Abstract: The main contribution of this paper is to present an efficient hardware algorithm for RSA encryption/decryption based on Montgomery multiplication. Modern FPGAs have a number of embedded DSP ...

SHEEP is development code. We strongly recommend that you do not deploy this prototype application in a production setting. SHEEP is intended to be an academic research framework to explore the ...

In today’s data-driven world, everyone is navigating a vast ocean of information that transcends across unsecured links and can easily fall prey to digital hackers. To keep our data safe, it is ...

This is a very simple (and NOT a highly optimized and secure) implementation of AES only written to teach you the BASICS of this algorithm. I used a tutorial previously available on progressive-coding ...

A previously unknown piece of ransomware, dubbed ShrinkLocker, encrypts victim data using the BitLocker feature built into the Windows operating system. BitLocker is a full-volume encryptor that ...

Homomorphic encryption (HME) is getting a lot of attention. For example, it is proposed as a way to scan encrypted data for illegal content. But some of the claims being made about it are unrealistic ...

Before we move into the meat of this article, let’s define a couple terms related to cryptography. The syllable crypt may make you think of tombs, but it comes from a Greek word that means “hidden” or ...
