Bücher der Reihe Information Security and Cryptography

Block ciphers encrypt blocks of plaintext, messages, into blocks of ciphertext under the action of a secret key, and the process of encryption is reversed by decryption which uses the same user-supplied key.

Signcryption schemes combine the features of digital signature schemes with those of public-key encryption schemes and aim to provide security guarantees in a way that is provably correct and significantly less computationally expensive than the "encrypt-then-sign" method most commonly adopted in public-key cryptography.

This book establishes, for the first time, the potential application of NCO implementations to cryptographic primitives such as one-way functions, pseudorandom generators, encryption schemes and digital signatures. The author explores numerous key issues.

Part III deals with fault analysis in public key cryptography, with chapters dedicated to classical RSA and RSA-CRT implementations, elliptic curve cryptosystems and countermeasures using fault detection, devices resilient to fault injection attacks, lattice-based fault attacks on signatures, and fault attacks on pairing-based cryptography.
