Analysis of VAES3 (FF2)

April 2, 2015
Author(s)
Morris J. Dworkin, Ray A. Perlner
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) specified three methods for format-preserving encryption (FPE) in Draft NIST Special Publication (SP) 800-38G, which was released for public comment in July, 2013. Each method was a mode of

Report on Pairing-based Cryptography

February 3, 2015
Author(s)
Dustin Moody, Rene C. Peralta, Ray A. Perlner, Andrew R. Regenscheid, Allen L. Roginsky, Lidong Chen
This report summarizes study results on pairing-based cryptography. The main purpose of the study is to form NIST’s position on standardizing and recommending pairing-based cryptography schemes currently published in research literature and standardized in

Electronic Authentication Guideline

August 29, 2013
Author(s)
William E. Burr, Donna F. Dodson, Elaine M. Newton, Ray A. Perlner, William T. Polk, Sarbari Gupta, Emad A. Nabbus
This recommendation provides technical guidelines for Federal agencies implementing electronic authentication and is not intended to constrain the development or use of standards outside of this purpose. The recommendation covers remote authentication of

Third-Round Report of the SHA-3 Cryptographic Hash Algorithm Competition

November 15, 2012
Author(s)
Shu-jen H. Chang, Ray A. Perlner, William E. Burr, Meltem Sonmez Turan, John M. Kelsey, Souradyuti Paul, Lawrence E. Bassham
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) opened a public competition on November 2, 2007 to develop a new cryptographic hash algorithm - SHA-3, which will augment the hash algorithms specified in the Federal Information Processing Standard

Status Report on the Second Round of the SHA-3 Cryptographic Hash Algorithm Competition

February 23, 2011
Author(s)
Meltem Sonmez Turan, Ray A. Perlner, Lawrence E. Bassham, William E. Burr, Dong H. Chang, Shu-jen H. Chang, Morris J. Dworkin, John M. Kelsey, Souradyuti Paul, Rene C. Peralta
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) opened a public competition on November 2, 2007 to develop a new cryptographic hash algorithm - SHA-3, which will augment the hash algorithms currently specified in the Federal Information

Privacy-Preserving DRM

April 13, 2010
Author(s)
Radia Perlman, Charles Kaufman, Ray Perlner
This paper describes and contrasts two families of schemes that enable a user to purchase digital content without revealing to anyone what item he has purchased. One of the basic schemes is based on anonymous cash, and the other on blind decryption. In

Status Report on the First Round of the SHA-3 Cryptographic Hash Algorithm Competition

September 23, 2009
Author(s)
Andrew R. Regenscheid, Ray A. Perlner, Shu-jen H. Chang, John M. Kelsey, Mridul Nandi, Souradyuti Paul
The National Institute of Standards and Technology is in the process of selecting a new cryptographic hash algorithm through a public competition. The new hash algorithm will be referred to as SHA-3 and will complement the SHA-2 hash algorithms currently

Quantum Resistant Public Key Cryptography: A Survey

April 14, 2009
Author(s)
Ray A. Perlner, David A. Cooper
Public key cryptography is widely used to secure transactions over the Internet. However, advances in quantum computers threaten to undermine the security assumptions upon which currently used public key cryptographic algorithms are based. In this paper
