NTRU Cryptosystem: Recent Developments and Emerging Mathematical Problems in Finite Polynomial Rings
نویسندگان
چکیده
The NTRU public-key cryptosystem, proposed in 1996 by Hoffstein, Pipher and Silverman, is a fast and practical alternative to classical schemes based on factorization or discrete logarithms. In contrast to the latter schemes, it offers quasi-optimal asymptotic efficiency and conjectured security against quantum computing attacks. The scheme is defined over finite polynomial rings, and its security analysis involves the study of natural statistical and computational problems defined over these rings. We survey several recent developments in both the security analysis and in the applications of NTRU and its variants, within the broader field of lattice-based cryptography. These developments include a provable relation between the security of NTRU and the computational hardness of worst-case instances of certain lattice problems, and the construction of fully homomorphic and multilinear cryptographic algorithms. In the process, we identify the underlying statistical and computational problems in finite rings.

ETRU: NTRU over the Eisenstein integers
NTRU is a public-key cryptosystem based on polynomial rings over Z. Replacing Z with the ring of Eisenstein integers yields ETRU. We prove through both theory and implementation that ETRU is faster and has smaller keys for the same or better level of security than does NTRU.
متن کاملA Non-commutative Cryptosystem Based on Quaternion Algebras
We propose BQTRU, a non-commutative NTRU-like cryptosystem over quaternion algebras. This cryptosystem uses bivariate polynomials as the underling ring. The multiplication operation in our cryptosystem can be performed with high speed using quaternions algebras over finite rings. As a consequence, the key generation and encryption process of our cryptosystem is faster than NTRU in comparable pa...
متن کاملEvaluation of Performance Characteristics of Polynomial based and Lattice based NRTU Cryptosystem
In order to achieve the security for the e-business application, generally, the organizations follow the cryptographic methods. The two widely accepted and used cryptographic methods are symmetric and asymmetric. The DES ideally belongs to the category of symmetric key cryptosystem and RSA, NTRU[3] belongs to the category of asymmetric key cryptosystem. NTRU (Nth degree truncated polynomial rin...
متن کاملQuantum Algorithms for Optimization and Polynomial Systems Solving over Finite Fields
In this paper, we give quantum algorithms for two fundamental computation problems: solving polynomial systems and optimization over finite fields. The quantum algorithms can solve these problems with any given probability and have complexities polynomial in the size of the input and the condition number of certain polynomial system related to the problem. So, we achieved exponential speedup fo...
متن کاملCryptanalysis of Middle Lattice on the Overstretched NTRU Problem for General Modulus Polynomial
The overstretched NTRU problem, which is the NTRU problem with super-polynomial size q in n, is one of the most important candidates for higher level cryptography. Unfortunately, Albrecht et al. in Crypto 2016 and Cheon et al. in ANTS 2016 proposed so-called subfield attacks which demonstrate that the overstretched NTRU problems with power-of-two cyclotomic modulus are not secure enough with gi...
