Incremental Cryptography and Application to Virus Protection

This work introduced Incremental Cryptography, where incrementality means that one can obtain the value of a cryptographic function on an input when given also the function's value on a related input, more efficiently than by applying the cryptographic function. In particular, it provides incremental signature and message authentication schemes supporting a variety of document modification operations.
