Symmetric Cryptosystems and Symmetric Key Management

چکیده
Since the earliest days of necessity for secret transmission of messages, which date back to thousands years BCE, different methods have been used to transfer the message between two parties. These days, systematic ways for transmitting secret information are used, and the fear of cracking the message is increasing with the development of breaking algorithms for different encryption techniques. The systematic way of encrypting and decrypting a message is summarized in the definition of a cryptosystems.

Asymmetric Cryptosystems
Throughout the history of cryptography, hundreds of cryptosystems have been developed. The earliest ones, as well as many later ones, relied on the complete secrecy in transferring keys between the sender and recipient. These kinds of systems, called secret key cryptosystem, have just a single key which is used for both encryption and decryption; therefore, these systems are more frequently kno...
متن کاملAn efficient symmetric polynomial-based key establishment protocol for wireless sensor networks
An essential requirement for providing secure services in wireless sensor networks is the ability to establish pairwise keys among sensors. Due to resource constraints on the sensors, the key establishment scheme should not create significant overhead. To date, several key establishment schemes have been proposed. Some of these have appropriate connectivity and resistance against key exposure, ...

** (West Bengal University of Technology, West Bengal, India) *** (West Bengal State University, West Bengal, India) ABSTRACT Key management represents a major and the most sensitive part of cryptographic systems. It includes key generation, key distribution, key storage, and key deletion. It is also considered the hardest part of cryptography. Designing secure cryptographic algorithms is hard,...
متن کاملChaos-Based Symmetric Key Cryptosystems
Chaos theory is the study of dynamical systems that are highly sensitive to initial conditions and exhibit seemingly random behavior. From the perspective of cryptography and information security, randomness generated from entirely deterministic systems is a very appealing property. As such, the application of chaos in modern cryptography has been a topic of much research and debate for over a ...
