Tarjan Transcript Final with Timestamps
A.M. Turing Award Oral History Interview with Robert (Bob) Endre Tarjan by Roy Levin San Mateo, California July 12, 2017 Levin: My name is Roy Levin. Today is July 12th, 2017, and I’m in San Mateo, California at the home of Robert Tarjan, where I’ll be interviewing him for the ACM Turing Award Winners project. Good afternoon, Bob, and thanks for spending the time to talk to me today. Tarjan: You’re welcome. Levin: I’d like to start by talking about your early technical interests and where they came from. When do you first recall being interested in what we might call technical things? Tarjan: Well, the first thing I would say in that direction is my mom took me to the public library in Pomona, where I grew up, which opened up a huge world to me. I started reading science fiction books and stories. Originally, I wanted to be the first person on Mars, that was what I was thinking, and I got interested in astronomy, started reading a lot of science stuff. I got to junior high school and I had an amazing math teacher. His name was Mr. Wall. I had him two years, in the eighth and ninth grade. He was teaching the New Math to us before there was such a thing as “New Math.” He taught us Peano’s axioms and things like that. It was a wonderful thing for a kid like me who was really excited about science and mathematics and so on. The other thing that happened was I discovered Scientific American in the public library and started reading Martin Gardner’s columns on mathematical games and was completely fascinated. -

The Order of Encryption and Authentication for Protecting Communications (Or: How Secure Is SSL?)?
The Order of Encryption and Authentication for Protecting Communications (Or: How Secure is SSL?)? Hugo Krawczyk?? Abstract. We study the question of how to generically compose sym- metric encryption and authentication when building \secure channels" for the protection of communications over insecure networks. We show that any secure channels protocol designed to work with any combina- tion of secure encryption (against chosen plaintext attacks) and secure MAC must use the encrypt-then-authenticate method. We demonstrate this by showing that the other common methods of composing encryp- tion and authentication, including the authenticate-then-encrypt method used in SSL, are not generically secure. We show an example of an en- cryption function that provides (Shannon's) perfect secrecy but when combined with any MAC function under the authenticate-then-encrypt method yields a totally insecure protocol (for example, ¯nding passwords or credit card numbers transmitted under the protection of such protocol becomes an easy task for an active attacker). The same applies to the encrypt-and-authenticate method used in SSH. On the positive side we show that the authenticate-then-encrypt method is secure if the encryption method in use is either CBC mode (with an underlying secure block cipher) or a stream cipher (that xor the data with a random or pseudorandom pad). Thus, while we show the generic security of SSL to be broken, the current practical implementations of the protocol that use the above modes of encryption are safe. 1 Introduction The most widespread application of cryptography in the Internet these days is for implementing a secure channel between two end points and then exchanging information over that channel. -
Multi-Device for Signal
Multi-Device for Signal S´ebastienCampion3, Julien Devigne1, C´elineDuguey1;2, and Pierre-Alain Fouque2 1 DGA Maˆıtrisede l’information, Bruz, France [email protected] 2 Irisa, Rennes, France, [email protected], [email protected] Abstract. Nowadays, we spend our life juggling with many devices such as smartphones, tablets or laptops, and we expect to easily and efficiently switch between them without losing time or security. However, most ap- plications have been designed for single device usage. This is the case for secure instant messaging (SIM) services based on the Signal proto- col, that implements the Double Ratchet key exchange algorithm. While some adaptations, like the Sesame protocol released by the developers of Signal, have been proposed to fix this usability issue, they have not been designed as specific multi-device solutions and no security model has been formally defined either. In addition, even though the group key exchange problematic appears related to the multi-device case, group solutions are too generic and do not take into account some properties of the multi-device setting. Indeed, the fact that all devices belong to a single user can be exploited to build more efficient solutions. In this paper, we propose a Multi-Device Instant Messaging protocol based on Signal, ensuring all the security properties of the original Signal. Keywords: cryptography, secure instant messaging, ratchet, multi-device 1 Introduction 1.1 Context Over the last years, secure instant messaging has become a key application ac- cessible on smartphones. In parallel, more and more people started using several devices - a smartphone, a tablet or a laptop - to communicate. -

A Novel Asymmetric Hyperchaotic Image Encryption Scheme Based on Elliptic Curve Cryptography
applied sciences Article A Novel Asymmetric Hyperchaotic Image Encryption Scheme Based on Elliptic Curve Cryptography Haotian Liang , Guidong Zhang *, Wenjin Hou, Pinyi Huang, Bo Liu and Shouliang Li * School of Information Science and Engineering, Lanzhou University, Lanzhou 730000, China; [email protected] (H.L.); [email protected] (W.H.); [email protected] (P.H.); [email protected] (B.L.) * Correspondence: [email protected] (G.Z.); [email protected] (S.L.); Tel.: +86-185-0948-7799 (S.L.) Abstract: Most of the image encryption schemes based on chaos have so far employed symmetric key cryptography, which leads to a situation where the key cannot be transmitted in public channels, thus limiting their extended application. Based on the elliptic curve cryptography (ECC), we proposed a public key image encryption method where the hash value derived from the plain image was encrypted by ECC. Furthermore, during image permutation, a novel algorithm based on different- sized block was proposed. The plain image was firstly divided into five planes according to the amount of information contained in different bits: the combination of the low 4 bits, and other four planes of high 4 bits respectively. Second, for different planes, the corresponding method of block partition was followed by the rule that the higher the bit plane, the smaller the size of the partitioned block as a basic unit for permutation. In the diffusion phase, the used hyperchaotic sequences in permutation were applied to improve the efficiency. Lots of experimental simulations and cryptanalyses were implemented in which the NPCR and UACI are 99.6124% and 33.4600% Citation: Liang, H.; Zhang, G.; Hou, respectively, which all suggested that it can effectively resist statistical analysis attacks and chosen W.; Huang, P.; Liu, B.; Li, S. -
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. -
Key Improvements to XTR

Verheul2 1 Citibank, N.A., Technical University Eindhoven, 1 North Gate Road, Mendham, NJ 07945-3104, U.S.A., [email protected] 2 PricewaterhouseCoopers, GRMS Crypto Group, Goudsbloemstraat 14, 5644 KE Eindhoven, The Netherlands, Eric.Verheul@[nl.pwcglobal.com, pobox.com] Abstract. This paper describes improved methods for XTR key rep- resentation and parameter generation (cf. [4]). If the ¯eld characteristic is properly chosen, the size of the XTR public key for signature appli- cations can be reduced by a factor of three at the cost of a small one time computation for the recipient of the key. Furthermore, the para- meter set-up for an XTR system can be simpli¯ed because the trace of a proper subgroup generator can, with very high probability, be com- puted directly, thus avoiding the probabilistic approach from [4]. These non-trivial extensions further enhance the practical potential of XTR. 1 Introduction In [1] it was shown that conjugates of elements of a subgroup of GF(p6)¤ of order 2 dividing Á6(p) = p ¡ p + 1 can be represented using 2 log2(p) bits, as opposed to the 6 log2(p) bits that would be required for their traditional representation. In [4] an improved version of the method from [1] was introduced that achieves the same communication advantage at a much lower computational cost. The resulting representation method is referred to as XTR, which stands for E±cient and Compact Subgroup Trace Representation. -
