Abstract (Summary of the Work)

In this dissertation, we designed a new two-layered keyed hash function having provably low collision and differential probabilities. The first layer of the hash function uses BRW [3] polynomial based Hash function for each portion of a fixed length of the input message and the second layer uses usual Horner’s rule based Hash function on the digest stream obtained from the first layer. This hash function is then integrated with the block cipher Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) and the stream cipher Salsa20 to implement some of the encryption and authentication primitives mentioned in [1].
