Walnut Digital Signature AlgorithmTM: A lightweight, quantum-resistant signature scheme for use in passive, low-power, and IoT devices

چکیده

Historically “Lightweight Cryptography” has focused on symmetric schemes, yet asymmetric methods can also work effectively in these environments. Specifically, the Walnut Digital Signature Algorithm (WalnutDSA) provides a public-key signature scheme that verifies signatures significantly faster than ECC in both software and hardware, even in small, constrained environments and is resistant to all known attacks, both conventional and quantum. Specifically, WalnutDSA can validate a signature anywhere from 32 to 178 times faster than ECC using less ROM/RAM or fewer gates. This presentation previews the Walnut Digital Signature Algorithm, performance results, and shows how it can be applied to real-world uses.

WalnutDSA: A Quantum-Resistant Digital Signature Algorithm

In 2005 I. Anshel, M. Anshel, D. Goldfeld, and S. Lemieux introduced E-Multiplication, a quantum-resistant, group-theoretic, one-way function which can be used as a basis for many different cryptographic applications. This one-way function was specifically designed for constrained devices, running extremely quickly and requiring very little code. This paper introduces WalnutDSA, a new E-Multipl...

Efficiently Validating Aggregated IoT Data Integrity

We address the problem of validating the integrity of data aggregated in applications that run on the Internet of Things (IoT). When data from multiple sources is sent to a single receiver, the receiver needs to efficiently verify the authenticity and integrity of data. For example, sensors from multiple IoT devices would send the measurements to a gateway for data aggregation and/or processing...

ECDSA on Things: IoT Integrity Protection in Practise

This paper documents some experiences and lessons learned during the development of an IoT security application for the EU-funded project RERUM. The application provides sensor data with end-to-end integrity protection through elliptic curve digital signatures (ECDSA). Here, our focus is on the cost in terms of hardware, runtime and powerconsumption in a real-world trials scenario. We show that...

An efficient blind signature scheme based on the elliptic curve discrete logarithm problem

Elliptic Curve Cryptosystems (ECC) have recently received significant attention by researchers due to their high performance such as low computational cost and small key size. In this paper a novel untraceable blind signature scheme is presented. Since the security of proposed method is based on difficulty of solving discrete logarithm over an elliptic curve, performance of the proposed scheme ...
