With the development of smart grid and the diversification of their applications, privacy-preserving multi-dimensional data aggregation has been widely studied because it can analyze users’ ...

The PHM generates a highly unpredictable chaotic sequence, ensuring substantial changes in ciphertext even for minor modifications in plaintext or encryption parameters. This enhances the avalanche ...

Involves decrypting two different pieces of ciphertext using two different methods (KPA and COA) to find the encryption keys and the original plaintext messages.

New York State has sued Allstate Insurance for operating websites so badly designed they would deliver personal information in plain-text to anyone that went looking for it. The data was lifted from ...

SIGN UP for Plaintext to read the whole thing, and tap Steven's unique insights and unmatched contacts for the long view on tech. Consider the email from one recent would-be codebreaker.

We also present a new structural distinguisher that can distinguish the shadow structure from a random permutation with only two plaintext/ciphertext pairs. Additionally, we demonstrate that the ...

AES-256 encrypts your data by transforming plaintext into ciphertext. It’s highly secure and is nearly impossible to crack. To put this into context, it would take approximately millions of years to ...
