Advance Encryption Standard (AES), has received significant interest over the past decade due to its performance and security level. In this paper, we propose a compact 8-bit AES crypto-processor for area constrained and low power applications where both encryption and decryption is needed. The cycle count of the design is the least among previously reported 8-bit AES architectures and the throughput is 203 Mbps. The AES core consumes 5.6k gates in 0.18 μm standard-cell CMOS technology. The power consumption of the core is 49 μW/MHz at 128 MHz which is the minimum power reported thus far  

We introduce a new secret-key cryptosystem based on 1-level QC-LDPC integer lattices. These lattices are practically implementable in high dimensions due to their low-complexity encoding and decoding algorithms. We exploit their efficient encoding and decoding algorithms to make a significant reduction in the complexity of lattice-based cryptosystems. Furthermore, the sparseness of the corresponding parity check matrix of 1-level QC-LDPC lattices and their good error performance, make them efficient choices in real world applications. In this paper, we propose a Rao-Nam like encryption scheme using 1-level QC-LDPC lattices. Some chosen-plaintext attacks and recent results on the Rao-Nam... 

In recent years, mobile social networks have largely been developed and gained considerable popularity. An approach to protecting privacy on mobile social networks is the use of encryption and access control. Good alternatives for use on mobile social networks are the Public Broadcast Encryption approach for appropriate concordance and consistency with the structure of social networks as well as the Attribute-Based Encryption owing to its capability and proper implementation of the access control policy. Accordingly, in this paper, a framework was presented based on the Public Broadcast Encryption and Attribute-Based Encryption. Using proxies, we outsourced some of these operations in the... 

While the Internet of Things (IoT) shapes the future of the Internet, communications among nodes must be secured by employing cryptographic schemes such as public-key encryption (PKE). However, classic PKE schemes, such as RSA and elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) suffer from both high complexity and vulnerability to quantum attacks. During the past decade, post-quantum schemes based on the learning with errors (LWEs) problem have gained high attention due to the lower complexity among PKE schemes. In addition to resistance against theoretical (quantum and classic) attacks, every practical implementation of any cryptosystem must also be evaluated against different side-channel attacks such...
