Multi-Factor Authentication: A Survey

Aleksandr Ometov, Sergey Bezzateev, Niko Mäkitalo et al. · 5 Jan 2018

Today, digitalization decisively penetrates all the sides of the modern society. One of the key enablers to maintain this process secure is authentication. It covers many different areas of a hyper-connected world, including online payments, communications, access right management, etc. This work sheds light on the evolution of authentication systems towards Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) starting…

Power Side-Channel Attack Analysis: A Review of 20 Years of Study for the Layman

Mark Randolph, William Diehl · 19 May 2020

Physical cryptographic implementations are vulnerable to so-called side-channel attacks, in which sensitive information can be recovered by analyzing physical phenomena of a device during operation. In this survey, we trace the development of power side-channel analysis of cryptographic implementations over the last twenty years. We provide a foundation by exploring, in depth, several concepts, such…

A Survey of Post-Quantum Cryptography: Start of a New Race

Duc-Thuan Dam, Thai-Ha Tran, Van‐Phuc Hoang et al. · 14 Aug 2023

Information security is a fundamental and urgent issue in the digital transformation era. Cryptographic techniques and digital signatures have been applied to protect and authenticate relevant information. However, with the advent of quantum computers and quantum algorithms, classical cryptographic techniques have been in danger of collapsing because quantum computers can solve complex problems in polynomial…

Provably Secure Covert Communication on Blockchain
