Unconditionally Secure Oblivious Polynomial Evaluation: A Survey and New Results

Oblivious polynomial evaluation (OPE) is a two-party protocol that allows a receiver, R to learn an evaluation f(α), of a sender, S's polynomial f(x), whilst keeping both α and f(x) private. This protocol has attracted a lot of attention recently, as it has wide ranging applications in the field of cryptography. In this article we review some of these applications and, additionally, take an in-depth look at the special case of information theoretic OPE. Specifically, we provide a current and critical review of the existing information theoretic OPE protocols in the literature. We divide these protocols into two distinct cases (three-party and distributed OPE) allowing for the easy distinction and classification of future information theoretic OPE protocols. In addition to this work, we also develop several modifications and extensions to existing schemes, resulting in increased security, flexibility and efficiency. Lastly, we also identify a security flaw in a previously published OPE scheme.

Controlled Secure Direct Communication Protocol via the Three-Qubit Partially Entangled Set of States

In this paper, we first re-examine the previous protocol of controlled quantum secure direct communication of Zhang et al.’s scheme, which was found insecure under two kinds of attacks, fake entangled particles attack and disentanglement attack. Then, by changing the party of the preparation of cluster states and using unitary operations, we present an improved protocol which can avoid these two kinds of attacks. Moreover, the protocol is proposed using the three-qubit partially entangled set of states. It is more efficient by only using three particles rather than four or even more to transmit one bit secret information. Given our using state is much easier to prepare for multiqubit states and our protocol needs less measurement resource, it makes this protocol more convenient from an applied point of view.

面向长距离量子通信的双光子关联成像技术

量子时域鬼成像利用光子对的时间-频率关联性实现了50km光纤链路上的图像传送,有望应用于量子通信的协议中。然而,现有方案的成像质量较差,成像速度较慢,因此其应用性在一定程度上受到了限制。文章对已有成像方案进行了较大的改进,利用可编程滤波器数字设定待成像信息,进而实现了二维图像信息的自动化实时传送。实验结果证明,改进方案的成像质量和速度均有显著改善,有利于推动量子关联成像在量子通信领域的应用。     

Multi-key FHE without ciphertext-expansion in two-server model

López-Alt et al.(STOC12)put forward a primitive called multi-key fully homomorphic encryption(MKFHE),in which each involved party encrypts their own data using keys that are independently and randomly chosen whereby arbitrary computations can be performed on these encrypted data by a final collector.Subsequently,several superior schemes based on the standard assumption(LWE)were proposed.Most of these schemes were constructed by expanding a fresh GSW-ciphertext or BGV-ciphertext under a single key to a new same-type ciphertext of the same message under a combination of associated parties’keys.Therefore,the new ciphertext’s size grew more or less linearly with an increase in the number of parties.In this paper,we proposed a novel and simple scheme of MKFHE based on LWE without increasing the size of the ciphertext in the two non-collusion server model.In other words,each party first independently shares their own data between two servers and each server only needs a one-round communication with another to construct a ciphertext of the same plaintext under a sum of associated parties’keys.Our new ciphertext under multiple keys has the same size as that of the original one with only one-round communication between two servers.The communication complexity is O(kmlogq)-bit,where k is the number of input ciphertexts involved,m is the size of a GSW-ciphertext and q is a modulus.In conclusion,we proved that our scheme is CPA-secure against semi-honest adversaries.

Design and ARM‐embedded implementation of a chaotic map‐based multicast scheme for multiuser speech wireless communication

This paper proposes a chaotic map‐based multicast scheme for multiuser speech wireless communication and implements it in an ARM platform. The scheme compresses the digital audio signal decoded by a sound card and then encrypts it with a three‐level chaotic encryption scheme. First, the position of every bit of the compressed data is permuted randomly with a pseudo‐random number sequence (PRNS) generated by a 6‐D chaotic map. Then, the obtained data are further permuted in the level of byte with a PRNS generated by a 7‐D chaotic map. Finally, it is operated with a multiround chaotic stream cipher. The whole system owns the following merits: the redundancy in the original audio file is reduced effectively and the corresponding unicity distance is increased; the balancing point between a high security level of the system and real‐time conduction speed is achieved well. In the ARM implementation, the framework of communication of multicast–multiuser in a subnet and the Internet Group Manage Protocol is adopted to obtain the function of communication between one client and other ones. Comprehensive test results were provided to show the feasibility and security performance of the whole system. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

A data privacy protective mechanism for wireless body area networks

As an important branch of wireless sensor networks, wireless body area networks (WBAN) has attracted widespread attention in various fields because of its portability and mobility. However, because much of the data collected by WBAN are related to personal information of the user, the sensitive private data may be at risk of leakage or malicious modification in the actual process of application and deployment. In order to assure the security and privacy of user's data in the environment of WBAN, this paper presents a Data Privacy Protective Mechanism for WBAN. In order to secure data and secure transmission, this mechanism combines symmetric key with an asymmetric key to transmit user's data. Then, it cuts and reorganizes the data in the process of transmission to better capture defense and the attacks of the nodes. Ultimately transmits the user's data securely under the condition that the data collected by the nodes are confidential and secure. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
