Pseudorandom Functions Revisited: The Cascade.. - Bellare, Canetti.. (1996)   (31 citations)  (Correct)

....ingredients, explicit security parameters and carefully quantified security reductions, form the basis for what we call concrete security analysis. In the case of pseudorandom functions this study was initiated in [4, 3] Security preserving reductions are the subject of other works as well, e.g. [9, 11]. Following [4] we say that a function family G is (t; q; l; ffl) secure if a program that runs in time t (more precisely, the running time plus size of the description of the program, in some fixed RAM model of computation, must be bounded by t) given an oracle for a function E and allowed to ....

We note that ( 1 log k ) log k is only slightly below what is needed to be negligible. To obtain a security preserving[13] amplification we could use k k bit moduli. Another approach would be to remove the need for amplification by finding an invertible way to produce integers with two large primefactors and use just one such modulus for encryption. 6.2 Doing without Oblivious Index Generation We now proceed to ....

Although such an example would not necessarily be practically secure, since NP complete problems can be almost always easy, there is some evidence[9] that NP security, once obtained, can be amplified to the required cryptographic security. 1.3 Gabidulin codes and the Gabidulin PKC Definition1.

....) 1 , G 2 (1 ) G(1 ) and extend f fi into g fi so that g fi (x) f fi (x) if x 2 D fi and g fi (x) x otherwise. This yields a collection of common domain permutations, fg fi : f0; 1g jfij 1 1 7 f0; 1g g, which are weakly one way. Employing amplification techniques (e.g. [Y, GILVZ]) we obtain a proper common domain system. In the sequel we refer to common domain trapdoor systems in a less formal way. We say that two oneway permutations, f a and f b , are a pair if they are both permutations over the same domain (i.e. a = ff; fi 1 ) and b = ff; fi 2 ) where the domain ....

....of N is not known. Let f N (x) x e (mod N) if x N and f N (x) x otherwise. With non negligible probability N is a product of two large primes. Thus, this construction yields a collection of common domain permutations which are weakly one way. Employing an amplification procedure (e.g. [Y, GILVZ]) we obtain a proper common domain system. This common domain trapdoor system can be used as described in Section 4.2. However, here the keygeneration stage can be simplified considerably. Observe that it is possible to choose a permutation from the above distribution without knowing its ....

....need to set the security parameter in the first case to the square of the one in the second case for the same level of security, so that the first algorithm effectively becomes O(k 6 ) where k is the security paramter. The efficiency of security reductions has been treated by Goldreich et al. [GILVZ] in the context of one way permutations. More recently, there has been much interest in this subject in the context of pseudorandom functions [BCK, BGK] The reason is that pseudorandom functions, introduced by [GGM] are a useful tool in cryptographic protocol design for both theoretical and ....

Its existence is equivalent to the existence of weak one way function using Yao s amplification technique [37] or the more security preserving method of [15] which is applicable only to permutations or regular functions. A weak one way function has the same definition as above, but the hardness of inversion is smaller, i.e. its probability is inverse polynomially away from 1.

....all numbers smaller than P where 2 n Gamma1 P 2 n , as is the case in the number theoretic constructions. Then we can construct from it a weak one way permutation f : f0; 1g n 7 f0; 1g n by taking f(x) f 0 (x) if x 2 S and f(x) x otherwise. Using the amplification techniques of [37, 15] we can then obtain a strong one way permutation on a domain f0; 1g n 0 for n 0 linear in n. The goal of this paper is to present a construction of perfectly secure computationally binding commitment from any one way permutation. 2.3 Perfect Zero Knowledge Arguments We now briefly discuss ....

....permutations. For practical purposes consider the data encryption standard (DES) Kon] Given a k regular [GKL] one way function (i.e. the number of pre images of a point is k and is k on a significant fraction) one can transform it into a one way function which is 1 1 almost everywhere [GILVZ]. We apply this to the function DES(k;m) y (k = key, m= message) where (actual used parameters are) k 2 f0; 1g 56 , m; y 2 f0; 1g 64 . Assuming that DES is not breakable on line (say in 10 seconds) then it is a good candidate for our scheme. We explore this further in the full version of ....
