A QUANTITATIVE STUDY OF ADVANCED ENCRYPTION STANDARD PERFORMANCE AS IT RELATES TO CRYPTOGRAPHIC ATTACK FEASIBILITY A Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Computer Science By Daniel Stephen Hawthorne Colorado Technical University December, 2018 Committee Dr. Richard Livingood, Ph.D., Chair Dr. Kelly Hughes, DCS, Committee Member Dr. James O. Webb, Ph.D., Committee Member December 17, 2018 © Daniel Stephen Hawthorne, 2018 1 Abstract The advanced encryption standard (AES) is the premier symmetric key cryptosystem in use today. Given its prevalence, the security provided by AES is of utmost importance. Technology is advancing at an incredible rate, in both capability and popularity, much faster than its rate of advancement in the late 1990s when AES was selected as the replacement standard for DES. Although the literature surrounding AES is robust, most studies fall into either theoretical or practical yet infeasible.

  • Freedompop 2020 Review
    FreedomPop 2020 Review FreedomPop is becoming a popular phone plan because it has a range of affordable plans, including a free phone plan. I had decided to switch out my phone service from a no contract Tracfone (T-Mobile Network) due to not being able to send photographs with my texts using their basic phone plan. I had been using their LG306G phone with good results for a few years, until the last several months. I was finding the poor quality video camera that this phone has to be a factor in wanting to upgrade the phone. Their 1 year service for a basic phone was $199.99 for 1500 minutes, which comes out to $16.67 per month. I had been considering upgrading to a Simple Mobile (T-Mobile Network) phone at $50 for the new 2018 Motorola Moto 5e Android 8 phone and $20 per month for automatic renewal service with 3GB data and international calling, but then became aware of the cheaper FreedomPop service with a free phone and free service. FreedomPop uses the Sprint and AT&T networks that have good coverage of the USA. My needs were quite simple: • Local, national and occasional international calls. • Answering machine. • Texting. • Low data use for sending pictures occasionally. • Calling 911 emergency services. Like most phone plans, you have two options with phones: • Buy a FreedomPop phone. • Use an unlocked phone with their sim card. I decided to assess their service with both devices. The following were purchased: • FreedomPop certified refurbished ZTE Prestige 2 2017 Android 6 phone at $19.99 (free phone + $19.99 activation fee.) • Blu Vivo 5 Mini 2017 Android 6 unlocked phone at $55.

  • Alphabet's 2019 CDP Climate Change Report
    Alphabet, Inc. - Climate Change 2019 C0. Introduction C0.1 (C0.1) Give a general description and introduction to your organization. As our founders Larry and Sergey wrote in the original founders' letter, "Google is not a conventional company. We do not intend to become one." That unconventional spirit has been a driving force throughout our history -- inspiring us to do things like rethink the mobile device ecosystem with Android and map the world with Google Maps. As part of that, our founders also explained that you could expect us to make "smaller bets in areas that might seem very speculative or even strange when compared to our current businesses." From the start, the company has always strived to do more, and to do important and meaningful things with the resources we have. Alphabet is a collection of businesses -- the largest of which is Google. It also includes businesses that are generally pretty far afield of our main internet products in areas such as self-driving cars, life sciences, internet access and TV services. We report all non- Google businesses collectively as Other Bets. Our Alphabet structure is about helping each of our businesses prosper through strong leaders and independence. We have always been a company committed to building products that have the potential to improve the lives of millions of people. Our product innovations have made our services widely used, and our brand one of the most recognized in the world. Google's core products and platforms such as Android, Chrome, Gmail, Google Drive, Google Maps, Google Play, Search, and YouTube each have over one billion monthly active users.

  • Broadband and Mobile
    Benenden Parish Plan Communication: Broadband and Mobile Issue 1.1 03/05/2014 Benenden Broadband and Mobile Key Points Broadband Introduction of Superfast Broadband should be complete by March 2015. 96% of postcodes within the TN17 4xx Benenden exchange area will attain Superfast Broadband speeds (25 Mbps and above) Only BT and Talk Talk have their own broadband equipment in Benenden Exchange providing maximum speeds of up to 24 Mbps. Other ISPs use a BT Wholesale connection enabling service at either 24 Mbps or just 8 Mbps (e.g. Sky) WiFi Broadband may be available for some households in Benenden from CallFlow and VFast 4G Mobile services will enable broadband comparable speeds beginning in Benenden during 2014 Poor broadband performance may be due to electrical interference and internal (or external) wiring problems. Mobile O2 have plans to improve 2G and 3G coverage and also introduce 4G services in 2014. Home coverage can also be improved by using a signal booster (femtocell) PAYG SIM cards can be a useful tool to determine the best provider in addition to online network coverage maps. If you decide to change provider your current mobile company will inevitably offer you inducements to stay (e.g. lower charges, improved terms, free femtocell). This also applies to Broadband. Broadband DSL Broadband (Digital Subscriber Line) The most significant (but not the only) factor limiting Broadband speed is the physical distance between the household and the equipment in the telephone exchange. Rural telephone exchange areas tend to be larger than those in urban areas and therefore people are more likely to live further from the exchange and consequently suffer from poor broadband performance.
