One-Time and Interactive Aggregate Signatures from Lattices
One-Time and Interactive Aggregate Signatures from Lattices Dan Boneh Sam Kim Stanford University Stanford University [email protected] [email protected] Abstract An aggregate signature scheme enables one to aggregate multiple signatures generated by different people on different messages into a short aggregate signature. We construct two signature aggregation schemes whose security is based on the standard SIS problem on lattices in the random oracle model. Our first scheme supports public aggregation of signatures, but for a one-time signature scheme. Our second scheme supports aggregation of signatures in a many-time signature scheme, but the aggregation process requires interaction among the signers. In both schemes, the size of the aggregate signature is at most logarithmic in the number of signatures being aggregated. 1 Introduction A signature scheme is a tuple of three algorithms: KeyGen generates a key pair (sk; pk), Sign(sk; m) ! σ signs a message m, and Verify(pk; m; σ) ! 0=1 verifies a signature σ on message m. A one-time signature is a signature scheme that is existentially unforgeable against an adversary that is given the public key and the signature on a single message of its choice. One-time signatures (OTS) have found many applications in cryptography. They are used to transform any existentially unforgeable signature into a strongly unforgeable signature [BS08], in several chosen-ciphertext secure public-key encryption constructions [DDN03, CHK04], in offline/online signatures [EGM96], and for authenticating streaming data [GR01]. The classic OTS scheme of Lamport [Lam79] and its Winternitz variant [BDE+13] shows that one-time signature schemes can be constructed from any one-way function. -

Part V Public-Key Cryptosystems, I. Key Exchange, Knapsack
Part V Public-key cryptosystems, I. Key exchange, knapsack, RSA CHAPTER 5: PUBLIC-KEY CRYPTOGRAPHY I. RSA The main problem of secret key (or symmetric) cryptography is that in order to send securely A secret message we need to send at first securely a secret key and therefore secret key cryptography is clearly not a sufficiently good tool for massive communication capable to protect secrecy, privacy and anonymity. prof. Jozef Gruska IV054 5. Public-key cryptosystems, I. Key exchange, knapsack, RSA 2/67 SECURE ENCRYPTION - a PRACTICAL POINT OF VIEW From practical point of view encryptions by a cryptosystem can be considered as secure if they cannot be broken by many (thousands) superomputeers with exaflop performance working for some years. prof. Jozef Gruska IV054 5. Public-key cryptosystems, I. Key exchange, knapsack, RSA 3/67 CONTENT In this chapter we describe the birth of public key cryptography, that can better manage key distribution problem, and three of its cryptosystems, especially RSA. The basic idea of a public key cryptography: In a public key cryptosystem not only the encryption and decryption algorithms are public, but for each user U also the key eU for encrypting messages (by anyone) for U is public. Moreover, each user U keeps secret another (decryption) key, dU , that can be used for decryption of messages that were addressed to him and encrypted with the help of the public encryption key eU . Encryption and decryption keys could (and should) be different - we can therefore speak also about asymmetric cryptography. Secret key cryptography, that has the same key for encryption and for decryption is also called symmetric cryptography. -
Blind Schnorr Signatures in the Algebraic Group Model
An extended abstract of this work appears in EUROCRYPT’20. This is the full version. Blind Schnorr Signatures and Signed ElGamal Encryption in the Algebraic Group Model Georg Fuchsbauer1, Antoine Plouviez2, and Yannick Seurin3 1 TU Wien, Austria 2 Inria, ENS, CNRS, PSL, Paris, France 3 ANSSI, Paris, France first.last@{tuwien.ac.at,ens.fr,m4x.org} January 16, 2021 Abstract. The Schnorr blind signing protocol allows blind issuing of Schnorr signatures, one of the most widely used signatures. Despite its practical relevance, its security analysis is unsatisfactory. The only known security proof is rather informal and in the combination of the generic group model (GGM) and the random oracle model (ROM) assuming that the “ROS problem” is hard. The situation is similar for (Schnorr-)signed ElGamal encryption, a simple CCA2-secure variant of ElGamal. We analyze the security of these schemes in the algebraic group model (AGM), an idealized model closer to the standard model than the GGM. We first prove tight security of Schnorr signatures from the discrete logarithm assumption (DL) in the AGM+ROM. We then give a rigorous proof for blind Schnorr signatures in the AGM+ROM assuming hardness of the one-more discrete logarithm problem and ROS. As ROS can be solved in sub-exponential time using Wagner’s algorithm, we propose a simple modification of the signing protocol, which leaves the signatures unchanged. It is therefore compatible with systems that already use Schnorr signatures, such as blockchain protocols. We show that the security of our modified scheme relies on the hardness of a problem related to ROS that appears much harder. -
Implementation and Performance Evaluation of XTR Over Wireless Network
