This thesis establishes a specific network formation game and suggests a network stab...
ANALYSIS OF TWO VERSATILE MPC FRAMEWORKS MP-SPDZ AND MPYC Aykurt, Fatih; Yayla, Oğuz; Department of Cryptography (2023-12-07) Using secure multi-party computing protocols (MPC), a group of participants who distrust one another can securely compute any function of their shared secret inputs. Participants exchange these inputs in a manner similar t...
A STUDY ON CRYSTALS-KYBER AND ITS MASKED IMPLEMENTATIONS Özeren, Sıla; Yayla, Oğuz; Department of Cryptography (2023-10) As we transition into the quantum computing era, the security of widely-used cryptographic algorithms is facing significant challenges. This is attributable to Shor's algorithm, enabling quantum computers to break conventi...
Flexible hardware design for elliptic curve method of integer factorization Solmaz, Mustafa Hakan; Akyıldız, Ersan; Department of Cryptography (2023-9-27) In most of the electronic communication devices that surround us, advanced cryp- tographic algorithm needs are implemented on special hardware. These specialized hardware are divided into application-specific integrated ci...
A NEW EFFICIENT TMVP ALGORITHM AND AN APPLICATION FOR POST-QUANTUM CRYPTOGRAPHY Gökce, Anıl Burak; Yayla, Oğuz; Department of Cryptography (2023-9-25) With the advancements in quantum computing, traditional cryptography is considered to have little life in the future. That's why NIST initiated a Post-quantum cryptography-related project in order to standardize quantum-se...
Secure Model Verification and Privacy Preservation with ZK-SNARKs and Neural Networks Seriner Gerenli, Dursun Oylum; Özbudak, Ferruh; Department of Cryptography (2023-9-11) Neural networks are widely used learning models to achieve successful results in many application areas today. However, proving and sharing the accuracy and reliability of these networks is often limited due to privacy and...
Homomorphic Encryption: A Comprehensive Study of Types, Techniques, and Real-world Applications Tekin, Ezgi Naz; Özbudak, Ferruh; Department of Cryptography (2023-9-11) Homomorphic encryption (HE), which enables computations on encrypted data without first decrypting it, is a ground-breaking advancement in the cryptographic area. In this study, many HE schemes such as partially, somewhat,...
Differential and Linear Cryptanalysis of Lightweight Block Ciphers with MILP Approach İlter, Murat Burhan; Doğanaksoy, Ali; Selçuk, Ali Aydın; Department of Cryptography (2023-9-8) The security of block ciphers can be evaluated using cryptanalysis methods. The use of Mixed-Integer Linear Programming (MILP) has gained prominence due to its effectiveness in analyzing the security aspects of block ciphe...
DEEP ENSEMBLES APPROACH FOR ENERGY FORECASTING Enginar, Onur; Uğur, Ömür; Department of Financial Mathematics (2023-9-5) In this thesis study, we develop a novel deep ensembles based architecture that en- ables transfer learning to reduce the time requirement of deep ensembles without compromising the model’s accuracy.
