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. 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in Electrical and Computer Engineering,$x2191-8120 606 $aTelecommunication 606 $aCoding theory 606 $aInformation theory 606 $aData protection 606 $aCommunications Engineering, Networks 606 $aCoding and Information Theory 606 $aData and Information Security 615 0$aTelecommunication. 615 0$aCoding theory. 615 0$aInformation theory. 615 0$aData protection. 615 14$aCommunications Engineering, Networks. 615 24$aCoding and Information Theory. 615 24$aData and Information Security. 676 $a005.82 700 $aBaldi$b Marco$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0521569 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910299745303321 996 $aQC-LDPC Code-Based Cryptography$92075335 997 $aUNINA
