Optimal locally repairable codes via elliptic curves by Li, Xudong, Ma, Liming, Xing, Chaoping

“…Constructing locally repairable codes achieving Singleton-type bound (we call them optimal codes in this paper) is a challenging task and has attracted great attention in the last few years. Tamo and Barg first gave a breakthrough result in this topic by cleverly considering subcodes of Reed-Solomon codes. …”

A finer-grain analysis of the leakage (non) resilience of OCB by Berti, Francesco, Bhasin, Shivam, Breier, Jakub, Hou, Xiaolu, Poussier, Romain, Standaert, François-Xavier, Udvarhelyi, Balasz

“…We start from trivial key recoveries in settings where the mode can be attacked with standard Differential Power Analysis (DPA) against some block cipher calls in its execution (namely, initialization, processing of associated data or last incomplete block and decryption). These attacks imply that at least these parts must be strongly protected thanks to countermeasures like masking. …”
