Long story short, I'm a PhD student in Computational Science, but I did undergrad in CS and Math. My favorite math class from undergrad was Crypto, and I want to figure out how I can incorporate that into my current research. I think some sort of cryptanalysis implemented on FPGA is the way to go, but I need to get caught up on modern crypto. Anyone have a good recommendation for cryptography or cryptanalysis at the graduate level? I realize I need to hit up the crypto profs at my school but I'm wondering if /sci/ has any recommendations.

Crypto general.

>>8781613
https://functionalcs.github.io/curriculum/#org848787c has a list

You want whatever Tanja Lange and DJ Bernstein are doing lately as they are the preeminent researchers in both post-quantum crypto and side-channel attacks/cryptanalysis. For example in that above link going through djb's posts on the IETF mailing list will give you a crash course in cryptanalysis as he often writes pages and pages of detailed replies why certain things are bound to fail in certain environments.

If I remember correctly some company who sponsors FreeBSD implements a crypto test bench like what you want to do. The Art of Programming vol2 has a list of randomness testing algorithms you may be interested in still in use today

Rogaway has a bunch of good info too plus you can find his papers on google scholar http://web.cs.ucdavis.edu/~rogaway/classes/127/spring16/

Look up his papers on attacking XTS outside the confines of disk geometry ie: cloud hosting a full VM image. He can flip bits to theoretically create blind shells so when the VM is used again it sends you its encryption key
