the authenticity of a ...

Abstract: The more complex 5G mobile communication network faces more serious security challenges. 5G authentication and key agreement (AKA) is utilized for authentication for user equipment (UE) and ...

Abstract: The multiplicative complexity (MC) is a cryptographic criterion that describes the vulnerability of a Boolean function to certain algebraic attacks, and in many important cryptographic ...

Cryptography is a mathematical discipline about securing communication and data from adversaries, focusing on protocols that prevent unauthorized access. Cryptographic functions are algorithms used ...

For more than two decades, large corporations have woven cryptographic functions directly into the fabric of their applications, believing that vendor-supplied encryption would safeguard data ...
