In 2007, National Institute of Standards and Technology has announced a contest for a new American cryptographic hash function standard, called SHA-3. At the time of writing, after eliminating 37 algorithms in Round 1, ...

A Hardware Implementation of the SOM for a Network Intrusion Detection System

Roeder, Brent W. (2011-08-18)

This thesis describes the research and development of a hardware implementation of the Self Organizing Map (SOM) for a network intrusion detection system. As part of the thesis research, Kohonen’s SOM algorithm was examined ...

Hardware/Software Codesign Approaches to Public Key Cryptosystems

Sharif, Malik Umar

If a quantum computer with a sufficient number of qubits was ever built, it would easily break all current American federal standards in the area of public-key cryptography, including algorithms protecting the majority of ...

High-Speed Implementation of Post-Quantum Cryptography Multivariate Signature Schemes

Ferozpuri, Ahmed

Multivariate cryptosystems belong to the five most promising families of post-quantum cryptography (PQC) schemes. Among them, the Unbalanced Oil and Vinegar (UOV) and the Rainbow signature schemes have been extensively ...

Implementation and Benchmarking of Padding Units and HMAC for SHA-3 Candidates in FPGAs and ASICs

Vyas, Ambarish (2012-02-02)

In 2005, a major security flaw was discovered in Secure Hash Algorithm-1 (SHA-1), an NSA-designed cryptographic hash function, standardized by National Institute of Science and Technology (NIST) since 1995. Basic ...

Implementation and Simulation of Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) in Windows Presentation Foundation

Vachharajani, Harsh (2017-01-26)

SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) and TLS (Transport Layer Security) are cryptographic protocols designed to provide secure communication between a web server and a web browser. This thesis introduces a unique approach to ...

Implementation, Benchmarking, and Protection of Lightweight Cryptography Candidates

Haeussler, Richard

In August 2019, the US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) announced 32 candidates for Round 2 of their Lightweight Cryptography (LWC) standardization process. NIST needed to understand how each of the ...

Number Field Sieve: Pseudocodes and Software Implementation

Winograd, Theodore Kemp (2012-01-30)

The RSA cryptosystem has been the mainstay of modern cryptography since it was first introduced in 1978. RSA serves as the basis for securing modern e-commerce–it functions as the primary key exchange mechanism for the ...

Parameter Selection Refinement and Software Implementations of Spectral Modular Exponentiation

Estes, Matthew (2010-11-01)

A consistent challenge to the widespread use public key cryptosystems, such as RSA, is the computational difficulty of performing arithmetic operations with large operands. There are many branches of mathematics and ...

Tools and Experimental Setup for Efficient Hardware Benchmarking of Candidates in Cryptographic Contests

Farahmand, Farnoud

Hardware benchmarking of candidates competing in cryptographic contests, such as SHA-3 and CAESAR, is very important for ranking of their suitability for standardization. A huge amount of time is necessary to design the ...
