Security Analysis of Lightweight Cryptographic Primitives
In this era of the Internet of Things (IoT), the massive connectivity of devices and enormous amounts of data in the cloud and on communication devices and channels have made information susceptible to different types of attacks. Achieving uncompromised security on devices and keeping sensitive data private requires cryptographic techniques. Cryptanalysis is the process of examining cryptographic systems for weaknesses by exploring the weaknesses of the underlying mathematics of cryptographic systems and weaknesses in their implementation, including side channel attacks. When conducting cryptanalysis, it is important to model the assumed amount of knowledge the adversary has. The attacks for these models are classified into two categories, white-box and black-box attack models. In the black box model the adversary has no initial knowledge of the cryptographic scheme or its implementation, but only can observe external information and behavior. In the white box model the adversary has full control over the implementation and its execution environment. In such a model, it is much more difficult to protect cryptographic implementations than in the classical black-box model.
In this dissertation we consider both types of attacks, the white-box model and the black-box model, and perform cryptanalysis on lightweight symmetric cryptographic schemes. Lightweight cryptographic primitives are designed for use in resource-constrained devices.
The first contribution of this dissertation is evaluation, for several lightweight cryptographic schemes, of the vulnerability of their S-boxes against Correlation Power Analysis (CPA). Three well-known theoretical metrics are evaluated: transparency order, non-linearity, and signal-to-noise ratio. These metrics aim to characterize the resistance of these S-boxes against adversaries that exploit physical leakages.
Furthermore, the work presented in this dissertation develops generalized quantitative metrics to measure the rate of information leakage and the accuracy of information learned through side-channel attacks. In doing so, we propose a novel implementation of ternary cryptographic schemes in firmware on a binary micro-controller and provide a comparative study of these against correlation power analysis.
Lastly, we perform a black-box security analysis of a proprietary protocol between two embedded systems that allow an encrypted tunnel between a client, and a server. Our goal is to evaluate the feasibility of reverse-engineering of the proprietary protocol by adversaries who have limited resources and only temporary access to the embedded systems. We propose a method that predicts several instances of the encryption process from the data collection/observations. In this work we also provide a structure for comparing how close our cryptanalysis results are to the true known values.

Supports doctoral dissertation research on the nature, causes and consequences of the spatial dimensions of human activities and/or environmental processes across a range of scales.
The objective of the Human-Environment and Geographical Sciences Program is to support basic scientific research about the nature, causes and/or consequences of the spatial distribution of human activity and/or environmental processes across a range of scales. Contemporary geographical research is an arena in which diverse research traditions and methodologies are valid. Recognizing the breadth of the field's contributions to science, the HEGS Program welcomes proposals for empirically grounded, theoretically engaged, and methodologically sophisticated, generalizable research in all sub-fields of geographical and spatial sciences.
Because the National Science Foundation's mandate is to support basic scientific research, the NSF Human-Environment and Geographical Sciences program does not fund research that takes as its primary goal humanistic understanding or applied research. HEGS welcomes proposals that creatively integrate scientific and critical approaches, and that engage rigorous quantitative, qualitative, or mixed methods in novel ways. However, a proposal that applies geographical/spatial methods to a social problem but does not propose how that problem provides an opportunity to make a theory-testing and/or theory expanding contributions to geographical science will be returned without review. HEGS supported projects are expected to yield results that will enhance, expand, and transform fundamental geographical theory and methods, and that will have positive broader impacts that benefit society. A proposal to the HEGS Program must also articulate how the results are generalizable beyond the case study.
It should be noted that HEGS is situated in the Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences Division of the Social, Behavioral and Economic Sciences Directorate at NSF. Therefore, it is critical that research projects submitted to the Human-Environment and Geographical Sciences Program illustrate how the proposed research questions engage human dimensions relevant and important to people and societies.
A proposal that fails to be responsive to these program expectations will be returned without review.
For all general inquiries to the HEGS program, please email [email protected] . This email will reach all current HEGS program officers and one of them will reply to you.

Gloria J. Ashaolu, a Michigan State University History PhD candidate majoring in African American history with minors in U.S. history and Black comparative/diaspora history, was recently named a 2024 National Academy of Education (NAEd)/Spencer Dissertation Fellow.
