Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsOmega Network Hash ConstructionChai Wen Chuah, Azman SamsudinProblem statement: Cryptographic hash functions are important cryptographic primitives. They are commonly used for data integrity checking and data authentication. Most of the cryptographic hash functions are based on the Merkle-Damgård construction. The basic Merkle-Damgård construction runs over the input sequentially, which can lead to problems when the input size is large since the computation time increases linearly. Approach: Therefore, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,123 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBlockchain: Methods, Applications and Technology ProgressCheryl Ann Alexander, Lidong WangBlockchain is gaining great attentions in various applications. Blockchain is a shared ledger concept which is highly secure due to the nature of its construction. It is immutable, needs a consensus to add a block to the chain, is held secure by a hash function and is visible to all participants within the blockchain. The methods, impacts and benefits of … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 2 Feb 2019 · 8,443 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordA Practical and Secure Hash Function-Based Password Authentication SchemeMuhammad Helmi Ali, Eddie Shahril Ismail, Firdaus Mohamad HamzahIn this study, we propose a practical and secure hash function-based password authentication scheme using smart cards. Our proposed scheme offers some advantages and interesting features. Firstly, the scheme does not require a verification table and is secure against the replay attacks, an attack that most of the existing schemes suffer. Secondly, any user of the scheme be allowed to … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 15, Issue 7 · 17 Jul 2019 · 7,738 accessesView PDFCite
