S-HASH: A Crack Towards Cryptographic Hash Functions

In this paper we present results of uniform logical cryptanalysis method applied to cryptographic hash function CubeHash. During the last decade, some of the most popular cryptographic hash functions were broken. Therefore, in 2007, National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), announced an international competition for a new Hash Standard called SHA-3. Only 14 candidates passed first two selection rounds and CubeHash is one of them. A great effort is made in their analysis and comparison. Uniform logical cryptanalysis presents an interesting method for this purpose. Universal, adjustable to almost any cryptographic hash function, very fast and reliable, it presents a promising method in the world of cryptanalysis.

Cryptographic Hash Functions

Cryptographic Hash Functions are used to achieve a number of Security goals like Message Authentication, Message Integrity, and are also used to implement Digital Signatures (Non-repudiation), and Entity Authentication. This chapter discusses the construction of hash functions and the various attacks on the Hash functions. The Message Authentication Codes are similar to the Hash functions except that they require a key for producing the message digest or hash. Authenticated Encryption is a scheme that combines hashing and Encryption. The Various types of hash functions like one-way hash function, Collision Resistant hash function and Universal hash functions are also discussed in this chapter.

Cryptographic Hash Functions

The paper gives an insight on cryptography within digital money used in electronic commerce. The combination of digital currencies with cryptography is named as cryptocurrencies or cryptocoins. Though this technique came into existence years ago, it is bound to have a great future due to its flexibility and very less or nil transaction costs. The concept of cryptocurrency is not new in digital world and is already gaining subtle importance in electronic commerce market. This technology can bring down various risks that may have occurred in usage of physical currencies. The transaction of cryptocurrencies are protected with strong cryptographic hash functions that ensure the safe sending and receiving of assets within the transaction chain or blockchain in a Peer-to-Peer network. The paper discusses the merits and demerits of this technology with a wide range of applications that use cryptocurrency.
