Secret Agents Leave Big Footprints: How to Plant a Cryptographic Trapdoor, and Why You Might Not Get Away with It

چکیده
This paper investigates whether optimisation techniques can be used to evolve artifacts of cryptographic significance which are apparently secure, but which have hidden properties that may facilitate cryptanalysis. We show how this might be done and how such sneaky use of optimisation may be detected.

متن کاملTrapdoor commitment schemes and their applications
Look, matey, I know a dead parrot when I see one, and I'm looking at one right now. Preface There are certainly one or two things about cryptography I have learned during my Ph.D. time. One thing I have noticed is that trapdoor commitments are a remarkable catalyst for the design of provably secure cryptographic protocols. Introduction Informally, commitment schemes can be described by lockable...

متن کاملA review of agent-based modeling (ABM) concepts and some of its main applications in management science
We live in a very complex world where we face complex phenomena such as social norms and new technologies. To deal with such phenomena, social scientists often use reductionism approach where they reduce them to some lower-lever variables and model the relationships among them through a scheme of equations. This approach that is called equation based modeling (EBM) has some basic weaknesses in ...
