Surreptitiously Weakening Cryptographic Systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
Revelations over the past couple of years highlight the importance of understanding malicious and surreptitious weakening of cryptographic systems. We provide an overview of this domain, using a number of historical examples to drive development of a weaknesses taxonomy. This allows comparing different approaches to sabotage. We categorize a broader set of potential avenues for weakening systems using this taxonomy, and discuss what future research is needed to provide sabotage-resilient cryptography.

متن کاملDevelopment of a Unique Biometric-based Cryptographic Key Generation with Repeatability using Brain Signals
Network security is very important when sending confidential data through the network. Cryptography is the science of hiding information, and a combination of cryptography solutions with cognitive science starts a new branch called cognitive cryptography that guarantee the confidentiality and integrity of the data. Brain signals as a biometric indicator can convert to a binary code which can be...
متن کاملOverview of Wireless Sensor Networks - Detection of Cloned Node Using RM, LSN, SET, Bloom Filter and AICN Protocol and Comparing Their Performances
Sensor nodes deployed in hostile environments are vulnerable to capture and compromise. Due to the inexpensive hardware components, an attacker can easily obtain cryptographic information from these sensors, clone them and surreptitiously insert these clones back in the network. Cloning provides the adversary an easy way to build an army of malicious nodes that can cripple the sensor network. T...
متن کاملDifferential Power Analysis: A Serious Threat to FPGA Security
Differential Power Analysis (DPA) implies measuring the supply current of a cipher-circuit in an attempt to uncover part of a cipher key. Cryptographic security gets compromised if the current waveforms obtained correlate with those from a hypothetical power model of the circuit. As FPGAs are becoming integral parts of embedded systems and increasingly popular for cryptographic applications and...
متن کاملInverting Thanks to Sat Solving
The SATisfiability Problem is a core problem in mathematical logic and computing theory. The last decade progresses have led it to be a great and competitive approach to practically solve a wide range of industrial and academic problems. Thus, the current SAT solving capacity allows the propositional formalism to be an interesting alternative to tackle cryptanalysis problems. This paper deals w...
