Entropy Bootstrapping for Wireless Embedded Systems
Javier Blanco-Romero, Florina Almenares Mendoza, Daniel Díaz-Sánchez +1
Cryptographic protocols require unpredictable randomness at first boot, yet wireless sensors often wake with uninitialized hardware or noise sources running in unverified operating…
Post-Quantum Entropy as a Service for Embedded Systems
Javier Blanco-Romero, Yuri Melissa Garcia-Niño, Florina Almenares Mendoza +3
Embedded cryptography stands or falls on entropy quality, yet small devices have few trustworthy sources and little tolerance for heavyweight protocols. We build a Quantum Entropy…
On the Practical Feasibility of Harvest-Now, Decrypt-Later Attacks
Javier Blanco-Romero, Florina Almenares Mendoza, Carlos García Rubio +2
Harvest-now, decrypt-later (HN-DL) attacks threaten today's encrypted communications by archiving ciphertext until a quantum computer can break the underlying key exchange. This pa…
