Limits on Authenticated Encryption Use in TLS
نویسندگان
چکیده
This technical note presents limits on the security (as a function of the number of plaintext bytes encrypted and the number of forgery attempts made by an adversary) for the main Authenticated Encryption schemes available in TLS 1.2 and the draft of TLS 1.3. These limits are derived from security proofs for the considered schemes available in the literature. Our intention is to provide considered technical input to on-going discussions in the TLS Working Group of the IETF concerning, amongst other things, the necessity of adding a key update feature to the TLS 1.3 specification.

RSPAE: RFID Search Protocol based on Authenticated Encryption
Search protocols are among the main applications of RFID systems. Since a search protocol should be able to locate a certain tag among many tags, not only it should be secure against RFID threats but also it should be affordable. In this article, an RFID-based search protocol will be presented. We use an encryption technique that is referred to as authenticated encryption in order to boost the ...
متن کاملOn the Security of the TLS Protocol: A Systematic Analysis
TLS is the most widely-used cryptographic protocol on the Internet. It comprises the TLS Handshake Protocol, responsible for authentication and key establishment, and the TLS Record Protocol, which takes care of subsequent use of those keys to protect bulk data. In this paper, we present the most complete analysis to date of the TLS Handshake protocol and its application to data encryption (in ...
متن کاملRFC 5288 AES - GCM Cipher
This memo describes the use of the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) in Galois/Counter Mode (GCM) as a Transport Layer Security (TLS) authenticated encryption operation. GCM provides both confidentiality and data origin authentication, can be efficiently implemented in hardware for speeds of 10 gigabits per second and above, and is also well-suited to software implementations. This memo define...
متن کاملTag Size Does Matter: Attacks and Proofs for the TLS Record Protocol
We analyze the security of the TLS Record Protocol, a MACthen-Encode-then-Encrypt (MEE) scheme whose design targets confidentiality and integrity for application layer communications on the Internet. Our main results are twofold. First, we give a new distinguishing attack against TLS when variable length padding and short (truncated) MACs are used. This combination will arise when standardized ...
متن کاملFrom Stateless to Stateful: Generic Authentication and Authenticated Encryption Constructions with Application to TLS
Authentication and authenticated encryption with associated data (AEAD) are applied in cryptographic protocols to provide message integrity. The definitions in the literature and the constructions used in practice all protect against forgeries, but offer varying levels of protection against replays, reordering, and drops. As a result of the lack of a systematic hierarchy of authentication and A...
