Formal Verification of Probing Security Via Conditional Independence

Side-channel attacks are a major threat to the security of cryptosystems. Masking is a widely used countermeasure against such attacks, but proving the security of masked algorithms is error-prone without formal verification. In this work, we propose a novel approach to formal verification of...

CTFusion: A CTF-Based Benchmark for LLM Agent Evaluation

Recent advances in Large Language Models LLMs have enabled agentic systems for complex, multi-step tasks; cybersecurity is emerging as a prominent application. To evaluate such agents, researchers widely adopt Capture The Flag CTF benchmarks. However, current CTF benchmarks reuse existing...

A Single-Root, Multi-Curve, Context-Isolated, PQC-Pluggable Cryptographic Identity Primitive with Stateless Secret Rotation

Cryptographic identity anchors modern decentralized systems, yet current standards like BIP-39 and BIP-32 are structurally insufficient for the demands of multi-curve, multi-domain, and post-quantum PQC environments. These legacy schemes rely on a monolithic identity root with no inherent context...