This prestigious fellowship was only offered to 35 graduate students nationwide. The fellowship supports these students with the writing phase of their dissertation. The fellowship is comprised of three key components: fellows receive $27,500 for one academic year (distributed in two installments), students participate in two professional development retreats facilitated by NAEd members and other distinguished scholars, and have the opportunity of selecting an NAEd member or another respected scholar as their mentor to offer advice and assistance during the school year.
We sat down with Gloria and asked her about her dissertation, how grateful she is for being recognized as a NAEd/Spencer Fellow, and why she decided to major in African American history and minor in U.S. history, and Black comparative/diaspora history.
What were you thinking when you found out you were awarded The NAEd/Spencer Dissertation Fellowship?
I was overwhelmed with joy and a deep sense of gratitude.
What is this fellowship going to allow you to do? How is it so helpful you received this?
The financial support from the NAEd/Spencer Dissertation Fellowship alleviates the need for significant employment and will allow me to dedicate more time to my dissertation—toward meeting the goals I set for my time to degree trajectory. I am also immensely grateful for the unique opportunity to engage with members of my cohort and distinguished scholars in the field of education at the two professional development retreats organized by the National Academy of Education. Participating in the discussions and sessions will provide me with the resources and insight to meaningfully contribute to the field and the improvement of education. Furthermore, fellows are paired with mentors who will provide further research and career development over the academic year.
What is your dissertation about? Tell us about it in a few sentences.
Between the late 19 th and early 20 th centuries, the model of educational vision Black teachers fostered and were deeply committed to greatly mirrored what we today regard as anti-racist systems of knowledge and educational practices. My dissertation attends to the understudied educational activism, pedagogies, and praxes of local Black teachers during the Early Black History Movement through a biographical analysis of the life and times of Jane Dabney Shackelford, a Black female educator from Terre Haute, Indiana who was most active during the era of Jim Crow segregation. The educational trajectory and systems of teaching Shackelford and her peers embodied serve as a useful tool for conceptualizing the significant ways in which local schoolteachers cultivated an intentional educational and intellectual practice that challenged the beliefs, politics, and policies of Jim Crow segregation. Driven by what Anna Julia Cooper referred to as the “moral forces of reason and justice and love,” these educators inspired Civil Rights Movement participants, Black Power Movement activists, and Black Studies revolutionaries.
Why is this type of research so important?
Amid the regime of violence, discrimination, and disfranchisement of Jim Crow segregation, local Black teachers played critical roles in the lives of countless Black youth by educating them about their rich history, heritage, and culture. This study situates the underappreciated presence and pedagogies of these educators within their rightful historical legacy. The first contribution of this project entails the study of the life and times of an influential—yet understudied—historical actor as a window into the education-activism of Black teachers during the Early Black History Movement. Second, this project attends to the principles and conventions of Jim Crow North, by challenging static, flattened, and selective narratives that loom in popular remembering of the era of Jim Crow segregation. Third, the use of the robust repository that makes up the Shackelford papers seeks to excavate the scholarly and intellectual work and the service ethos that guided her educational activism and that of her community of educators.
Why did you decide to major and minor in African American history, U.S. history, and Black comparative/diaspora history?
The decision to major and minor in African American history, U.S. history, and Black comparative/diaspora history in the Michigan State University History PhD program was inspired by the trajectory of my research, the opportunity to learn from leading scholars in the fields, and my aspiration to create meaningful historical work that helps us better understand the present through our collective history towards a just and inclusive society.
Who have been some of your mentors within the History department?
My mentors within the department include my major Advisor, Dr. Pero G. Dagbovie (University Distinguished Professor of History, Associate Provost for Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies, and Dean of the Graduate School), and Dissertation Committee Member, Dr. LaShawn D. Harris (award-winning historian, Organization of American Historians Distinguished Lecturer, and Associate Professor of History). I am sincerely thankful for their instrumental guidance and supportive mentorship.
Anything else you would like to include?
I am also grateful to God for the scholar-friends in the Department of History and College of Education who have been thought-partners and for their community of support.
Gloria J. Ashaolu