Implementation and Performance Evaluation of XTR over Wireless Network By Basem Shihada [email protected] Dept. of Computer Science 200 University Avenue West Waterloo, Ontario, Canada (519) 888-4567 ext. 6238 CS 887 Final Project 19th of April 2002 Implementation and Performance Evaluation of XTR over Wireless Network 1. Abstract Wireless systems require reliable data transmission, large bandwidth and maximum data security. Most current implementations of wireless security algorithms perform lots of operations on the wireless device. This result in a large number of computation overhead, thus reducing the device performance. Furthermore, many current implementations do not provide a fast level of security measures such as client authentication, authorization, data validation and data encryption. XTR is an abbreviation of Efficient and Compact Subgroup Trace Representation (ECSTR). Developed by Arjen Lenstra & Eric Verheul and considered a new public key cryptographic security system that merges high level of security GF(p6) with less number of computation GF(p2). The claim here is that XTR has less communication requirements, and significant computation advantages, which indicate that XTR is suitable for the small computing devices such as, wireless devices, wireless internet, and general wireless applications. The hoping result is a more flexible and powerful secure wireless network that can be easily used for application deployment. This project presents an implementation and performance evaluation to XTR public key cryptographic system over wireless network. The goal of this project is to develop an efficient and portable secure wireless network, which perform a variety of wireless applications in a secure manner. The project literately surveys XTR mathematical and theoretical background as well as system implementation and deployment over wireless network. -
Solving NTRU Challenges Using the New Progressive BKZ Library
Solving NTRU Challenges Using the New Progressive BKZ Library Erik Mårtensson Department of Electrical and Information Technology Lund University Advisors: Professor Thomas Johansson and Qian Guo 2016-08-24 Printed in Sweden E-huset, Lund, 2016 Abstract NTRU is a public-key cryptosystem, where the underlying mathematical problem is currently safe against large-scale quantum computer attacks. The system is not as well investigated, as for example RSA and the company behind NTRU has created the NTRU Challenges, to remedy this. These challenges consist of 27 different public keys of increasing size, where the task in each challenge is to calculate (something similar to) the private key. The goal of this thesis was to examine different attacks against the NTRU Challenges and solve as many challenges as possible. By lattice reduction attacks, using a recently published new progressive BKZ algorithm, the first five challenges were solved, while the current biggest solved challenge by any researcher is challenge number seven. Keywords: NTRU Challenge, Progressive BKZ , BDD, Enumeration, SVP i ii Acknowledgements I would like to thank my main supervisor Professor Thomas Johansson for all his help and feedback during the project, for introducing me to the lattice-based cryptography area and last but not least for pointing out the necessity of solving a small problem correctly before tackling a big problem. I would like to thank my assistant supervisor Qian Guo for all his help and feed- back during the project and for introducing me to the progressive BKZ algorithm that turned out to become the focus of this thesis. I would like to thank all the researchers that patiently answered my many ques- tions during this project, with special thanks to Yoshinori Aono, Léo Ducas and Zhenfei Zhang for answering questions regarding the progressive BKZ algorithm and library, the BKZ plus BDD enumeration strategy for attacking NTRU and the NTRU Challenges respectively. -

How to Strengthen Ntruencrypt to Chosen-Ciphertext Security in the Standard Model
NTRUCCA: How to Strengthen NTRUEncrypt to Chosen-Ciphertext Security in the Standard Model Ron Steinfeld1?, San Ling2, Josef Pieprzyk3, Christophe Tartary4, and Huaxiong Wang2 1 Clayton School of Information Technology Monash University, Clayton VIC 3800, Australia [email protected] 2 Div. of Mathematical Sciences, School of Physical and Mathematical Sciences, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore, 637371 lingsan,[email protected] 3 Centre for Advanced Computing - Algorithms and Cryptography, Dept. of Computing, Macquarie University, Sydney, NSW 2109, Australia [email protected] 4 Institute for Theoretical Computer Science, Tsinghua University, People's Republic of China [email protected] Abstract. NTRUEncrypt is a fast and practical lattice-based public-key encryption scheme, which has been standardized by IEEE, but until re- cently, its security analysis relied only on heuristic arguments. Recently, Stehlé and Steinfeld showed that a slight variant (that we call pNE) could be proven to be secure under chosen-plaintext attack (IND-CPA), assum- ing the hardness of worst-case problems in ideal lattices. We present a variant of pNE called NTRUCCA, that is IND-CCA2 secure in the standard model assuming the hardness of worst-case problems in ideal lattices, and only incurs a constant factor overhead in ciphertext and key length over the pNE scheme. To our knowledge, our result gives the rst IND- CCA2 secure variant of NTRUEncrypt in the standard model, based on standard cryptographic assumptions. As an intermediate step, we present a construction for an All-But-One (ABO) lossy trapdoor function from pNE, which may be of independent interest. Our scheme uses the lossy trapdoor function framework of Peik- ert and Waters, which we generalize to the case of (k −1)-of-k-correlated input distributions. -
