Generation and Testing of Random Numbers for Cryptographic Applications
Random number sequences are of crucial importance in almost every aspect of modern digital cryptography, having a significant impact on the strength of cryptographic primitives in securing secret information by rendering it unknown, unguessable, unpredictable and irreproducible for an adversary. Although the major importance of high performance and high quality randomness generators in cryptogr...
متن کاملDeterministic Random Number Generator Algorithm for Cryptosystem Keys
One of the crucial parameters of digital cryptographic systems is the selection of the keys used and their distribution. The randomness of the keys has a strong impact on the system’s security strength being difficult to be predicted, guessed, reproduced, or discovered by a cryptanalyst. Therefore, adequate key randomness generation is still sought for the benefit of stronger cryptosystems. Thi...
متن کاملOn a classification of finite statistical tests
Statistical tests of random sequences are often used in cryptography in order to perform some routine checks for random and pseudo-random number generators. Most of the test suites available are based on the theory of hypothesis testing which allows one to decide whether a sample has been drawn following a certain distribution. In this article, we develop a theoretical foundation of statistical...
متن کاملSecurity testing of session initiation protocol implementations
The mechanisms which enable the vast majority of computer attacks are based on design and programming errors in networked applications. The growing use of voice over IP (VOIP) phone technology makes these phone applications potential targets. We present a tool to perform security testing of VOIP applications to identify security vulnerabilities which can be exploited by an attacker. Session Ini...
متن کاملDevelopment of a Unique Biometric-based Cryptographic Key Generation with Repeatability using Brain Signals
Network security is very important when sending confidential data through the network. Cryptography is the science of hiding information, and a combination of cryptography solutions with cognitive science starts a new branch called cognitive cryptography that guarantee the confidentiality and integrity of the data. Brain signals as a biometric indicator can convert to a binary code which can be...
