Efficient Implementations of Post-quantum Isogeny-based Cryptography

Unknown Date (has links)
Quantum computers are envisioned to be able to solve mathematical problems which are currently unsolvable for conventional computers, because of their exceptional computational power from quantum mechanics. Therefore, if quantum computers are ever built in large scale, they will certainly be able to solve many classical exponential complexity problems such as the hard problems which the current public key cryptography is constructed upon. To counteract this problem, the design of post-quantum cryptography protocols is necessary to preserve the security in the presence of quantum adversaries. Regardless of whether we can estimate the exact time for the advent of the quantum computing era, security protocols are required to be resistant against potentially-malicious power of quantum computing. In this thesis, the main focus is on the sperformance improvement of one of the potential PQC candidates, isogeny-based cryptography. Several optimized implementations of cryptography applications based on this primitive are presented. From a general viewpoint, the proposed methods, implementation techniques and libraries have a practical impact on the performance evaluation of post-quantum cryptography schemes in a wide range of applications. In particular, the provided benchmarks and optimizations on ARM-powered processors provide a reference for comparison and evaluation of isogeny-based cryptography with other post-quantum candidates during the first round of NIST's PQC standardization process. / Includes bibliography. / Dissertation (Ph.D.)--Florida Atlantic University, 2018. / FAU Electronic Theses and Dissertations Collection

No. of bitstreams: 1 OnikiChiquito_Izumi_M.pdf: 3419663 bytes, checksum: 5f621e251ebc62429a85ff141091f7f5 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2012 / Resumo: Na área de Segurança da Informação, controle de acesso diz respeito á habilidade de permitir ou negar a utilização de determinados recursos, sejam eles informações, dispositivos, serviços etc., por parte de um indivíduo. Protocolos de identificação correspondem a algoritmos criptográficos que permitem verificar, com certo grau de confiança, se a alegação de um indivíduo a respeito de sua identidade é verdadeira. Dessa forma, pode-se prover acesso controlado e conceder privilégios de utilização de recursos somente a entidades ou indivíduos cuja identidade tenha sido comprovada. Algoritmos baseados em reticulados, de uma forma geral, têm despertado particular interesse em aplicações criptográficas, devido à sua provável resistência a ataques empregando computadores quânticos, ao contrário dos criptossistemas baseados em problemas da Teoria dos Números. Por esse motivo, nos _últimos anos, tem-se buscado desenvolver protocolos de identificação cuja segurança esteja relacionada a problemas envolvendo reticulados. Neste trabalho, foram abordadas as principais propostas recentes de protocolos de identificação baseados em reticulados. Além da apresentação dos algoritmos, é feita uma análise comparativa entre protocolos selecionados, incorporando dados experimentais de execução. A etapa de implementação aqui apresentada tem também como finalidade suprir a ausência de resultados experimentais para essa categoria de protocolos, no sentido de iniciar um processo de validação para uso dos algoritmos em aplicações práticas. Questões como possibilidades de otimização e expectativas para o futuro da área também são discutidas / Abstract: One of the main concerns of the field of Information Security is access control, which refers to the restriction of access to several kinds of resources, such as data, places, devices, services and others. Identification schemes are cryptographic algorithms that allow verifying with some level of certainty if an identity claim is legitimate. Therefore, such schemes make possible to provide access control and grant privileges only to authorized individuals whose identities have been previously verified. Lattice-based algorithms are particularly interesting as the cryptography community believes them to remain secure even to quantum computers attacks, as opposite to some cryptosystems used today based on Number Theory problems. For this reason, identification schemes based on lattices have received growing attention lately. In this work, we address the main recent developments of lattice-based identification schemes. After introducing the algorithms, we make a comparative analysis of the selected schemes, using experimental data collected from our own implementation of the algorithms. The implementation phase also aims to help validating these schemes for practical use, since to this date there were practically no experimental results available. Other issues, like optimization possibilities and the future of the area, are also addressed in this work / Mestrado / Ciência da Computação / Mestra em Ciência da Computação

