  • Cryptographic Agility in Practice Emerging Use-Cases
    CRYPTOGRAPHIC AGILITY IN PRACTICE EMERGING USE-CASES AUTHORS: Tyson Macaulay Chief Product Officer InfoSec Global Richard Henderson Chief Technology Officer North America InfoSec Global USE CASES WHITEPAPER Summary Cryptography is the bedrock upon which modern data and communications security rests. Cryptography provides the ability to not just keep data and communications confidential, but also underlies virtually all means to establish the identity of people and things in a virtualized world. But cryptography has historically been static: “set and forget”. The world has changed while cryptography has not, and there is a pressing need to move towards dynamically managed and agile cryptographic systems: “cryptographic agility”. Data transparently moves in and out of trusted and untrusted hardware, software, within complex, integrated IoT/IIoT (Internet of Things/Industrial Internet of Things) devices and platforms, and across international borders. Once deployed or implemented, virtually all of these are unable to make changes to their digital identities or the cryptography they use without a hands-on, bespoke process of re-installation, re-configuration, and downtime... if fixes and updates are available at all. What does this mean? For devices and platforms, a cryptographic vulnerability in may require the device be replaced, discarded, or additional in-line infrastructure be deployed to mitigate the threat. For applications and systems, patches must be applied, systems shut down, and expensive human expertise contracted to make it all work. This “static” cryptographic security model has already caused substantial public safety, consumer privacy, financial, and health risks - all associated with device and system vulnerabilities exploited by malicious actors. For now, there are no standards and few tools for the management of cryptography.

  • Agile and Versatile Quantum Communication: Signatures and Secrets
    PHYSICAL REVIEW X 11, 011038 (2021) Agile and Versatile Quantum Communication: Signatures and Secrets ‡ † ‡ Stefan Richter ,1,2,*, Matthew Thornton ,3, , Imran Khan,1,2 Hamish Scott ,3 Kevin Jaksch ,1,2 Ulrich Vogl,1,2 Birgit Stiller,1,2 Gerd Leuchs,1,2 Christoph Marquardt,1,2 and Natalia Korolkova 3 1Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light, Staudtstraße 2, 91058 Erlangen, Germany 2Institute of Optics, Information and Photonics, University of Erlangen-Nuremberg, Staudtstraße 7/B2, Erlangen, Germany 3School of Physics and Astronomy, University of St Andrews, North Haugh, St Andrews KY16 9SS, United Kingdom (Received 27 January 2020; revised 24 November 2020; accepted 18 December 2020; published 24 February 2021; corrected 9 March 2021) Agile cryptography allows for a resource-efficient swap of a cryptographic core in case the security of an underlying classical cryptographic algorithm becomes compromised. Conversely, versatile cryptography allows the user to switch the cryptographic task without requiring any knowledge of its inner workings. In this paper, we suggest how these related principles can be applied to the field of quantum cryptography by explicitly demonstrating two quantum cryptographic protocols, quantum digital signatures (QDS) and quantum secret sharing (QSS), on the same hardware sender and receiver platform. Crucially, the protocols differ only in their classical postprocessing. The system is also suitable for quantum key distribution (QKD) and is highly compatible with deployed telecommunication infrastructures, since it uses standard quadrature phase-shift keying encoding and heterodyne detection. For the first time, QDS protocols are modified to allow for postselection at the receiver, enhancing protocol performance. The cryptographic primitives QDS and QSS are inherently multipartite, and we prove that they are secure not only when a player internal to the task is dishonest, but also when (external) eavesdropping on the quantum channel is allowed.

  • Quantum Computing Threat: How to Keep Ahead
    Think openly, build securely White paper: Quantum Computing Threat: How to Keep Ahead Ë PQShield Ƕ February 2021 © PQShield Ltd | www.pqshield.com | PQShield Ltd, Oxford, OX2 7HT, UK Cryptographic agility and a clear roadmap to the upcoming NIST standards are key to a smooth and secure transition. 1 Background 1.1 New Cryptography Standards The NIST (U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology) Post‐Quantum Cryptography (PQC) Project has been running since 2016 and is now in its third, final evaluation round. This project standardizes new key establishment and digital signature algorithms that have been designed to be resistant against attacks by quantum computers. These new algorithms are intended to replace current classical‐security RSA and Elliptic Cryptography (ECDH, ECDSA) standards in applications. The particular mathematical problems that RSA and Elliptic Cryptography are based onareeasy (polynomial‐time solvable) for quantum computers. Unless complemented with quantum‐safe cryptography, this will allow for the forgery of digital signatures (integrity compromise) and de‐ cryption of previously encrypted data (confidentiality compromise) in the future. This is aheight‐ ened risk for organizations that need to secure data for long periods of time; government orga‐ nizations that handle and secure classified information have largely been the drivers ofthepost‐ quantum standardization and its adoption in the field, but banks, financial services, healthcare providers, those developing intellectual property and many others increasingly feel the need to ensure that they can protect their customers and IP – now and in the future. 1.2 Quantum Threat and Post-Quantum Cryptography The current position of NCSC (UK’s National Cyber Security Centre) and NSA (USA’s National Se‐ curity Agency) is that the best mitigation against the threat of quantum computers is quantum‐ safe cryptography, also known as post‐quantum cryptography (PQC).

Measuring And Securing Cryptographic Deployments Abstract This dissertation examines security vulnerabilities that arise due to communication failures and incentive mismatches along the path from cryptographic algorithm design to eventual deployment. I present six case studies demonstrating vulnerabilities in real-world cryptographic deployments. I also provide a framework with which to analyze the root cause of cryptographic vulnerabilities by characterizing them as failures in four key stages of the deployment process: algorithm design and cryptanalysis, standardization, implementation, and endpoint deployment. Each stage of this process is error-prone and influenced by various external factors, the incentives of which are not always aligned with security. I validate the framework by applying it to the six presented case studies, tracing each vulnerability back to communication

  • TLS) Protocol Configurations
    National Security Agency | Cybersecurity Information Eliminating Obsolete Transport Layer Security (TLS) Protocol Configurations Executive summary1 The National Security Agency (NSA) emphatically recommends replacing obsolete protocol configurations with ones that utilize strong encryption and authentication to protect all sensitive information. Over time, new attacks against Transport Layer Security (TLS) and the algorithms it uses have been discovered. Network connections employing obsolete protocols are at an elevated risk of exploitation by adversaries. Sensitive and valuable data requires strong protections within electronic systems and transmissions. TLS and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) were developed as protocols to create private, secure channels between a server and client using encryption and authentication. While the standards and most products have been updated, implementations often have not kept up. The accompanying, full-length guidance helps network administrators and security analysts make a plan on how to weed out obsolete TLS configurations in the environment by detecting, prioritizing, remediating, and then blocking obsolete TLS versions, cipher suites, and finally key exchange methods. This will also help organizations prepare for cryptographic agility to always stay ahead of malicious actors’ abilities and protect important information. Using obsolete encryption provides a false sense of security because it may look as though sensitive data is protected, even though it really is not. The NSA previously released urgent guidance indicating obsolete and otherwise weak TLS protocol implementations were being observed, and threat intelligence stating that “nation-state and sufficiently resourced actors are able to exploit these weak communications.” However, obsolete TLS configurations are still in use in U.S. Government systems. Obsolete configurations provide adversaries access to sensitive operational traffic using a variety of techniques, such as passive decryption and modification of traffic through man-in-the-middle attacks.
