Journal ArticleDOI

A method for obtaining digital signatures and public-key cryptosystems

TL;DR: An encryption method is presented with the novel property that publicly revealing an encryption key does not thereby reveal the corresponding decryption key.
Journal ArticleDOI

How to share a secret

TL;DR: This technique enables the construction of robust key management schemes for cryptographic systems that can function securely and reliably even when misfortunes destroy half the pieces and security breaches expose all but one of the remaining pieces.
Book ChapterDOI

Identity-based cryptosystems and signature schemes

TL;DR: In this article, the authors introduce a novel type of cryptographic scheme, which enables any pair of users to communicate securely and to verify each other's signatures without exchanging private or public keys, without keeping key directories, and without using the services of a third party.
Book ChapterDOI

How to prove yourself: practical solutions to identification and signature problems

TL;DR: Simple identification and signature schemes which enable any user to prove his identity and the authenticity of his messages to any other user without shared or public keys are described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Differential cryptanalysis of DES-like cryptosystems

TL;DR: A new type of cryptanalytic attack is developed which can break the reduced variant of DES with eight rounds in a few minutes on a personal computer and can break any reduced variantof DES (with up to 15 rounds) using less than 256 operations and chosen plaintexts.
