The paper considers the possibility of using data collected by the CRM system for working with Bank clients to analyze the efficiency of Bank employees. An analysis of the CRM system functions was performed, from which about 20 attributes were obtained for forming the employee profile and by which it is possible to calculate its integral efficiency.
In 2007, Howgrave-Graham proposed attack against NTRU cryptosystem, which consists of two parts, combining lattice reduction technique and a combinatorial method called meet-in-the-middle (MiTM). In this article, we apply hybrid attack to the Learning with Errors Problem (LWE) with sparse secret. The LWE problem is considered to be one of the most important in lattice-based cryptography. Large number of cryprographic schemes ranging from basic signature and encryption schemes to advanced schemes like group signatures and fully homomorphic encryption, base their security on the hardness assumption of LWE. In this paper, we review the hybrid attack and the algorithms it is based on. It is required for further practical implementation of the attack, whose main objective is to verify correctness of MiTM to the hybrid attack against the LWE problem.
This article is devoted to selection of optimal parameters for lattice reduction attack against lattice-based cryptosystems that use lattices with low rank sublattices. It illustrates design flaws caused by current approach to buiding these types of cryptosystems. Its relevance and novelty lies in the description of the conditions for the existence of a polynomial attack and in constructing an efficient algorithm that allows us to find optimal reduction attack parameters. The algorithm developed during the work on this article is quite fast and requires O(log2n) log of time to return results where n is the dimension of lattice. Its correctness has been verified by numerical experiments. As a result, graphs are shown connecting the parameters of the lattice and the minimum smallest parameters necessary for its successful reduction.
In the paper we discuss the main problems that have to be solved to ensure the confidentiality of communication between the nodes of mesh networks based on smartphones. We describe the important details of Bluetooth and Bluetooth Low Energy technologies, using which you can solve some of the problems described. Next, we briefly describe elliptic curve cryptography and choose a specific curve for it. We build an Elliptic Curve Integrated Encryption Scheme based on the elliptic curves key exchange and various crypto primitives that allows exchanging protected information using symmetric encryption. We also describe the processes of encryption and decryption of messages using this. As a result, the described technologies and the hybrid scheme are combined into the basic algorithm for secure data transmission over a mesh network based on Bluetooth, sufficient for software implementation.
This article describes the General principle of operation (stages, parameters used) of the ZK-SNARK zero-knowledge proof scheme, the possibility and prospects for its improvement. Implementations of zk-SNARK that are currently known have scalability limitations that depend on the magnitude of the computation being proved. First, the size of the proving key depends at least linearly on the upper bound of the structure in which we work. Second, the proof requires a record of all previous steps. The article describes an algorithm for achieving a new implementation of zk-SNARK using elliptic curve cryptography, field structure features, and proof integrity. In practice, this implementation is a recursive composition of the proof, while generating keys for any size of calculations carries constant memory costs. Subsequently, the entire process of proof is solely multiplicative constant costs overtime and additivecosts in memory. Thus, the described implementation of zk-SNARK has two important properties: capacity and incremental computability.
Computing the order of Jacobian of a hyperelliptic curve is a common number-theoretical problem that has lots of applications in modern cryptography. Namely, Jacobians are applicable to constructions of DLP-based cryptosystems, as well as constructions of verifiable delay functions (VDF’s), since they can be viewed as large groups of unknown order. In this article, we present an overview of approaches to accelerate Gaudry-Schost point counting algorithm that is the fastest known algorithm for computing the order of Jacobians of hyperelliptic curves of genus 2. This algorithm consists of two stages: 1) computing the number of points (equivalently, the characteristic polynomial of the curve) modulo some small primes and combining the result into a large module using CRT (polynomial-time part); 2) restoring the number of points utilizing modular data using algorithms based on birthday paradox (exponential-time part). Theoretically, the algorithm terminates after the first stage with time-complexity, where is a finite field modulus. However, in practice we terminate the polynomial-time part (due to high memory consumption), and we proceed to the second, memory-efficient, exponential-time part. This article presents a multithreaded C++ implementation of exponential part of Gaudry-Schost’s point counting algorithm. We evaluate the efficiency of our multithreaded implementation.
Currently, a number of diagnostic situations requiring consideration from the position of a council of physicians of the same (rarely) or different specialization is growing. Convening a council is often difficult or it is necessary to wait for a long time. Therefore, modeling mechanisms for solving of a diagnostic problems and its and cognitive visualization is relevant. The latter is also due to the fact that the safety of the made decisions depends on the speed of the doctor's response to the emerging problematic diagnostic situation. The paper is dedicated to the research of the convening and group activity of specialists within the council. Results of it would provide the basis of hybrid functional intellectual systems with cognitive modeling of a diagnostic problem.
One of the most difficult task for an operator is the operational work with an image in intelligent complex dynamic control systems of a directly not perceptible object and projecting information from the outside onto this image. In this regard, the development of computer imitation of cognitive formations will lead to an increase in human intelligence in operational work, by supplementing the operator's natural abilities to process operational and technological information by software and hardware (mechanisms) that expand human thought processes. This paper presents the results of the work of the first stage of the second year of the research on the topic of cognitive hybrid intelligent systems. Namely, results of the study of the operational and technological control system of the regional electric power system, results of the categorization of the ontological semantics of the objective reality and the mathematical reality of the object of technology operations activities.

The results of the research showed the adequacy of the constructed model and the compliance of the directional properties of the mirror antenna with the requirements imposed on them.
Research topic: the applicability of an external feature — electret-thermal analysis — to the study of liquid dielectrics, which are exotic types of edible vegetable oils.
The purpose of scientific research: to establish the relationship of the current response with heating of oil samples with their fatty acid composition.
Description of the research methodology: for the analysis of samples of vegetable oils (pumpkin, walnuts, black cumin), the method of electret-thermal analysis, that is widely used in condensed matter physics, was applied. When this method is implemented, during the heating of samples, a current response to the physicochemical changes occurring in them is recorded, which is compared with the fatty acid oils composition.
The main results, conclusions of the research work: based on the existence of a non-zero current response, a hypothesis is put forward that thermally stimulated and accompanied by the flow of current destruction of unstable supramolecular formations — associates of fatty acid triglycerides — occur in the samples. It has been established that the spectrum type of the thermally stimulated current is in obvious accordance with the fact which triglycerides of which specific fatty acids prevail in the composition of a particular oil. A change in the current spectrum in comparison with the characteristic spectrum for this oil type can be considered a marker of damage or falsification.
The paper describes an algorithm for integrating digital measuring devices with a personal computer as part of a multifunctional instrument complex for using the resources of the Matlab application software package for recording and processing received signals. The basic device is a memory oscilloscope manufactured by «Tektronix», which has proven itself in laboratory experiments on radio spectroscopy. The proposed procedure for connecting the oscilloscope to the software package is a sequence of actions that are quite accessible to any user. At the same time, it can significantly increase the efficiency of using digital measuring devices in experimental technology.
