LM-DAE: Low-Memory Deterministic Authenticated Encryption for 128-bit Security

Post-Quantum Security Models for Authenticated Encryption

We propose a security model for evaluating the security of authenticated encryption schemes in the post-quantum setting. Our security model is based on a combination of the classical Bellare-Namprempre security model for authenticated encryption together with modifications from Boneh and Zhandry to handle message authentication against quantum adversaries. We give a generic construction based o...

Deterministic Authenticated-Encryption: A Provable-Security Treatment of the Key-Wrap Problem

Standards bodies have been addressing the key-wrap problem, a cryptographic goal that has never received a provable-security treatment. In response, we provide one, giving definitions, constructions, and proofs. We suggest that key-wrap’s goal is security in the sense of deterministic authenticated-encryption (DAE), a notion that we put forward. We also provide an alternative notion, a pseudora...

Efficient Beyond-Birthday-Bound-Secure Deterministic Authenticated Encryption with Minimal Stretch

Block-cipher-based authenticated encryption has obtained considerable attention from the ongoing CAESAR competition. While the focus of CAESAR resides primarily on nonce-based authenticated encryption, Deterministic Authenticated Encryption (DAE) is used in domains such as key wrap, where the available message entropy motivates to omit the overhead for nonces. Since the highest possible securit...

Hardware Implementation of 128-Bit AES Image Encryption with Low Power Techniques on FPGA

This paper describes the implementation of a low power and high-speed encryption algorithm with high throughput for encrypting the image. Therefore, we select a highly secured symmetric key encryption algorithm AES(Advanced Encryption Standard), in order to decrease the power using retiming and glitch and operand isolation techniques in four stages, control unit based on logic gates, optimal de...
