A New Public-Key Cryptosystem via Mersenne Numbers
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this work, we propose a new public-key cryptosystem whose security is based on the computational intractability of the following problem: Given a Mersenne number p = 2 − 1, where n is a prime, a positive integer h , and two n -bit integers T,R , find two n -bit integers F,G each of Hamming weight at most h such that T = F ·R+G modulo p , under the promise that they exist.

EEH: AGGH-like public key cryptosystem over the eisenstein integers using polynomial representations
GGH class of public-key cryptosystems relies on computational problems based on the closest vector problem (CVP) in lattices for their security. The subject of lattice based cryptography is very active and there have recently been new ideas that revolutionized the field. We present EEH, a GGH-Like public key cryptosystem based on the Eisenstein integers Z [ζ3] where ζ3 is a primitive...
متن کاملOn the Hardness of the Mersenne Low Hamming Ratio Assumption
In a recent paper [1], Aggarwal, Joux, Prakash, and Santha (AJPS) describe an ingenious public-key cryptosystem mimicking NTRU over the integers. This algorithm relies on the properties of Mersenne primes instead of polynomial rings. The security of the AJPS cryptosystem relies on the conjectured hardness of the Mersenne Low Hamming Ratio Assumption, defined in [1]. This work shows that AJPS’ s...
متن کاملQTRU: quaternionic version of the NTRU public-key cryptosystems
In this paper we will construct a lattice-based public-key cryptosystem using non-commutative quaternion algebra, and since its lattice does not fully fit within Circular and Convolutional Modular Lattice (CCML), we prove it is arguably more secure than the existing lattice-based cryptosystems such as NTRU. As in NTRU, the proposed public-key cryptosystem relies for its inherent securi...
متن کاملImproving 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...
متن کاملA String-Based Public Key Cryptosystem
Traditional methods in public key cryptography are based on number theory, and suffer from problems such as dealing with very large numbers, making key creation cumbersome. Here, we propose a new public key cryptosystem based on strings only, which avoids the difficulties of the traditional number theory approach. The security mechanism for public and secret keys generation is ensured by a recu...
