This ITL Bulletin summarizes the recently published NIST Special Publication (SP) 800-55, Security Metrics Guide for Information Technology Systems, by Marianne Swanson, Nadya Bartol, John Sabato, Joan Hash, and Laurie Graffo. NIST SP 800-55 provides

An Ultrasonic Absolute Power Transfer Standard

March 1, 1984
Author(s)
Steven E. Fick, Donald G. Eitzen, Carl E. Tschiegg, Franklin R. Breckenridge
In response to increased interest in the use of calibrated sources of ultrasonic energy, we have developed a system comprising components grouped to facilitate the accurate transfer of calibration. Electronic circuitry supplied with and built into each

SARD: A Software Assurance Reference Dataset

Author(s)
Paul E. Black
Software assurance tools examine code for problems. To test such tools, we need programs with known bugs as ground truth. The Software Assurance Reference Dataset (SARD) is a publicly accessible collection of over 100,000 test cases in different

Abstract—In response to the looming crisis in global energy consumption required for advanced computing applications, the United States Department of Energy (DOE) Advanced Materials and Manufacturing Technology Office (AMMTO) is leading a national effort

Experimental Low-Latency Device-Independent Quantum Randomness

January 10, 2020
Author(s)
Yanbao Zhang, Lynden K. Shalm, Joshua C. Bienfang, Martin J. Stevens, Michael D. Mazurek, Sae Woo Nam, Carlos Abellan, Waldimar Amaya, Morgan Mitchell, Honghao Fu, Carl A. Miller, Alan Mink, Emanuel H. Knill
Applications of randomness such as private key generation and public randomness beacons require small blocks of certified random bits on demand. Device-independent quantum randomness can produce such random bits, but existing quantum-proof protocols and

Total Break of the SRP Encryption Scheme

December 23, 2017
Author(s)
Ray A. Perlner, Albrecht R. Petzoldt, Daniel C. Smith-Tone
Multivariate Public Key Cryptography (MPKC) is one of the main candidates for secure communication in a post-quantum era. Recently, Yasuda and Sakurai proposed in [7] a new multivariate encryption scheme called SRP, which combines the Square encryption
