Download or read book The Spartan Scytale and Developments in Ancient and Modern Cryptography written by Martine Diepenbroek and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2023-11-16 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a comprehensive review and reassessment of the classical sources describing the cryptographic Spartan device known as the scytale. Challenging the view promoted by modern historians of cryptography which look at the scytale as a simple and impractical 'stick', Diepenbroek argues for the scytale's deserved status as a vehicle for secret communication in the ancient world. By way of comparison, Diepenbroek demonstrates that the cryptographic principles employed in the Spartan scytale show an encryption and coding system that is no less complex than some 20th-century transposition ciphers. The result is that, contrary to the accepted point of view, scytale encryption is as complex and secure as other known ancient ciphers. Drawing on salient comparisons with a selection of modern transposition ciphers (and their historical predecessors), the reader is provided with a detailed overview and analysis of the surviving classical sources that similarly reveal the potential of the scytale as an actual cryptographic and steganographic tool in ancient Sparta in order to illustrate the relative sophistication of the Spartan scytale as a practical device for secret communication. This helps to establish the conceptual basis that the scytale would, in theory, have offered its ancient users a secure method for secret communication over long distances.

Download or read book Efficient Secure Two Party Protocols written by Carmit Hazay and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-11-02 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

Several of such applications have been difficult to realize because of many interconnections problems. To fulfill their large range of applications different kinds of networks need to collaborate and wired and next generation wireless systems should be integrated in order to develop high performance computing solutions to problems arising from the complexities of these networks. This book covers the theory, design and applications of computer networks, distributed computing and information systems.
Download or read book Secure Multi Party Computation written by M.M. Prabhakaran and published by IOS Press. This book was released on 2013-01-17 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Secure Multi-Party Computation (MPC) is one of the most powerful tools developed by modern cryptography: it facilitates collaboration among mutually distrusting parties by implementing a virtual trusted party. Despite the remarkable potential of such a tool, and decades of active research in the theoretical cryptography community, it remains a relatively inaccessible and lesser-known concept outside of this field. Only a handful of resources are available to students and researchers wishing to learn more about MPC. The editors of this book have assembled a comprehensive body of basic and advanced material on MPC, authored by experts in the field. It will serve as a starting point for those interested in pursuing research related to MPC, whether they are students learning about it for the first time or researchers already working in the area. The book begins with tutorials introducing the concept of MPC and zero-knowledge proofs, an important theoretical platform where many of the concepts central to MPC were shaped. The remaining chapters deal with classical as well as recent MPC protocols, and a variety of related topics. Each chapter is self-contained and can be read independently of the others.

Download or read book Broadband Quantum Cryptography written by Daniel Rogers and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-06-01 with total page 83 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quantum cryptography is a rapidly developing field that draws from a number of disciplines, from quantum optics to information theory to electrical engineering. By combining some fundamental quantum mechanical principles of single photons with various aspects of information theory, quantum cryptography represents a fundamental shift in the basis for security from numerical complexity to the fundamental physical nature of the communications channel. As such, it promises the holy grail of data security: theoretically unbreakable encryption. Of course, implementing quantum cryptography in real broadband communications systems poses some unique challenges, including generating single photons, distilling random keys from the quantum key distribution process, and maintaining security at both the theoretical and practical level. Overall, quantum cryptography has a place in the history of secret keeping as a novel and potentially useful paradigm shift in the approach to broadband data encryption.

Other sessions deal with government projects, law and policy issues, freedom and privacy news, analysts’ opinions, standards, ASPs, biotech and healthcare, nance, telecom and wireless security, developers, new products, implementers, threats, RSA products, VPNs, as well as cryp- graphy and enterprise tutorials. RSA Conference 2001 is expected to continue the tradition and remain the largest computer security event ever staged: 250 vendors, 10,000 visitors and 3,000 class-going attendees are expected in San Francisco next year. I am very grateful to the 22 members of the program committee for their hard work. The program committee received 65 submissions (one of which was later withdrawn) for which review was conducted electronically; almost all papers had at least two reviews although most had three or more. Eventually, we accepted the 33 papers that appear in these proceedings. Revisions were not checked on their scienti c aspects and some authors will write nal versions of their papers for publication in refereed journals. As is usual, authors bear full scienti c and paternity responsibilities for the contents of their papers.

Download or read book Cryptography and Network Security written by V.K. Jain and published by KHANNA PUBLISHING HOUSE. This book was released on 2013 with total page 604 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book has been written keeping in mind syllabi of all Indian universities and optimized the contents of the book accordingly. These students are the book's primary audience. Cryptographic concepts are explained using diagrams to illustrate component relationships and data flows. At every step aim is to examine the relationship between the security measures and the vulnerabilities they address. This will guide readers in safely applying cryptographic techniques. This book is also intended for people who know very little about cryptography but need to make technical decisions about cryptographic security. many people face this situation when they need to transmit business data safely over the Internet. This often includes people responsible for the data, like business analysts and managers. as well as those who must install and maintain the protections, like information systems administrators and managers. This book requires no prior knowledge of cryptography or related mathematics. Descriptions of low-level crypto mechanisms focus on presenting the concepts instead of the details. This book is intended as a reference book for professional cryptographers, presenting the techniques and algorithms of greatest interest of the current practitioner, along with the supporting motivation and background material. It also provides a comprehensive source from which to learn cryptography, serving both students and instructors. In addition, the rigorous treatment, breadth, and extensive bibliographic material should make it an important reference for research professionals. While composing this book my intention was not to introduce a collection of new techniques and protocols, but rather to selectively present techniques from those currently available in the public domain.
