Towards Efficient LPN-Based Symmetric Encryption

Serge Vaudenay, Thomas Locher, Sonia Mihaela Bogos, Dario Korolija

Due to the rapidly growing number of devices that need to communicate securely, there is still significant interest in the development of efficient encryption schemes. It is important to maintain a portfolio of different constructions in order to enable a ...

LPN in Cryptography : an Algorithmic Study

Sonia Mihaela Bogos

The security of public-key cryptography relies on well-studied hard problems, problems for which we do not have efficient algorithms. Factorization and discrete logarithm are the two most known and used hard problems. Unfortunately, they can be easily solv ...

Cryptanalysis of a Homomorphic Encryption Scheme

Serge Vaudenay, Sonia Mihaela Bogos, John Gaspoz

Homomorphic encryption allows to make specific operations on private data which stays encrypted. While applications such as cloud computing require to have a practical solution, the encryption scheme must be secure. In this article, we detail and analyze i ...

Optimization of LPN Solving Algorithms

Serge Vaudenay, Sonia Mihaela Bogos

In this article we focus on constructing an algorithm that automatizes the generation of LPN solving algorithms from the considered parameters. When searching for an algorithm to solve an LPN instance, we make use of the existing techniques and optimize th ...

On solving LPN using BKW and variants Implementation and Analysis

Serge Vaudenay, Florian Tramèr, Sonia Mihaela Bogos

The Learning Parity with Noise problem (LPN) is appealing in cryptography as it is considered to remain hard in the post-quantum world. It is also a good candidate for lightweight devices due to its simplicity. In this paper we provide a comprehensive anal ...

How to Sequentialize Independent Parallel Attacks? - Biased Distributions Have a Phase Transition

Serge Vaudenay, Sonia Mihaela Bogos

We assume a scenario where an attacker can mount several independent attacks on a single CPU. Each attack can be run several times in independent ways. Each attack can succeed after a given number of steps with some given and known probability. A natural q ...

Primeless Factoring-Based Cryptography

Serge Vaudenay, Sonia Mihaela Bogos, Ioana Cristina Carlson

Factoring-based public-key cryptosystems have an overall complexity which is dominated by the key-production algorithm, which requires the generation of prime numbers. This is most inconvenient in settings where the key-generation is not an one-off process ...

Primeless Modular Cryptography (Extended Abstract)

Serge Vaudenay, Sonia Mihaela Bogos, Ioana Cristina Carlson

Most of the known public-key cryptosystems have an overall complexity which is dominated by the key-production algorithm, which requires the generation of prime numbers. This is most inconvenient in settings where the key-generation is not an one-off proce ...
