Considered as the main element for building Internet of Things, Radio Frequency
IDentification (RFID) is a non-contact automatic identification technology that identifies the …

Hash functions serve as the fingerprint of a message. They also serve as an authentication
mechanism in many applications. Nowadays, hash functions are widely used in blockchain …

Since the classical hash function widely used are costly for resource constrained devices, in
this paper we propose a new lightweight hash function LNHASH through Cellular Automata …

The cryptographic hash functions are the most fundamental cryptographic concept. These
functions are used as basic building blocks for digital signatures and message …

In this paper, we propose a new keyed one-way double-block-length hash function by using
Non-linear Cellular Automata (CA), named as NCASH. The structure of NCASH mainly …

In today's world of pervasive computing, all the devices have become smart. The need for
securing these devices becomes a need of the hour. The traditional cryptographic …

The great revolution of technology and its fast growth have led to a cyber space increasingly
vulnerable to cyber-attacks. For this reason, cyber security becomes paramount to protect …

In this work, we study the security analysis of a newly proposed Non-linear Cellular
Automata-based Hash function, NCASH. The uncomplicated structure of this double-block …

In order to complement the previous hash standards SHA-1, SHA-2, NIST organizes an
open competition in search for new hash algorithm to be named SHA-3. After thorough …

The use of cryptographic systems and protocols became indispensable to guarantee the
information security goals, which fall in the purpose of this thesis. New symmetric …
