Cryptanalysis in code based cryptography

Participant : Alain Couvreur.

Following NIST call for post quantum cryptography, A. Couvreur and E. Barelli designed a key recovery attack against a McEliece–like encryption scheme called DAGS [9].

In addition, in collaboration with Matthieu Lequesne and Jean-Pierre Tillich (Inria Paris, SECRET team), A. Couvreur designed an attack against another proposal called RLCE (Random Linear Code Encryption) [12].
