A method and apparatus of a first network entity in a wireless communication system is provide. The method and apparatus comprises: identifying at least one set of bit strings to generate a ranging scrambled timestamp sequence (STS); identifying at least one initialization vector (IV) field corresponding to the at least one set of bit strings, wherein the at least one IV field comprises a 4-octet string; generating a ranging STS key and IV information element (RSKI IE) that includes the at least one IV field to convey and align a seed that is used to generate the ranging STS; and transmitting, to a second network entity, the generated RSKI IE for updating the ranging STS of the second network entity.

A first ECU performs an operation using a first key and a first fresh value to generate a keystream; performs an exclusive OR operation using the keystream and a to-be-transmitted first plaintext packet to generate a first ciphertext packet; and sends the first ciphertext packet to a second ECU. The first fresh value is a value generated by a counter in the first ECU when the first ECU transmits a packet, and the counter is configured to record a quantity of packets transmitted by the first ECU. The first ECU transmits the first ciphertext packet to the second ECU. This can prevent the first packet transmitted by the first ECU from being eavesdropped on, and help improve confidentiality of the packet transmitted by the first ECU.

The present application provides a method and a device for encryption of a video stream, a communication equipment, and a storage media. The method for encryption of a video stream includes: acquiring a video stream, encrypting a data part of an I frame by using a first encryption algorithm to obtain a first encrypted data, and encrypting an encryption key of the first encrypted data by using a second encryption algorithm to obtain a second encrypted data, and storing the second encrypted data in a frame header of the I frame to obtain an encrypted I frame.

Examples of systems and method described herein provide for accessing memory devices and, concurrently, generating access codes using an authenticated stream cipher at a memory controller. For example, a memory controller may use a memory access request to, concurrently, perform translation logic and/or error correction on data associated with the memory access request; while also utilizing the memory address as an initialization vector for an authenticated stream cipher to generate an access code. The error correction may be performed subsequent to address translation for a write operation (or prior to address translation for a read operation) to improve processing speed of memory access requests at a memory controller; while the memory controller also generates the encrypted access code.

Operational n-state digital circuits and n-state switching operations with n and integer greater than 2 execute Finite Lab-transformed (FLT) n-state switching functions to process n-state signals provided on at least 2 inputs to generate an n-state signal on an output. The FLT is an enhancement of a computer architecture. Cryptographic apparatus and methods apply circuits that are characterized by FLT-ed addition and/or multiplication over finite field GF(n) or by addition and/or multiplication modulo-n that are modified in accordance with reversible n-state inverters, and are no longer known operations. Cryptographic methods processed on FLT modified machine instructions include encryption/decryption, public key generation, and digital signature methods including Post-Quantum methods. They include modification of isogeny based, NTRU based and McEliece based cryptographic machines.

A computer-implemented method according to one embodiment includes compressing an uncompressed instance of data to create a compressed instance of data; encrypting the compressed instance of data utilizing wide-block encryption in response to determining that a size of the compressed instance of data is less than a predetermined threshold; and adding a zero pad to the encrypted compressed instance of data to create a ciphertext string.

An AI-based approach to Garbled speech (GS) detection. Machine learning (ML) models are created that can distinguish between GS speech and non-GS speech with high accuracy. The machine learning models take as input an encoded speech frame that has passed a CRC check. The input data/predictors to the models are a selected set of information elements (IEs) (i.e., a set of one or more bits) of the encoded speech frame. The selected IEs are a part of the input parameters to the speech decoder. It is possible to operate on single encoded speech frames, in contrast to using decoded frames, which requires taking a previous encoded frame into account for being able to perform the decoding.
