On McEliece-Type Cryptosystems Using Self-Dual Codes With Large Minimum Weight

IEEE Access, 2023
One of the Round 3 Finalists in the NIST post-quantum cryptography call is the Classic McEliece cryptosystem. Although it is one of the most secure cryptosystems, the large size of its public key remains a practical limitation. In this work, we propose a

Leaky McEliece: Secret Key Recovery From Highly Erroneous Side-Channel Information

Transactions on Cryptographic Hardware and Embedded Systems
The McEliece cryptosystem is a strong contender for post-quantum schemes, including key encapsulation for confidentiality of key exchanges in network protocols.

Post-Quantum Biometric Authentication Based on Homomorphic Encryption and Classic McEliece

Applied Sciences, 2023
Homomorphic encryption is a powerful mechanism that allows sensitive data, such as biometric data, to be compared in a protected way, revealing only the comparison result when the private key is known.

Secure and Compact: A New Variant of McEliece Cryptosystem

IEEE Access
This paper introduces a variant of the McEliece cryptosystem and employs the $(C_{1}, C_{1} + C_{2})$ -construction to generate a new code from two arbitrary linear codes. We propose an efficient hard-decision decoding algorithm for linear codes derived

Efficient ASIC Architecture for Low Latency Classic McEliece Decoding

Transactions on Cryptographic Hardware and Embedded Systems
Post-quantum cryptography addresses the increasing threat that quantum computing poses to modern communication systems. Among the available “quantum-resistant” systems, the Classic McEliece key encapsulation mechanism (KEM) is positioned as a ...

Classic McEliece on the ARM Cortex-M4

Transactions on Cryptographic Hardware and Embedded Systems, 2021
This paper presents a constant-time implementation of Classic McEliece for ARM Cortex-M4. Specifically, our target platform is stm32f4-Discovery, a development board on which the amount of SRAM is not even large enough to hold the public key of the ...

Full Key-Recovery Cubic-Time Template Attack on Classic McEliece Decapsulation

Transactions on Cryptographic Hardware and Embedded Systems
Classic McEliece is one of the three code-based candidates in the fourth round of the NIST post-quantum cryptography standardization process in the Key Encapsulation Mechanism category. As such, its decapsulation algorithm is used to recover the session

Variations of the McEliece Cryptosystem [PDF]

, 2017
Two variations of the McEliece cryptosystem are presented. The first one is based on a relaxation of the column permutation in the classical McEliece scrambling process. This is done in such a way that the Hamming weight of the error, added in the encryption process, can be controlled so that efficient decryption remains possible.

A customizable series of microbiology lab activities exploring a foodborne outbreak to enhance student recruitment to a biology program [PDF]

Journal of Microbiology & Biology Education
As educators at a small university, we are constantly trying to find new and innovative ways of getting high school students interested in a degree in Biology at our school. Thus, we designed an outreach program to draw interested high school students to
