Cryptography, in particular public-key cryptography, has emerged in the last 20 years as an
important discipline that is not only the subject of an enormous amount of research, but …

Classic cryptographic protocols based on user-chosen keys allow an attacker to mount
password-guessing attacks. A combination of asymmetric (public-key) and symmetric (secret …

We discuss two-party mutual authentication protocols providing authenticated key
exchange, focusing on those using asymmetric techniques. A simple, efficient protocol …

Elliptic curves have been intensively studied in algebraic geometry and number theory. In
recent years they have been used in devising efficient algorithms for factoring integers and …

This paper presents a new password authentication and key-exchange protocol suitable for
authenticating users and exchanging keys over an untrusted network. The new protocol …

This book is intended as a text for a course on cryptography with emphasis on algebraic
methods. It is written so as to be accessible to graduate or advanced undergraduate …

We present the first known implementation of elliptic curve cryptography over F/sub 2p/for
sensor networks based on the 8-bit, 7.3828-MHz MICA2 mote. Through instrumentation of …

The number field sieve is an algorithm to factor integers of the form r, 4-s for small positive r
and s. This note is intended as a'report on work in progress' on this algorithm. We informally …

В статье рассмотрены некоторые элементы теории чисел и показано, как они
используются в современной криптографии. В качестве примеров выбраны наиболее …
