An MQ/Code Cryptosystem Proposal

نویسنده

  • Leonard J. Schulman
چکیده

We describe a new trap-door (and PKC) proposal. The proposal is “multivariate quadratic” (relies on the hardness of solving systems of quadratic equations); it is also code-based, and uses the code-scrambling technique of McEliece (1978). However, in the new proposal, the errorcorrecting code is not revealed in the public key, which protects against the leading attacks on McEliece’s method.

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...

Reducing Key Length of the McEliece Cryptosystem

The McEliece cryptosystem is one of the oldest public-key cryptosystem ever designated. It is also the first public-key cryptosystem based on linear error-correcting codes. The main advantage of the McEliece cryptosystem is to have a very fast encryption and decryption functions but suffers from a major drawback. It requires a very large public key which makes it very difficult to use in many p...

Algebraic Cryptanalysis of Aes: an Overview

In this paper, we examine algebraic attacks on the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES, also known as Rijndael). We begin with a brief review of the history of AES, followed by a description of the AES algorithm. We then discuss the problem of solving systems of multivariate quadratic equations over arbitrary fields (the MQ problem), as well as some recent general methods for solving it, namely r...

MQ Challenge: Hardness Evaluation of Solving Multivariate Quadratic Problems

Multivariate Quadratic polynomial (MQ) problem serve as the basis of security for potentially post-quantum cryptosystems. The hardness of solving MQ problem depends on a number of parameters, most importantly the number of variables and the degree of the polynomials, as well as the number of equations, the size of the base field etc. We investigate the relation among these parameters and the ha...

A New Multivariate-based Ring Signature Scheme

Most of the existing ring signature schemes are based on traditional cryptography, such as RSA and discrete logarithm. Unfortunately these schemes would be broken if quantum computers emerge. The MQ-problem based PublicKey Cryptosystem (MPKC) is an important alternative to traditional PKCs for its potential to resist future attacks of quantum computers. In this paper, we proposed a new ring sig...
