The Hashed Fractal Key Recovery (HFKR) Problem: From Symbolic Path Inversion to Post-Quantum Cryptographic Keys
Classical cryptographic systems rely heavily on structured algebraic problems, such as factorization, discrete logarithms, or lattice-based assumptions, which are increasingly vulnerable to quantum attacks and structural cryptanalysis. In response, this work introduces the Hashed Fractal Key Recovery (HFKR) problem, a non-algebraic cryptographic construction grounded in symbolic dynamics and chaotic perturbations. HFKR builds on the Symbolic Path Inversion Problem (SPIP), leveraging symbolic tr…

More Bang For Your Buck(et): Fast and Space-efficient Hardware-accelerated Coarse-granular Indexing on GPUs
In recent work, we have shown that NVIDIA's raytracing cores on RTX video cards can be exploited to realize hardware-accelerated lookups for GPU-resident database indexes. On a high level, the concept materializes all keys as triangles in a 3D scene and indexes them. Lookups are performed by firing rays into the scene and utilizing the index structure to detect hits in a hardware-accelerated fashion. While this approach called RTIndeX (or short RX) is indeed promising, it currently suffers from…

Random-key genetic algorithms
A random-key genetic algorithm is an evolutionary metaheuristic for discrete and global optimization. Each solution is encoded as a vector of N random keys, where a random key is a real number randomly generated in the continuous interval [0, 1). A decoder maps each vector of random keys to a solution of the optimization problem being solved and computes its cost. The benefit of this approach is that all genetic operators and transformations can be maintained within the unitary hypercube, regar…

Singularity Blockchain Key Management via non-custodial key management
web3 wallets are key to managing user identity on blockchain. The main purpose of a web3 wallet application is to manage the private key for the user and provide an interface to interact with the blockchain. The key management scheme ( KMS ) used by the wallet to store and recover the private key can be either custodial, where the keys are permissioned and in custody of the wallet provider or noncustodial where the keys are in custody of the user. The existing non-custodial key management schem…

As a security community we have to make sure that people know about this vulnerability. Right now it's pretty easy to thwart, _don't keep your keys near the front door_. It's a simple countermeasure, but people have to see footage like this to understand. The threat is real and the gear to do this is pretty cheap.

People keep yapping to me at work while I wear my earplugs (them not realizing I have earplugs in) so I got earmuffs instead so people can more easily see that I might not hear them well (also means I can leave my house keys in my locker at the office).
Also some different filters (a bit less dampening and less damping on the higher-ends) for my earplugs (that I mostly use for driving my car n stuff).

Convergence of the QuickVal Residual
QuickSelect (aka Find), introduced by Hoare (1961), is a randomized algorithm for selecting a specified order statistic from an input sequence of $n$ objects, or rather their identifying labels usually known as keys. The keys can be numeric or symbol strings, or indeed any labels drawn from a given linearly ordered set. We discuss various ways in which the cost of comparing two keys can be measured, and we can measure the efficiency of the algorithm by the total cost of such comparisons. We d…

Synopsis: Secure and private trend inference from encrypted semantic embeddings
WhatsApp and many other commonly used communication platforms guarantee end-to-end encryption (E2EE), which requires that service providers lack the cryptographic keys to read communications on their own platforms. WhatsApp's privacy-preserving design makes it difficult to study important phenomena like the spread of misinformation or political messaging, as users have a clear expectation and desire for privacy and little incentive to forfeit that privacy in the process of handing over raw data…

Quasi-Periodic Optical Key-Enabled Hybrid Cryptography: Merging Diffractive Physics and Deep Learning for High-Dimensional Security
Optical encryption inherently provides strong security advantages, with hybrid optoelectronic systems offering additional degrees of freedom by integrating optical and algorithmic domains. However, existing optical encryption schemes heavily rely on electronic computation, limiting overall efficiency, while the physical keys are susceptible to damage, compromising both security and system stability. To overcome these challenges, we introduce the Quasi Periodic Optical Key (QPOK), which combines…