Reduction-Respecting Parameters for Lattice-Based Cryptosystems

Gates, Fletcher January 2018 (has links)
One attractive feature of lattice-based cryptosystems is the existence of security reductions relating the difficulty of breaking the cryptosystem to the difficulty of solving variants of the shortest vector problem (Regev, STOC 2005; Peikert, ePrint 2008). As there are no known polynomial-time algorithms which solve these lattice problems, this implies the asymptotic security of the cryptosystem. However, current lattice-based cryptosystems using the learning with errors (LWE) problem select parameters for which the reduction to the underlying lattice problem gives no meaningful assurance of concrete security. We analyze the runtime of the algorithm constructed in the reductions and select parameters for a cryptosystem under which the reductions give 128-bit security. While the resulting LWE-based cryptosystem is somewhat cumbersome, requiring a dimension of n = 1460, this is less than 2 times the dimension in the recently proposed Frodo cryptosystem (Bos et al., ACM CCS 2016), and could be implemented without catastrophic damage to communication times. We also investigate the runtime necessary for a reduction to give meaningful security assurances for current cryptosystems. / Thesis / Master of Science (MSc) / The advent of quantum computing poses a serious threat to modern cryptography, as most cryptosystems in use today are vulnerable to attacks by quantum algorithms. Recently proposed cryptosystems based on lattices are conjectured to be resistant to attacks by quantum computers. These cryptosystems also have a conditional security guarantee: if the cryptosystem can be broken by an attack, then a reduction exists which uses that attack to solve variants of the shortest vector problem (Regev, STOC 2005; Peikert, ePrint 2008). As these problems have no known efficient solutions, breaking the cryptosystem should be hard. However this guarantee only holds if the cryptosystem is constructed using parameters which satisfy conditions given in the reduction. Current proposals do not do this, and so cannot claim even a conditional security guarantee. We analyze two reductions and select parameters for a cryptosystem which satisfy these conditions. We also investigate the runtime necessary for a reduction to give meaningful security assurances for current cryptosystems.

Resource-constrained and Resource-efficient Modern Cryptosystem Design

Aysu, Aydin 20 July 2016 (has links)
In the context of a system design, resource-constraints refer to severe restrictions on allowable resources, while resource-efficiency is the capability to achieve a desired performance and, at the same time, to reduce wasting resources. To design for low-cost platforms, these fundamental concepts are useful under different scenarios and they call for different approaches, yet they are often mixed. Resource-constrained systems require aggressive optimizations, even at the expense of performance, to meet the stringent resource limitations. On the other hand, resource-efficient systems need a careful trade-off between resources and performance, to achieve the best possible combination. Designing systems for resource-constraints with the optimizations for resource-efficiency, or vice versa, can result in a suboptimal solution. Using modern cryptographic applications as the driving domain, I first distinguish resource-constraints from resource-efficiency. Then, I introduce the recurring strategies to handle these cases and apply them on modern cryptosystem designs. I illustrate that by clarifying the application context, and then by using appropriate strategies, it is possible to push the envelope on what is perceived as achievable, by up to two orders-of-magnitude. In the first part of this dissertation, I focus on resource-constrained modern cryptosystems. The driving application is Physical Unclonable Function (PUF) based symmetric-key authentication. I first propose the smallest block cipher in 128-bit security level. Then, I show how to systematically extend this design into the smallest application-specific instruction set processor for PUF-based authentication protocols. I conclude this part by proposing a compact method to combine multiple PUF components within a system into a single device identifier. In the second part of this dissertation, I focus on resource-efficient modern cryptosystems. The driving application is post-quantum public-key schemes. I first demonstrate energy-efficient computing techniques for post-quantum digital signatures. Then, I propose an area-efficient partitioning and a Hardware/Software codesign for its implementation. The results of these implemented modern cryptosystems validate the advantage of my approach by quantifying the drastic improvements over the previous best. / Ph. D.

Métodos eficientes para criptografia baseada em reticulados. / Efficient methods for lattice-based cryptography.

