چکیده

This paper revisits a public key cryptosystem which is based on finite Church-Rosser string-rewriting systems. We consider some ideas for cryptanalysis and discuss issues concerning practical usage. It turns out that without changing crucial details of key generation this cryptosystem does not offer acceptable cryptographic security. We also provide the source code of our rudimentary implementation, if someone would like to use it for further cryptanalysis.

Completion Attacks and Weak Keys of Oleshchuk's Public Key Cryptosystem

This paper revisits a public key cryptosystem which is based on finite string-rewriting systems. We consider a new approach for cryptanalysis of such proposals—the so-called completion attack. If a particular kind of weak key is generated, then a passive adversary is able to retrieve secret messages with a significant probability. Our idea can be applied to other rewriting based cryptosystems a...

QTRU: quaternionic version of the NTRU public-key cryptosystems

In this paper we will construct a lattice-based public-key cryptosystem using non-commutative quaternion algebra, and since its lattice does not fully fit within Circular and Convolutional Modular Lattice (CCML), we prove it is arguably more secure than the existing lattice-based cryptosystems such as NTRU. As in NTRU, the proposed public-key cryptosystem relies for its inherent securi...

EEH: AGGH-like public key cryptosystem over the eisenstein integers using polynomial representations

GGH class of public-key cryptosystems relies on computational problems based on the closest vector problem (CVP) in lattices for their security. The subject of lattice based cryptography is very active and there have recently been new ideas that revolutionized the field. We present EEH, a GGH-Like public key cryptosystem based on the Eisenstein integers Z [ζ3] where ζ3 is a primitive...

Improving the Rao-Nam secret key cryptosystem using regular EDF-QC-LDPC codes

This paper proposes an efficient joint secret key encryption-channel coding cryptosystem, based on regular Extended Difference Family Quasi-Cyclic Low-Density Parity-Check codes. The key length of the proposed cryptosystem decreases up to 85 percent using a new efficient compression algorithm. Cryptanalytic methods show that the improved cryptosystem has a significant security advantage over Ra...

Quantum McEliece public-key cryptosystem

The McEliece cryptosystem is one of the best-known (classical) public-key cryptosystems, which is based on algebraic coding theory. In this paper, we present a quantum analogue of the classical McEliece cryptosystem. Our quantumMcEliece public-key cryptosystem is based on the theory of stabilizer codes and has the key generation, encryption and decryption algorithms similar to those in the clas...
