A modification of Shanks' baby-step giant-step algorithm
I describe a modification to Shanks’ baby-step giant-step algorithm for computing the order n of an element g of a group G, assuming n is finite. My method has the advantage of being able to compute n quickly, which Shanks’ method fails to do when the order of G is infinite, unknown, or much larger than n. I describe the algorithm in detail. I also present the results of implementations of my a...
متن کاملA Probabilistic Baby-step Giant-step Algorithm
In this paper, a new algorithm to solve the discrete logarithm problem is presented which is similar to the usual baby-step giant-step algorithm. Our algorithm exploits the order of the discrete logarithm in the multiplicative group of a finite field. Using randomization with parallelized collision search, our algorithm indicates some weakness in NIST curves over prime fields which are consider...
متن کاملExtending Baby-step Giant-step algorithm for FACTOR problem
Recently, a non-abelian factorization problem together with an associated asymmetric encryption scheme were introduced in [1]. We show how a classical baby-step giant-step algorithm for discrete logarithm can be extended to this problem. This contradicts the claims regarding the complexity of the proposed problem.
متن کاملA New Human Identification Protocol and Coppersmith's Baby-Step Giant-Step Algorithm
We propose a new protocol providing cryptographically secure authentication to unaided humans against passive adversaries. We also propose a new generic passive attack on human identification protocols. The attack is an application of Coppersmith’s baby-step giantstep algorithm on human identification protcols. Under this attack, the achievable security of some of the best candidates for human ...
متن کاملA New Baby-Step Giant-Step Algorithm and Some Applications to Cryptanalysis
We describe a new variant of the well known Baby-Step Giant-Step algorithm in the case of some discrete logarithms with a special structure. More precisely, we focus on discrete logarithms equal to products in groups of unknown order. As an example of application, we show that this new algorithm enables to cryptanalyse a variant of the GPS scheme proposed by Girault and Lefranc at CHES 2004 con...
