The final quarter of the 20th century has seen the establishment of a global computational infrastructure. This and the advent of programming languages such as Java, supporting mobile distributed computing, has posed a significant challenge to computer sciences. The infrastructure can support commerce, medicine and government, but only if communications and computing can be secured against catastrophic failure and malicious interference.
Crypto '91 was the eleventh in a series of workshops on cryptology sponsoredby the International Association for Cryptologic Research and was held in Santa Barbara, California, in August 1991. This volume contains a full paper or an extended abstract for each of the 39 talks presented at the workshop. All theoretical and practical aspects of cryptology are represented, including: protocol design and analysis, combinatorics and authentication, secret sharing and information theory, cryptanalysis, complexity theory, cryptographic schemas based on number theory, pseudorandomness, applications and implementations, viruses, public-key cryptosystems, and digital signatures.
Software developers need to worry about security as never before. They need clear guidance on safe coding practices, and that’s exactly what this book delivers. The book does not delve deep into theory, or rant about the politics of security. Instead, it clearly and simply lays out the most common threats that programmers need to defend against. It then shows programmers how to make their defense. The book takes a broad focus, ranging over SQL injection, worms and buffer overflows, password security, and more. It sets programmers on the path towards successfully defending against the entire gamut of security threats that they might face.
Practitioners and researchers seeking a concise, accessible introduction to secure multi-party computation which quickly enables them to build practical systems or conduct further research will find this essential reading.
This book provides information on theoretically secure multiparty computation (MPC) and secret sharing, and the fascinating relationship between the two concepts.
In the setting of multiparty computation, sets of two or more parties with p- vate inputs wish to jointly compute some (predetermined) function of their inputs. The computation should be such that the outputs received by the parties are correctly distributed, and furthermore, that the privacy of each party’s input is preserved as much as possible, even in the presence of - versarial behavior. This encompasses any distributed computing task and includes computations as simple as coin-tossing and broadcast, and as c- plex as electronic voting, electronic auctions, electronic cash schemes and anonymous transactions. The feasibility (and infeasibility) of multiparty c- putation has been extensively studied, resulting in a rather comprehensive understanding of what can and cannot be securely computed, and under what assumptions. The theory of cryptography in general, and secure multiparty computation in particular, is rich and elegant. Indeed, the mere fact that it is possible to actually achieve the aforementioned task is both surprising and intriguing.
This tutorial volume is based on a summer school on cryptology and data security held in Aarhus, Denmark, in July 1998. The ten revised lectures presented are devoted to core topics in modern cryptololgy. In accordance with the educational objectives of the school, elementary introductions are provided to central topics, various examples are given of the problems encountered, and this is supplemented with solutions, open problems, and reference to further reading. The resulting book is ideally suited as an up-to-date introductory text for students and IT professionals interested in modern cryptology.
Cryptography is a field that is constantly advancing, due to exponential growth in new technologies within the past few decades. Applying strategic algorithms to cryptic issues can help save time and energy in solving the expanding problems within this field. Algorithmic Strategies for Solving Complex Problems in Cryptography is an essential reference source that discusses the evolution and current trends in cryptology, and it offers new insight into how to use strategic algorithms to aid in solving intricate difficulties within this domain. Featuring relevant topics such as hash functions, homomorphic encryption schemes, two party computation, and integer factoring, this publication is ideal for academicians, graduate students, engineers, professionals, and researchers interested in expanding their knowledge of current trends and techniques within the cryptology field.
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the Third International Conference on Security in Communication Networks, SCN 2002, held in Amalfi, Italy in September 2002. The 24 revised full papers presented together with two invited papers were carefully selected from 90 submissions during two rounds of reviewing and revision. The papers are organized in topical sections on forward security, foundations of cryptography, key management, cryptanalysis, systems security, digital signature schemes, zero knowledge, and information theory and secret sharing.
