The encryption scheme NTRU is designed over a quotient ring of a polynomial ring. Basically, if the ring is changed to any other ring, NTRU-like cryptosystem is constructible. In this paper, we propose a variant of NTRU using group ring, which is called GRNTRU. GR-NTRU includes NTRU as a special case. Moreover, we analyze and compare the security of GR-NTRU for several concrete groups. It is ea...

The NTRU encryption scheme is an interesting alternative to well-established encryption schemes such as RSA, ElGamal, and ECIES. The security of NTRU relies on the hardness of computing short lattice vectors and thus is a promising candidate for being quantum computer resistant. There has been extensive research on efficient implementation of the NTRU encryption scheme. In this paper, we presen...

Several ideal-lattice-based cryptosystems have been broken by recent attacks that exploit special structures of the rings used in those cryptosystems. The same structures are also used in the leading proposals for post-quantum lattice-based cryptography, including the classic NTRU cryptosystem and typical Ring-LWE-based cryptosystems. This paper proposes NTRU Prime, which tweaks NTRU to use rin...

In this note we report on experiments with the lattices underlying the NTRU Public Key Cryptosystem. We present data for the time needed to nd a small vector and use this data to extrapolate expected breaking times for the NTRU PKCS for various parameter values. In particular, we nd that NTRU 167, NTRU 263, and NTRU 503 are at least as secure as RSA 512, RSA 1024, and RSA 2048 respectively. In ...

We describe NTRU, a new public key cryptosystem. NTRU features reasonably short, easily created keys, high speed, and low memory requirements. NTRU encryption and decryption use a mixing system suggested by polynomial algebra combined with a clustering principle based on elementary probability theory. The security of the NTRU cryptosystem comes from the interaction of the polynomial mixing syst...

Recently in two independent papers, Albrecht, Bai and Ducas and Cheon, Jeong and Lee presented two very similar attacks, that allow to break NTRU with larger parameters and GGH Multinear Map without zero encodings. They proposed an algorithm for recovering the NTRU secret key given the public key which apply for large NTRU modulus, in particular to Fully Homomorphic Encryption schemes based on ...

NTRU is an efficient patented public-key cryptosystem proposed in 1996 by Hoffstein, Pipher and Silverman. Although no devastating weakness of NTRU has been found, Jaulmes and Joux presented at Crypto ’00 a simple chosen-ciphertext attack against NTRU as originally described. This led Hoffstein and Silverman to propose three encryption padding schemes more or less based on previous work by Fuji...

The overstretched NTRU problem, which is the NTRU problem with super-polynomial size q in n, is one of the most important candidates for higher level cryptography. Unfortunately, Albrecht et al. in Crypto 2016 and Cheon et al. in ANTS 2016 proposed so-called subfield attacks which demonstrate that the overstretched NTRU problems with power-of-two cyclotomic modulus are not secure enough with gi...

A new authentication and digital signature scheme called the NTRU Signature Scheme (NSS) is introduced. NSS provides an authentication/signature method complementary to the NTRU public key cryptosystem. The hard lattice problem underlying NSS is similar to the hard problem underlying NTRU, and NSS similarly features high speed, low footprint, and easy key creation.

NTRU is a fast public key cryptosystem presented in 1996 by Hoffstein, Pipher and Silverman. It operates in the ring of truncated polynomials. In NTRU, a public key is a polynomial defined by the combination of two private polynomials. In this paper, we consider NTRU with two different public keys defined by different private keys. We present a lattice-based attack to recover the private keys a...
