### 1-out-of-2 OT from Random 1-out-of-2 OT

Last week I came upon this problem in my h.w.: Let $OT^m$ denote 1-out-of-2 oblivious transfer of $m$ bit inputs. Let $RandOT^m$ denote the following primitive: The sender’s input ...

### Homomorphic multiplication by a scalar

Few homomorphic encryption schemes like Paillier , Ring-LWE support homomorphic multiplication operation by a scalar apart from additive homomorphic property. Loosely they could be defined as below ...

The CAESAR candidate Deoxys is based on a tweakable block cipher that seems to be a strict improvement over AES, in that it is a tweakable cipher resistant to related-key attack. The mode proposed ...

### Where is the mistake in my RSA by-hand calculation?

Like several previous askers, I seem to have made a mistake in my RSA calculation, but despite going back over it three times, I cannot spot it. I picked 1000003 and 6000011 as my primes, ...

### Why is DSA falling out of favor?

Windows abandoned DSA rather than extend it to support > 1024 bits; but otherwise I cannot find a reason why DSA would be less desirable. I see in SSH the disabling it by default with a completely ...

### Is AES-256 bit encryption secure against this kind of attack? [duplicate]

Recently I came across this article. http://www.cs.tau.ac.il/~tromer/acoustic/ Could this put all computers at risk for decryption?

### Can I get successful signature verification with just altering message and signature?

Assuming I can modify a message and also modify the verification signature, and I also have the public-key but not the private-key. Can I create a message that can be verified with a signature that I ...

### Determining an encryption key when ciphertext and algorithm are known

I would like to know how I can tell that I have successfully performed an exhaustive search attack on an encrypted message. Here are the conditions: key is 40 bit I am aware of the cipher text and ...

I was looking through different hash methods the other day and was curious as to what the advantages or disadvantages of using separate chaining over linear or quadratic probing. I know that with ...