Barguil, João Marcos de Mattos 14 August 2015 (has links)
Reticulados têm sido aplicados de diferentes maneiras em criptografia. Inicialmente utilizados para a destruição de criptossistemas, eles foram posteriormente aplicados na construção de novos esquemas, incluindo criptossistemas assimétricos, esquemas de assinatura cega e os primeiros métodos para encriptação completamente homomórfica. Contudo, seu desempenho ainda é proibitivamente lenta em muitos casos. Neste trabalho, expandimos técnicas originalmente desenvolvidas para encriptação homomórfica, tornando-as mais genéricas e aplicando-as no esquema GGH-YK-M, um esquema de encriptação de chave pública, e no esquema LMSV, a única construção homomórfica que não sucumbiu a ataques de recuperação de chaves IND-CCA1 até o momento. Em nossos testes, reduzimos o tamanho das chaves do GGH-YK-M em uma ordem de complexidade, especificamente, de O(n2 lg n) para O(n lg n), onde n é um parâmetro público do esquema. A nova técnica também atinge processamento mais rápido em todas as operações envolvidas em um criptossistema assimétrico, isto é, geração de chaves, encriptação e decriptação. A melhora mais significativa é na geração de chaves, que se torna mais de 3 ordens de magnitude mais rápida que resultados anteriores, enquanto a encriptação se torna por volta de 2 ordens de magnitude mais rápida. Para decriptação, nossa implementação é dez vezes mais rápida que a literatura. Também mostramos que é possível aumentar a segurança do esquema LMSV contra os ataques quânticos de recuperação de chaves recentemente publicados pela agência britânica GCHQ. Isso é feito através da adoção de reticulados não-ciclotômicos baseados em anéis polinomiais irredutíveis quase-circulantes. Em nossa implementação, o desempenho da encriptação é virtualmente idêntico, e a decriptação torna-se ligeiramente inferior, um pequeno preço a se pagar pelo aumento de segurança. A geração de chaves, porém, é muito mais lenta, devido à necessidade de se utilizar um método mais genérico e caro. A existência de métodos dedicados altamente eficientes para a geração de chaves nesta variante mais segura do LMSV permanece como um problema em aberto. / Lattices have been applied in many different ways in cryptography. Firstly used for the destruction of cryptosystems, they were later applied in the construction of new schemes, including asymmetric cryptosystems, blind signature schemes and the first methods for fully homomorphic encryption. Nonetheless, performance is still prohibitively slow in many cases. In this work, we expand techniques originally devised for homomorphic encryption, making them more general and applying them to the GGH-YK-M cryptosystem, a lattice-based public-key cryptosystem, and to the LMSV scheme, the only known homomorphic scheme that has not succumbed to INDCCA1 key recovery attacks to this date. In our tests, we reduce public key bandwidth occupation of GGH-YK-M by an order of complexity, specifically, from O(n2 lg n) down to O(n lg n) bits, where n is a public parameter of the scheme. The new technique also attains faster processing in all operations involved in an asymmetric cryptosystem, that is, key generation, encryption, and decryption. The most significant improvement in performance is in key generation, which becomes more than 3 orders of magnitude faster than previous results, while encryption becomes about 2 orders of magnitude faster. For decryption, our implementation is ten times faster than the literature. We also show that it is possible to improve security of LMSV against the quantum key recovery attacks recently published by British GCHQ.We do so by adopting non-cyclotomic lattices based on nearly-circulant irreducible polynomial rings. In our implementation, performance of encryption remains virtually the same, and decryption becomes slightly worse, a small price to pay for the improved security. Key generation, however, is much slower, due to the fact that it is necessary to use a more generic and expensive method. The existence of highly effcient dedicated methods for key generation of this secure variant of LMSV remains as an open problem.

Melhorando o ataque de reação contra o QC-MDPC McEliece / Improving the efficiency of the reaction attack on the QC-MDPC McEliece

