This addresses security issues in cryptography for applications requiring robust encryption against linear algebra-based threats.
The authors tackled the vulnerability of cryptographic schemes to linear algebra attacks by using tropical algebras as platforms, resulting in several schemes that are resistant to such attacks.
We employ tropical algebras as platforms for several cryptographic schemes that would be vulnerable to linear algebra attacks were they based on "usual" algebras as platforms.
