  • Fault Analysis of the Ntrusign Digital Signature Scheme
    Cryptogr. Commun. (2012) 4:131–144 DOI 10.1007/s12095-011-0061-3 Fault analysis of the NTRUSign digital signature scheme Abdel Alim Kamal · Amr M. Youssef Received: 11 December 2010 / Accepted: 14 December 2011 / Published online: 6 January 2012 © Springer Science+Business Media, LLC 2012 Abstract We present a fault analysis of the NTRUSign digital signature scheme. The utilized fault model is the one in which the attacker is assumed to be able to fault a small number of coefficients in a specific polynomial during the signing process but cannot control the exact location of the injected transient faults. For NTRUsign with parameters (N, q = pl, B, standard, N ), when the attacker is able to skip the norm-bound signature checking step, our attack needs one fault, ≈ − 1 (( )t) succeeds with probability 1 p and requires O qN steps when the number of faulted polynomial coefficients is upper bounded by t. The attack is also applicable to NTRUSign utilizing the transpose NTRU lattice but it requires double the number of fault injections. Different countermeasures against the proposed attack are investigated.

    Secure Instant Messenger User Manual v.1.3 (“NTRU Release”) http://goldbug.sf.net 1 What is GoldBug? GoldBug is a secure Instant Messenger. You can be sure with using GoldBug (GB), that no third party can look into your chat communication. Private user-to-user communication remains private. GoldBug therefore uses strong multi-encryption with different layers of modern encryption technologies of well known and revised crypto libraries (like libgcrypt (GnuPG) and OpenSSL). For example it generates more than 8 public / private encryption keys based on RSA or NTRU or ElGamal. The app offers as well decentral and encrypted Email and decentral public E*IRC-Chat. As in every Messenger, you can share and transfer files. With tools like Rosetta Cryptopad and/or the File-Encryption tool you can convert text and files into ciphertext. 2 Why encryption matters: Today mostly every WIFI is protected with a password. In a few years as well every plaintext message or email to friends over the internet will be encrypted too. It is not a question to have something to hide or not, • it is a question to control by yourself the security of your communications - or having it controled by others. • It‘ s a question of free thinking and • taking away the presumption of innocence.*) • Democracy requires the thinking and debate of alternatives in private and public.

  • Flaws in Applying Proof Methodologies to Signature Schemes
    Flaws in Applying Proof Methodologies to Signature Schemes Jacques Stern1?, David Pointcheval1, John Malone-Lee2, and Nigel P. Smart2 1 D´ept d'Informatique, ENS { CNRS, 45 rue d'Ulm, 75230 Paris Cedex 05, France. E-mail: fJacques.Stern,[email protected] URL: http://www.di.ens.fr/~fstern,pointcheg 2 Computer Science Dept, Woodland Road, University of Bristol, BS8 1UB, UK. E-mail: fmalone, [email protected] URL: http://www.cs.bris.ac.uk/~fmalone,nigelg Abstract. Methods from provable security, developed over the last twenty years, have been recently extensively used to support emerging standards. However, the fact that proofs also need time to be validated through public discussion was somehow overlooked. This became clear when Shoup found that there was a gap in the widely believed security proof of OAEP against adaptive chosen-ciphertext attacks. We give more examples, showing that provable security is more subtle than it at first appears. Our examples are in the area of signature schemes: one is related to the security proof of ESIGN and the other two to the security proof of ECDSA. We found that the ESIGN proof does not hold in the usual model of security, but in a more restricted one. Concerning ECDSA, both examples are based on the concept of duplication: one shows how to manufacture ECDSA keys that allow for two distinct messages with identical signatures, a duplicate signature; the other shows that from any message-signature pair, one can derive a second signature of the same message, the malleability. The security proof provided by Brown [7] does not account for our first example while it surprisingly rules out malleabil- ity, thus offering a proof of a property, non-malleability, that the actual scheme does not possess.

