About this book

The chapters in this open access book arise out of the EU Cost Action project Cryptacus, the objective of which was to improve and adapt existent cryptanalysis methodologies and tools to the ubiquitous computing framework. The cryptanalysis implemented lies along four axes: cryptographic models, cryptanalysis of building blocks, hardware and software security engineering, and security assessment of real-world systems.

The authors are top-class researchers in security and cryptography, and the contributions are of value to researchers and practitioners in these domains.

Reviews

“Each chapter can be read independently … . The book finishes with a comprehensive list of references. The book is an interesting examination of the challenges and constraints around secure development and privacy issues for the rapidly growing universe of small ubiquitous devices in the IoT.” (David B. Henderson, Computing Reviews, February 10, 2022)
