Chapter 1

Multidisciplinary in Cryptology (pages 1-28)

Sattar B. Sadkhan Al Maliky, Nidaa A. Abbas

To reach the high depths of knowledge and expertise that are required nowadays, scientists focus their attention on minute areas of study. However, the most complex problems faced by scientists still need the application of different...

Chapter 2

Soft Computing-Based Information Security (pages 29-60)

Eva Volna, Tomas Sochor, Clyde Meli, Zuzana Kominkova Oplatkova

This chapter deals with using soft computing methods in information security. It is engaged in two big areas: (1) information security and spam detection and (2) cryptography. The latter field is covered by a proposal of an...

Chapter 3

Quantum Key Distribution Networks (pages 61-96)

Sufyan T. Faraj Al-Janabi

The aim of this chapter is to emphasize the multidisciplinary nature of the research in the field of Quantum Key Distribution Networks (QKDNs). Such networks consist of a number of nodes that can perform security protocols protected...

Chapter 4

Chaos-Based Cryptography for Voice Secure Wireless Communication (pages 97-132)

Sattar B. Sadkhan Al Maliky, Rana Saad

Chaos theory was originally developed by mathematicians and physicists. The theory deals with the behaviors of nonlinear dynamic systems. Chaos theory has desirable features, such as deterministic, nonlinear, irregular, long-term...

Chapter 5

Cryptography Based on Error Correcting Codes: A Survey (pages 133-156)

Marek Repka, Pierre-Louis Cayrel

Breaking contemporary cryptographic algorithms using any binary computer has at least sub-exponential complexity. However, if a quantum computer was used effectively, then our asymmetric cryptography would not be secure anymore....

Chapter 6

Fuzzy Logic-Based Security Evaluation of Stream Cipher (pages 157-178)

Sattar B. Sadkhan Al Maliky, Sabiha F. Jawad

The main aim of this chapter is to provide a security evaluation method based on fuzzy logic “for a pseudo-random sequences used (mainly) in stream cipher systems. The designed Fuzzy rules consider two main parameters, which are the...

Chapter 7

Information Security-Based Nano- and Bio-Cryptography (pages 179-199)

W. K. Hamoudi, Nadia M. G. Al-Saidi

Information security can provide confidentiality, integrity, and availability for society to benefit efficiently from data storage and open networks. Free space communication networks suffer from adversaries who interfere with data...

Chapter 8

ICA and PCA-Based Cryptology (pages 200-217)

Sattar B. Sadkhan Al Maliky, Nidaa A. Abbas

Blind Source Separation (BSS) represented by Independent Component Analysis (ICA) has been used in many fields such as communications and biomedical engineering. Its application to image and speech encryption, however, has been rare....

Chapter 9

An Area-Efficient Composite Field Inverter for Elliptic Curve Cryptosystems (pages 218-237)

M. M. Wong, M. L. D. Wong

This chapter presents a new area-efficient composite field inverter of the form GF(q1) with q=2n.m suitable for the hardware realization of an elliptic curve (EC) cryptosystem. Considering both the security aspect and the hardware...

Chapter 10

RSA-Public Key Cryptosystems Based on Quadratic Equations in Finite Field (pages 238-258)

Sattar B. Sadkhan Al Maliky, Luay H. Al-Siwidi

The importance of Public Key Cryptosystems (PKCs) in the cryptography field is well known. They represent a great revolution in this field. The PKCs depend mainly on mathematical problems, like factorization problem, and a trapdoor...

Chapter 11

Cryptographic Key Distribution and Management (pages 259-285)

Martin Rublík

Cryptographic key distribution and management is one of the most important steps in the process of securing data by utilizing encryption. Problems related to cryptographic key distribution and management are hard to solve and easy to...

Chapter 12

New Developments in Quasigroup-Based Cryptography (pages 286-317)

Aleksandra Mileva

This chapter offers an overview of new developments in quasigroup-based cryptography, especially of new defined quasigroup-based block ciphers and stream ciphers, hash functions and message authentication codes, PRNGs, public key...

Chapter 13

Influence of the Intra-Modal Facial Information for an Identification Approach (pages 318-342)

Carlos M. Travieso, Marcos del Pozo-Baños, Jaime R. Ticay-Rivas, Jesús B. Alonso

This chapter presents a comprehensive study on the influence of the intra-modal facial information for an identification approach. It was developed and implemented a biometric identification system by merging different...

Chapter 14

Biometrics: Identification and Security (pages 343-364)

Muzhir Shaban Al-Ani

It is important to know that absolute security does not exist, and the main goal of the security system is to reach an optimal approach that satisfies the customer requirements. Biometrics is a small part of the security system that...

Chapter 15

Routing Based on Security (pages 365-380)

I. A. Almerhag

Even though it is an essential requirement of any computer system, there is not yet a standard method to measure data security, especially when sending information over a network. However, the most common technique used to achieve...
