Random numbers are a fundamental resource in science and engineering with important
applications in simulation and cryptography. The inherent randomness at the core of …

In this paper we perform a review of elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) as it is used in
practice today in order to reveal unique mistakes and vulnerabilities that arise in …

We report on our discovery of an algorithmic flaw in the construction of primes for RSA key
generation in a widely-used library of a major manufacturer of cryptographic hardware. The …

Cloud services keep gaining popularity despite the security concerns. While non-sensitive
data is easily trusted to cloud, security critical data and applications are not. The main …

Cryptographic API misuses, such as exposed secrets, predictable random numbers, and
vulnerable certificate verification, seriously threaten software security. The vision of …

We introduce a new lattice basis reduction algorithm with approximation guarantees
analogous to the LLL algorithm and practical performance that far exceeds the current state …

In December 2015, Juniper Networks announced multiple security vulnerabilities stemming
from unauthorized code in ScreenOS, the operating system for their NetScreen VPN routers …

In this paper we present a novel true random number generator based on high-precision
edge sampling. We use two novel techniques to increase the throughput and reduce the …

During the last decade, constant-time cryptographic software has quickly transitioned from
an academic construct to a concrete security requirement for real-world libraries. Most of …

We provide a formal treatment of backdoored pseudorandom generators (PRGs). Here a
saboteur chooses a PRG instance for which she knows a trapdoor that allows prediction of …
