New Subliminal Channel Embedded in the ESIGN
نویسنده
چکیده
The subliminal channel is one of the methods for hiding a message in other messages. Simmons has shown conjectures on the upper bound to the bandwidth of a subliminal channel. This paper proposes a new broad-band subliminal channel embedded in the ESIGN. The bandwidth of the proposed subliminal channel is wider than that of the previous one, and it exceeds the upper bound that Simmons has conjectured. Namely, we disprove the conjectures due to Simmons. We also show that it is possible to construct the subliminal channel even if the transmitter and the subliminal receiver do not have any key in common. key words: cryptography, digital signature, subliminal channel, ESIGN

On Subliminal Channels in Deterministic Signature Schemes
Subliminal channels in randomized signature algorithms like the DSA are well-known. However, much less seems to be known about this issue when dealing with deterministic schemes. Using some known signature schemes like ESIGN-D and SFLASH as example, we illustrate the problem of subliminal channels in non-interactive deterministic signature algorithms. Based on an appropriate formalization, a de...
متن کاملOn the Channel Capacity of Narrow-Band Subliminal Channels
Subliminal channels, discovered by Simmons, yield a possibility to transmit covert messages by embedding them in cryptographic digital data, such as (EC)DSA signatures. The embedded messages are used for transmitting important information, or as watermarks or imprints of the data. Anyone can use or abuse these channels very easily because most cryptographic digital data widely used in the Inter...
متن کاملError-correcting codes for authentication and subliminal channels
The application of coding theory to security scenarios is studied. Authentication systems are introduced that are based on algebraic codes and provide high protection against an intruder's impersonation and substitution attacks. It is shown that a subliminal channel can be embedded into these systems and that there is a trade-off between the authentication capability, subliminal capacity and er...

In this design an optical ring resonator are embedded between two Horizontal input and output waveguides which has 4 orbitals around the center of the resonator so that each orbital consists of 8 rods with different size in which radius of larger orbitals rods are bigger than radius of smaller orbitals rods. The analysis of simulation results showed the proposed filter has the transmission effi...
متن کاملSelf-synchronized message randomization methods for subliminal channels
When one transmits a secret message sequence on a random number type subliminal channel, he/she has to convert the secret message sequence into a (practically) indistinguishable random number sequence rst, and then embeds it on a carrier sequence. Otherwise the carrier sequence could be distinguished from one that contains no secret message. If others can distinguish whether a secret message se...
