October 25, 2021 -- Authenticated encryption (AE) with Associate Data (AD) schemes are used to protect simultaneously both the confidentiality and authenticity of data. The most popular AEAD scheme is ...

Lightweight cryptography is essential for constrained embedded devices, which require secure but resource-efficient primitives that balance area, power consumption, latency, and throughput. To address ...

Given recent attacks against older, commonly-used encryption modes RC4 and CBC, the Google team began implementing new algorithms – ChaCha 20 for symmetric encryption and Poly1305 for authentication – ...

Interconnected and latency-sensitive systems require cryptographic designs that deliver authenticated confidentiality with predictable cost on constrained hardware. This work presents CryptoShield, a ...

Two of ASCON's native features highlighted in NIST's announcement are AEAD (Authenticated Encryption with Associated Data) and hashing. AEAD is an encryption mode that provides confidentiality and ...

The emergence of mobile platforms such as iOS and Android have presented a number of challenges in terms of security. Not much can be done about some of these, like users leaving their phones in bars.
