Auditable PAKEs: Approaching Fair Exchange Without a TTP (Transcript of Discussion)
نویسنده
چکیده
Roscoe recently showed how HISPs, a class of protocol to allow humans to contribute to the creation of secure authentic channels between them, can be made auditable in the sense that a failed attack on them cannot be disguised as communication failure. In this paper we study the same issue for PAKEs: password authenticated key exchanges. We find that because this second style of protocol relies on long term state, it is harder to make them auditable, and that to do so we have to develop new ideas on how to approximate fair exchange without a TTP.

Fair exchange between mutually distrusted parties has been recognized as an important issue in electronic commerce. Ž . Ž . However, the correctness fairness of the existing fair exchange protocols that use a Trusted Third Party TTP is based on the assumption that during an exchange there are no failures at any of the local systems involved in the exchange, which is Ž .

متن کاملPractical Implementations of a Non-disclosure Fair Contract Signing Protocol
Contract signing is a practical application of the fair exchange of digital signatures. This application used to be realized by directly adopting the results of the fair exchange of signatures, which do not completely meet the requirements of the signing of a secret contract. The assistance of a trusted third party (TTP) and some cryptographic technology are required to allow two parties to exc...
متن کاملOptimally Efficient Multi-Party Fair Exchange and Fair Secure Multi-Party Computation
Multi-party fair exchange (MFE) and fair secure multi-party computation (fair SMPC) are under-studied fields of research, with practical importance. We examine MFE scenarios where every participant has some item, and at the end of the protocol, either every participant receives every other participant’s item, or no participant receives anything. This is a particularly hard scenario, even though...
متن کاملA Survey on Optimistic Fair Digital Signature Exchange Protocols
Security services become crucial to many applications such as e-commerce payment protocols, electronic contract signing, and certified e-mail delivery, with the phenomenal growth of the Internet and open networks. For these applications fair exchange must be assured. A fair protocol allows two parties to exchange digital signatures over the Internet in a fair way, so that either each party gets...
متن کاملA Thesis for the Degree of Master A Study on Fair Electronic Cash System with and without TTP
The research on off-line electronic cash(e-cash) schemes has drawn much attention since Chaum etc [8] presented the first off-line anonymous electronic cash scheme in 1988. However, anonymous electronic cash schemes also facilitate fraud and criminal activities [32], such as money laundering, blackmailing and illegal purchases. Frankel etc [13]. first introduces the concept of fair electronic c...
