This book describes the fundamentals of cryptographic primitives based on quasi-cyclic low-density parity-check (QC-LDPC) codes, with a special focus on the use of these codes in public-key cryptosystems derived from the McEliece and Niederreiter schemes. In the first part of the book, the main characteristics of QC-LDPC codes are reviewed, and several techniques for their design are presented, while tools for assessing the error correction performance of these codes are also described. Some families of QC-LDPC codes that are best suited for use in cryptography are also presented. The second part of the book focuses on the McEliece and Niederreiter cryptosystems, both in their original forms and in some subsequent variants. The applicability of QC-LDPC codes in these frameworks is investigated by means of theoretical analyses and numerical tools, in order to assess their benefits and drawbacks in terms of system efficiency and security. Several examples of QC-LDPC code-based public key cryptosystems are presented, and their advantages over classical solutions are highlighted. The possibility of also using QC-LDPC codes in symmetric encryption schemes and digital signature algorithms is also briefly examined.

This book constitutes the refereed and revised post-conference proceedings of the 7th International Workshop on Code-Based Cryptography, CBC 2019, held in Darmstadt, Germany, in May 2019. The eight papers presented in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions. These contributions are divided into two groups: The first four papers deal with the design of code-based cryptosystems, while the following four papers are on cryptanalysis of code-based cryptosystems.

The 16th Workshop on Selected Areas in Cryptography (SAC 2009) was held at the University of Calgary,in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, during August 13-14, 2009. There were 74 participants from 19 countries. Previous workshops in this series were held at Queens University in Kingston (1994, 1996, 1998, 1999, and 2005), Carleton University in Ottawa (1995, 1997, and 2003), University of - terloo (2000 and 2004), Fields Institute in Toronto (2001), Memorial University of Newfoundland in St. Johns (2002), Concordia University in Montreal (2006), University of Ottawa (2007), and Mount Allison University in Sackville (2008). The themes for SAC 2009 were: 1. Design and analysis of symmetric key primitives and cryptosystems, incl- ing block and stream ciphers, hash functions, and MAC algorithms 2. E?cient implementations of symmetric and public key algorithms 3. Mathematical and algorithmic aspects of applied cryptology 4. Privacy enhancing cryptographic systems This included the traditional themes (the ?rst three) together with a special theme for 2009 workshop (fourth theme).
