Dr. Rogaway's papers cover topics including:
  • Probabilistic Signature Scheme
  • OCB mode
    OCB mode
    OCB mode is a mode of operation for cryptographic block ciphers.-Encryption and authentication:It was designed to provide both authentication and privacy. It is essentially a scheme for integrating a Message Authentication Code into the operation of a block cipher...

     and DES-X
    DES-X
    In cryptography, DES-X is a variant on the DES block cipher intended to increase the complexity of a brute force attack using a technique called key whitening....

  • Random oracle
    Random oracle
    In cryptography, a random oracle is an oracle that responds to every query with a random response chosen uniformly from its output domain, except that for any specific query, it responds the same way every time it receives that query...

  • Zero-knowledge proof
    Zero-knowledge proof
    In cryptography, a zero-knowledge proof or zero-knowledge protocol is an interactive method for one party to prove to another that a statement is true, without revealing anything other than the veracity of the statement....

  • SEAL
    SEAL (cipher)
    In cryptography, SEAL is a very fast stream cipher optimised for machines with a 32-bit word size and plenty of RAM. SEAL is actually a pseudorandom function family in that it can easily generate arbitrary portions of the keystream without having to start from the beginning...

  • CMAC
    CMAC
    In cryptography, CMAC is a block cipher-based message authentication code algorithm. It may be used to provide assurance of the authenticity and, hence, the integrity of binary data...

  • UMAC
    UMAC
    In cryptography, a message authentication code based on universal hashing, or UMAC, is a type of message authentication code calculated choosing a hash function from a class of hash functions according to some secret process and applying it to the message. The resulting digest or fingerprint is...