Introduction to Digital Signatures 3. RSA digital signature scheme 4. ElGamal digital signature scheme 5. Schnoor Digital signature scheme 6. The Digital signature algorithm 1 Review: Message Authentication Codes (MACs) Last time, we started our discussion about message authentication codes (MACs), and we defined a MAC as a code that is appended to a message in order to provide message integrity1. In MACs, communicating parties share a secret key that is used to generate the code, and if a MAC is well-designed, then only a user with the shared key can compute a valid MAC for a given message. Two parties Alice and Bob who share a key K can use a MAC for message integrity as follows (illustrated in Figure 1): 1. Alice computes a MAC for message m as y = MAC(K; m), and sends pair (m; y) through the channel to Bob. 2. Bob receives (m; y). Using the secret key, Bob computes MAC(K; m) and checks y =? MAC(K; m). 3. If y = MAC(K; m), then Bob accepts the message. Otherwise, Bob rejects the message, since the message and MAC are inconsistent. Alice Bob MAC Generation Computes y = MAC(K,m) from secret key K and message m [m, y] MAC Verification Extracts m, computes y’=MAC(K,m) If y + y’ =0, accept the message If y + y’≠ 0, discard the message Fig.

  • A Survey of Elliptic Curve Cryptosystems, Part I: Introductory San C
    NAS Technical Report - NAS-03-012 August 2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A Survey of Elliptic Curve Cryptosystems, Part I: Introductory San C. Vo NASA Advanced Supercomputing (NAS) Division – Research Branch (INR) Information Sciences & Technology Directorate NASA Ames Research Center, Moffett Field, CA 94043 Introduction The theory of elliptic curves is a classical topic in many branches of algebra and number theory, but recently it is receiving more attention in cryptography. An elliptic curve is a two-dimensional (planar) curve defined by an equation involving a cubic power of coordinate x and a square power of coordinate y. One class of these curves is elliptic curves over finite fields, also called Galois fields. These elliptic curves are finite groups with special structures, which can play naturally, and even more flexibly, the roles of the modulus groups in the discrete logarithm problems. Elliptic curves have been used actively in designing many mathematical, computational and cryptographic algorithms, such as integer factoring, primality proving, public key cryptosystems and pseudo-random number generators, etc. Essentially, elliptic curve cryptosystems promise a better future for cryptography: more security against powerful attacks in the era of computing capability. Many research papers in Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) have been published by researchers all over the world. However, the idea of using elliptic curves in cryptography is still considered a difficult concept and is neither widely accepted nor understood by typical technical people. The problem may stem from the fact that there is a large gap between the theoretical mathematics of elliptic curves and the applications of elliptic curves in cryptography. A large amount of ECC literature was collected and organized in the development of this survey on ECC.

  • Elgamal Type Signature Schemes for N-Dimensional Vector Spaces
    ElGamal type signature schemes for n-dimensional vector spaces Iwan M. Duursmay and Seung Kook Parky Abstract We generalize the ElGamal signature scheme for cyclic groups to a signature scheme for n-dimensional vector spaces. The higher dimensional version is based on the untractability of the vector decomposition problem (VDP). Yoshida has shown that under certain conditions, the VDP on a two-dimensional vector space is at least as hard as the computational Di±e-Hellman problem (CDHP) on a one-dimensional subspace. 1 Introduction Intractable mathematical problems such as the integer factorization problem, the dis- crete logarithm problem (DLP), and the computational Di±e-Hellman problem (CDHP) are being used to provide secure protocols for cryptosystems. A new hard problem which is called the vector decomposition problem (VDP) was proposed in [8]. Yoshida [7] states the conditions that are required for the VDP on a two-dimensional vector space to be at least as hard as the CDHP on a one-dimensional subspace. The VDP on a two-dimensional vector space can serve as the underlying intractable problem for cryptographic protocols but the only protocol presented so far that uses the VDP is watermarking [7]. In this paper we present a signature scheme based on VDP and we generalize the ElGamal signature scheme for cyclic groups to a signature scheme for n- dimensional vector spaces. Algorithms of the generalized ElGamal signature scheme, DSA and ECDSA are given in Section 2. In Section 3 we state the de¯nitions of CDHP and VDP. Yoshida's conditions for the VDP on a two-dimensional vector space to be at least as hard as the CDHP on a one-dimensional subspace are stated without proof.