Paiva, Thales Areco Bandiera 11 December 2017 (has links)
O QC-MDPC McEliece foi considerado um dos mais promissores esquemas criptográficos de chave pública que oferecem segurança contra ataques por computadores quânticos. O tamanho das chaves públicas do QC-MDPC McEliece é competitivo com o das chaves do RSA, e o esquema tem uma redução de segurança aparentemente forte. Por três anos, o esquema não sofreu ataques críticos, até que na Asiacrypt de 2016 Guo, Johansson, e Stankovski mostraram um ataque de reação contra o QC-MDPC McEliece que explora um aspecto não considerado em sua redução de segurança: a probabilidade de o algoritmo de decriptação falhar é menor quando a chave secreta e o vetor usado para encriptar a mensagem compartilham certas propriedades, chamadas de espectros. Dessa forma, um atacante pode, ao detectar falhas de decriptação, obter informação sobre o espectro, que será usada para reconstruir a chave secreta. Guo et al. apresentaram um algoritmo para a reconstrução da chave a partir do espectro recuperado, para o qual é possível apontar três problemas. O primeiro é que seu algoritmo não é eficiente quando o espectro da chave não foi recuperado quase completamente, o que resulta em o atacante ter que enviar um grande número de testes de decriptação à portadora da chave secreta. O segundo problema é que o desempenho de seu algoritmo não escala bem para níveis de segurança mais altos. O terceiro e último problema é que, por ser baseado numa busca em profundidade, seu algoritmo não pode ser paralelizado trivialmente. Para aumentar a eficiência do ataque, dois novos algoritmos de reconstrução são propostos neste trabalho. Estes algoritmos são mais eficientes, usam menos informação sobre a chave secreta, e podem ser paralelizados trivialmente. O primeiro algoritmo é probabilístico e tem complexidade assintótica ligeiramente melhor do que a do original. Entretanto, o desempenho do algoritmo probabilístico piora rapidamente, embora mais lentamente do que o algoritmo de Guo et al., conforme a quantidade de informação sobre o espectro diminui. O segundo algoritmo explora uma relação linear entre os blocos da chave secreta. Este é mais eficiente, tanto assintoticamente quanto na prática, que os dois outros algoritmos, e é eficiente mesmo com 50% menos informação sobre o espectro do que o necessário para o algoritmo original. Isso permite que o atacante encontre a chave secreta fazendo apenas em torno de 20% do número de testes necessários pelo algoritmo de Guo\'s et al., considerando-se o nível de segurança de 80 bits. O desempenho de ambos os algoritmos são analisados e comparados com o do algoritmo original, e as análises são feitas tanto para a complexidade teórica quanto para o desempenho na prática, considerando a implementação dos algoritmos em linguagem C. / The QC-MDPC McEliece scheme was considered one of the most promising public key encryption schemes for efficient post-quantum secure encryption. As a variant of the McEliece scheme, it is based on the syndrome decoding problem, an NP-hard problem from Coding Theory. The key sizes are competitive with the ones of the widely used RSA cryptosystem, and it came with an apparently strong security reduction. For three years, the scheme has not suffered major threats, until the end of 2016, when Guo, Johansson, and Stankovski presented at Asiacrypt a reaction attack on the QC-MDPC that exploits one aspect that was not considered in the security reduction: the probability of a decoding failure to occur is lower when the secret key and the error used for encryption share certain properties, which they called spectrums. By detecting decoding failures, the attacker can obtain information on the spectrum of the secret key and then use this information to reconstruct the key. Guo et al. presented an algorithm for key reconstruction for which we can point three weaknesses. The first one is that it cannot deal efficiently with partial information on the spectrum of the secret key, resulting in the attacker having to send a great number of decoding trials. The second one is that it does not scale well for higher security levels. The third one is that the algorithm, which is based on a depth-first search, cannot be trivially parallelized. To improve the efficiency of the attack, we propose two different key reconstruction algorithms that are more efficient, use less information on the secret key, and can be trivially parallelized. The first algorithm, which is a simple probabilistic extension of Guo\'s et al. algorithm, is more efficient and runs increasingly faster, for higher security levels, than the original one. However, for security levels higher than 80 bits, the probabilistic algorithm cannot run efficiently without too much information on the spectrum of the secret key, even though it needs less information than the original algorithm. The second algorithm is based on a linear relation between the blocks of the secret key. It can run efficiently with around 50% less information than needed by Guo\'s et al. key reconstruction algorithm. This makes it possible for an attacker to recover the secret key sending approximately 20% of the of the number of decoding trials needed by Guo\'s et al. algorithm, for the security level of 80 bits. The performance of each presented algorithm is analyzed and compared with that of the original one. The analysis are made theoretically, considering a probabilistic analysis of the algorithms, and in practice, considering the corresponding implementations in C language.

