Distributed Key-Manager Verification

December 2010

This package contains the F# and F7 source files to aid in the verification of a distributed key-management system. This new component implements a data-protection API for groups of clients. To enable long-term data protection, it supports cryptographic agility so cryptography algorithms and policies can evolve for protecting fresh data while preserving access to old…

Lattice Cryptography Library

Established: April 19, 2016

LatticeCrypto is a high-performance and portable software library that implements lattice-based cryptographic algorithms. The first release of the library provides an implementation of lattice-based key exchange with security based on the Ring Learning With Errors (R-LWE) problem using new algorithms…

SIDH Library

Established: April 16, 2016

SIDH (Supersingular Isogeny Diffie Hellman) Library is a fast and portable software library that implements a new suite of algorithms for supersingular isogeny Diffie-Hellman key exchange [1]. The chosen parameters aim to provide 128 bits of security against attackers running a…

FourQlib

Established: August 26, 2015

FourQlib is an efficient and portable math library that provides functions for computing essential elliptic curve operations on a new, high-performance curve called "FourQ". This curve targets the 128-bit security level and supports computations that are significantly faster than any…

MSR Elliptic Curve Cryptography Library

Established: June 27, 2014

MSR ECCLib is an efficient cryptography library that provides functions for computing essential elliptic curve operations on a new set of high-security curves.  All computations on secret data exhibit regular, constant-time execution, providing protection against timing and cache attacks.  The…

MSR JavaScript Cryptography Library

Established: June 17, 2014

JavaScript cryptographic algorithm implementations suitable for use in all cloud services The MSR JavaScript Cryptography Library has been developed for use with cloud services in an HTML5 compliant and forward-looking manner. The algorithms are exposed via the W3C WebCrypto interface, and…

U-Prove

Established: February 25, 2012

U-Prove components are released in the Security and Cryptography Incubations Quarterly Technology Drop.   Overview A U-Prove token is a new type of credential similar to a PKI certificate that can encode attributes of any type, but with two important…

Verifiable Computing

Verifiable computation schemes enable a client to outsource the computation of a function F on various inputs to an untrusted worker, and then verify the correctness of the returned results. Critically, the outsourcing and verification procedures must be more efficient…
