As his students, we learnt from him not only scientific knowledge, but also the ethics in the life; not only through the lectures in the serious classroom, but also through the conversations outside the campus over the world, politics, economics, life. We all enjoyed the time of listening your lectures and we are proud to be your students. Since a quarter of century, teacher Xiao has educated hundreds of us in the fields of mathematics, information theory, communication, cryptology, etc. Today, the “old-classmates” have grown up into the society; many of them are taking the key positions all over the world. Especially, when we talk about the “Xidian branch schools” are spreading the seeds in many places like Beijing, Shanghai, ... I think he would be proud of the intellect, energy and enthusiasm that he gave us during our campus life and would be especially proud of his achievements and the achievements that his students have made since our Xidian life. Best wishes to Teacher Xiao’s seventieth birthday! XUEJIA LAI, ZURICH, SWITZERLAND This page intentionally left blank Preface This workshop entitled “Progress on Cryptography: 25 Year of Cryptography in China” is being held during the celebration of Professor Guozhen Xiao’s 70th birthday. This proceeding is a birthday gift from all of his current and former graduate students, who have had the pleasure of being supervised by Professor Xiao during the last 25 years. Cryptography, in Chinese, consists of two characters meaning “secret cod- ing”. Thanks to Ch’in Chiu-Shao and his successors, the Chinese Remainder Theorem became a cornerstone of public key cryptography. Today, as we observe the constant usage of high-speed computers interconnected via the In- ternet, we realize that cryptography and its related applications have developed far beyond “secret coding”. China, which is rapidly developing in all areas of technology, is also writing a new page of history in cryptography. As more and more Chinese become recognized as leading researchers in a variety of topics in cryptography, it is not surprising that many of them are professor Xiao’s former students. We will never forget a moment in the late 1970’s, during the time when China was just opening its door to the world, when Professor Xiao explained the idea of public key cryptography at a lecture. We were so fascinated that many of us have since devoted our careers to cryptography research and applications. Professor Xiao had started a weekly cryptography seminar, where we discussed newly published cryptography research papers from all over the world. We greatly benefited by the method he taught us, which was to catch the main ideas of each piece of research work. He also influenced us deeply by his method of approaching a creative breakthrough. As he said, “only when you can stand on the top of the existing results, just as you stand on the highest peak to look at all the mountains, can you figure out where to go next.” With this advice, we took our first step in research by thoroughly understanding other people’s work. As a result, many of us generated our first few pieces of work through the seminars. “Professor Xiao’s graduate students” as a group, has been attracting the attention of the academic cryptography community since the first ChinaCrypt in 1984, at which his first few graduate students presented some very impressive xiv PROGRESS ON CRYPTOGRAPHY work. After 20 years, the research interests of the group have extended to a variety of areas in cryptography. This proceeding includes 32 papers. These papers cover a range of topics, from mathematical results of cryptography to practical applications. This proceeding includes a sample of research conducted by Professor Xiao’s former and current graduate students. In China, we use the term “peaches and plums” to refer to “pupils and disci- ples”. Now Professor Xiao’s peaches and plums have spread all over the world. We are recognized as a special group in the cryptography community with not only our distinguished achievements but also our outstanding spirit. Many peo- ple have asked about the underlying motivation behind this quarter-century leg- end in cryptography research, made by professor Xiao and his students. Among all possibilities, I would consider independent thinking and honest attitude as the most crucial aspects. Professor Xiao guided us not only to a fascinating scientific field where many of us made our life-long careers but also to a realm of thought which made us as who we are today. Please join me in wishing Professor Xiao a Happy 70th Birthday.

  • 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.

  • Hash Functions from Sigma Protocols and Improvements to VSH
    Hash Functions from Sigma Protocols and Improvements to VSH Mihir Bellare and Todor Ristov Department of Computer Science and Engineering, University of California San Diego, 9500 Gilman Drive, La Jolla, CA 92093-0404, USA. URL: www-cse.ucsd.edu/users/mihir, www-cse.ucsd.edu/users/tristov Abstract. We present a general way to get a provably collision-resistant hash function from any (suitable) Σ-protocol. This enables us to both get new designs and to unify and improve previous work. In the first category, we obtain, via a modified version of the Fiat-Shamir proto- col, the fastest known hash function that is provably collision-resistant based on the standard factoring assumption. In the second category, we provide a modified version VSH* of VSH which is faster when hash- ing short messages. (Most Internet packets are short.) We also show that Σ-hash functions are chameleon, thereby obtaining several new and efficient chameleon hash functions with applications to on-line/off-line signing, chameleon signatures and designated-verifier signatures. 1 Introduction The failure of popular hash functions MD5 and SHA-1 [42, 43] lends an impetus to the search for new ones. The contention of our paper is that there will be a \niche" market for proven-secure even if not-so-fast hash functions. Towards this we provide a general paradigm that yields hash functions provably secure under number-theoretic assumptions, and also unifies, clarifies and improves previous constructs. Our hash functions have extra features such as being chameleon [25]. Let us now look at all this in more detail.

  • 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.

  • Implementation and Evaluation of Secure Industrial Ethernet Communication
    Implementation and Evaluation of Secure Industrial Ethernet Communication Master of Science Thesis, Communication Engineering KAN YU Department of Signals and Systems CHALMERS UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY Göteborg, Sweden, August 2010 Page 2/88 Abstract Automation network security becomes increasingly important due to the introduction of Ethernet- based fieldbus protocols and cryptographic algorithms play a vital important role in these protocols. Choosing the most suitable cryptographic algorithms under consideration of security and performance according to different application cases is essential. In this thesis, we first present a comprehensive survey of most commonly used cryptographic algorithms which can be applied in automation networks and then identify our candidates based on existing literature and related works for further evaluation in ARM platform for industrial purpose. Finally, according to our evaluation results, we choose suitable algorithms for different applications: for symmetric algorithms, Twofish is recommended for best performance and eXtended Tiny Encryption Algorithm (XTEA) and Corrected Block Tiny Encryption Algorithm (XXTEA) are recommended for the least footprint; for Message Authentication Code (MAC) algorithms, UMAC is strongly recommended for excellent speed; for asymmetric algorithms, Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) has much better performance than RSA at the same security level in our platform.
