  Adi Shamir - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Adi Shamir (born 1952) is an Israeli cryptographer.
He was one of the inventors of the RSA algorithm (along with Ron Rivest and Len Adleman), one of the inventors of the Feige-Fiat-Shamir Identification Scheme (along with Uriel Feige and Amos Fiat), and has made numerous contributions to the fields of cryptography and computer science.
Born in Tel Aviv, Shamir received a BS in Mathematics from Tel Aviv University in 1973 and obtained his MSc and PhD in Computer Science from the Weizmann Institute in 1975 and 1977 respectively.

 Adi Shamir Biography | World of Computer Science
Adi Shamir is best known for his work in cryptography, specifically the construction of the RSA public-key encryption system and the subsequent co founding of the RSA Group.
Adi Shamir was born in Tel Aviv, Israel, in 1952.
Shamir also won the Kennedy prize in 1975 (the Weizmann University award for best Ph.D.) and the IEEE W. Baker prize in 1986--this was a solo award for Shamir for a paper entitled A Polynomial-Time Algorithm for Breaking the Basic Merkle-Hellman Cryptosystem.

 Yitzhak Shamir, Then and Now
According to Bassok, Shamir is not interested (within the limits of the possible, of course) in any sector of administration other than the military and foreign affairs (i.e., including the settlements and the situation in the territories in general).
The best way to understand Shamir's policies may well be by treating him as a secular Khomeinist, for whom the secular ideology of LEHI is the source of imperatives as categorical as those of Shiite Islam for Khomeini's followers.
Shamir should be perceived as a true believer in the ideology under this description, to which he professes to remain faithful.

Professor Adi Shamir of the Weizmann Institute, a computer security guru, has some bad news for government officials and business owners who want their systems to be completely secure and impervious: no such thing exists.
Shamir's achievements in his field have been recognized with a prize known as the Nobel Prize in the field of computer science.
Shamir is the third Israeli and the second scientist from the Weizmann Institute to receive the A.M. Turing Award.

 Cellphone could crack RFID tags, says cryptographer   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
Adi Shamir, professor of computer science at the Weizmann Institute, reported his work in a high-profile panel discussion at the RSA Conference.
In recent weeks, Shamir used a directional antenna and digital oscilloscope to monitor power use by RFID tags while they were being read.
Shamir said the pressure to get tags down to five cents each has forced designers to eliminate any security features, a shortcoming that needs to be addressed in next-generation products.

 RFID Journal - EPC Tags Subject to Phone Attacks
Adi Shamir, professor of computer science at the Weizmann Institute of Science, announced that he and a fellow Weizmann researcher, Yossi Oren, were able to kill an EPC Class 1 Gen 1 passive tag after hacking it to determine its kill password.
Shamir and Oren pointed a directional antenna, attached to an oscilloscope, toward the tag—the manufacturer of which they would only describe as "one of the biggest"—as the tag was receiving bits of data sent to perform a kill command.
Perhaps most troubling was Shamir's prediction that a power analysis attack on an RFID tag could be performed using a very common device.

 Financial Cryptography: Turing Lecture by Adi Shamir
In the three-way Turing Lectures, Professors Adleman and Rivest talked about the early days of RSA, and it was left to Professor Adi Shamir to present "A Status Report [2]" as his contribution.
The famous cryptographers Leonard Adleman, Ronald Rivest, and Adi Shamir - the developers of the RSA encryption code - received the Association for Computing Machinery's 2002 Turing Award "for their seminal contributions to the theory and practical application of public-key cryptography." Their Turing Award lectures, given last June, are available online.
The last part of Shamir's presentation is a review of six major areas of today's cryptography: theory; public-key encryption and signature schemes; secret-key cryptography using block ciphers; secret-key cryptography using stream ciphers; theoretical cryptographic protocols; and practical cryptographic protocols.

During a discussion in the cryptography mailing forum a long forgotten proposal of a hash function based on modular arithmetic was mentioned by Ronald L. Rivest which perfectly fits into the project, I am working on, the Pure Crypto Project.
Second, Ronald Rivest showed in a clear way that Shamir's hash function is provably collision-resistant, as constructing a collision will require the ability to factor the modulus.
Shamir has consented to use the SDLH in the Pure Crypto Project and he has expressed his wish to see the hash implemented.

The lecture was both entertaining and informative, tracing the early history of events surrounding the development of the RSA algorithm and giving practical advice for computer security today.
Shamir's first contact with Ron Rivest was in a letter suggesting they discuss the advanced algorithms course that the two would teach together when Shamir was visiting at MIT.

Advances in computer technology and design, however, are quickly bringing such numbers within reach of spies and criminals.
Computer scientist Adi Shamir of the Weizmann Institute of Science in Rehovot, Israel, has now proposed an ingenious design that takes advantage of existing technology to create a factoring machine for rapidly cracking RSA-based codes.
"The main practical significance of such an improvement is that it can make 512-bit numbers easy to crack," says Shamir, who is one of the inventors of the RSA system.

 ACM: Fellows Award / Adi Shamir
Leonard M. Adleman, Ronald R. Rivest and Adi Shamir have been selected for their role in the creation of the world's most widely used public-key cryptography system, which has become known by their initials, RSA.
Their work was a significant advance in enabling secure communication among computers using public-key cryptography.
Although the problem of factoring large integers into primes was suspected to be a computationally difficult problem, no one prior to the Adleman, Rivest and Shamir had understood how factoring could be effectively applied to the problem of generating public/private keys in the context of public-key cryptography.