Réseaux idéaux et fonction multilinéaire GGH13 / On ideal lattices and the GGH13 multilinear map

Pellet--Mary, Alice 16 October 2019 (has links)
La cryptographie à base de réseaux euclidiens est un domaine prometteur pour la construction de primitives cryptographiques post-quantiques. Un problème fondamental, lié aux réseaux, est le problème du plus court vecteur (ou SVP, pour Shortest Vector Problem). Ce problème est supposé être difficile à résoudre même avec un ordinateur quantique. Afin d’améliorer l’efficacité des protocoles cryptographiques, on peut utiliser des réseaux structurés, comme par exemple des réseaux idéaux ou des réseaux modules (qui sont une généralisation des réseaux idéaux). La sécurité de la plupart des schémas utilisant des réseaux structurés dépend de la difficulté du problème SVP dans des réseaux modules, mais un petit nombre de schémas peuvent également être impactés par SVP dans des réseaux idéaux. La principale construction pouvant être impactée par SVP dans des réseaux idéaux est la fonction multilinéaire GGH13. Cette fonction multilinéaire est principalement utilisée aujourd’hui pour construire des obfuscateurs de programmes, c’est-à-dire des fonctions qui prennent en entrée le code d’un programme et renvoie le code d’un programme équivalent (calculant la même fonction), mais qui doit cacher la façon dont le programme fonctionne.Dans cette thèse, nous nous intéressons dans un premier temps au problème SVP dans les réseaux idéaux et modules. Nous présentons un premier algorithme qui, après un pre-calcul exponentiel, permet de trouver des vecteurs courts dans des réseaux idéaux plus rapidement que le meilleur algorithme connu pour des réseaux arbitraires. Nous présentons ensuite un algorithme pour les réseaux modules de rang 2, également plus efficace que le meilleur algorithme connu pour des réseaux arbitraires, à condition d’avoir accès à un oracle résolvant le problème du plus proche vecteur dans un réseau fixé. Le pré-calcul exponentiel et l’oracle pour le problème du plus proche vecteurs rendent ces deux algorithmes inutilisables en pratique.Dans un second temps, nous nous intéressons à la fonction GGH13 ainsi qu’aux obfuscateurs qui l’utilisent. Nous étudions d’abord l’impact des attaques statistiques sur la fonction GGH13 et ses variantes. Nous nous intéressons ensuite à la sécurité des obfuscateurs utilisant la fonction GGH13 et proposons une attaque quantique contre plusieurs de ces obfuscateurs. Cette attaque quantique utilise entre autres un algorithme calculant un vecteur court dans un réseau idéal dépendant d’un paramètre secret de la fonction GGH13. / Lattice-based cryptography is a promising area for constructing cryptographic primitives that are plausibly secure even in the presence of quantum computers. A fundamental problem related to lattices is the shortest vector problem (or SVP), which asks to find a shortest non-zero vector in a lattice. This problem is believed to be intractable, even quantumly. Structured lattices, for example ideal lattices or module lattices (the latter being a generalization of the former), are often used to improve the efficiency of lattice-based primitives. The security of most of the schemes based on structured lattices is related to SVP in module lattices, and a very small number of schemes can also be impacted by SVP in ideal lattices.In this thesis, we first focus on the problem of finding short vectors in ideal and module lattices.We propose an algorithm which, after some exponential pre-computation, performs better on ideal lattices than the best known algorithm for arbitrary lattices. We also present an algorithm to find short vectors in rank 2 modules, provided that we have access to some oracle solving the closest vector problem in a fixed lattice. The exponential pre-processing time and the oracle call make these two algorithms unusable in practice.The main scheme whose security might be impacted by SVP in ideal lattices is the GGH13multilinear map. This protocol is mainly used today to construct program obfuscators, which should render the code of a program unintelligible, while preserving its functionality. In a second part of this thesis, we focus on the GGH13 map and its application to obfuscation. We first study the impact of statistical attacks on the GGH13 map and on its variants. We then study the security of obfuscators based on the GGH13 map and propose a quantum attack against multiple such obfuscators. This quantum attack uses as a subroutine an algorithm to find a short vector in an ideal lattice related to a secret element of the GGH13 map.
