Disclosed are a calculation device for encryption using a public key and an encryption method thereof. The present method comprises: a step for setting a secret key, and generating a public key using the secret key and an error extracted from a discrete Gaussian distribution or a distribution that is within a short statistical distance thereto; and a step for applying the public key to a message, and then performing a rounding process to encrypt the message. Accordingly, encryption efficiency can be enhanced.

An elliptic curve random number generator avoids escrow keys by choosing a point on the elliptic curve as verifiably random. An arbitrary string is chosen and a hash of that string computed. The hash is then converted to a field element of the desired field, the field element regarded as the x-coordinate of a point on the elliptic curve and the x-coordinate is tested for validity on the desired elliptic curve. If valid, the x-coordinate is decompressed to the point , wherein the choice of which is the two points is also derived from the hash value. Intentional use of escrow keys can provide for back up functionality. The relationship between P and is used as an escrow key and stored by for a security domain. The administrator logs the output of the generator to reconstruct the random number with the escrow key.

This disclosure relates to method and system for providing a light weight secure communication for computing devices. In one example, the method includes generating a new encryption key based on a selected encryption key from among a plurality of encrypted keys and a current synchronized hash based on a set of pre-defined rules, generating an updated synchronized hash based on a message to be transmitted and the current synchronized hash using a pre-defined hash algorithm, encrypting the message to be transmitted using the new encryption key to generate an encrypted message, transmitting the encrypted message, and replacing the current synchronized hash with the updated synchronized hash. The set of pre-defined rules and the pre-defined hash algorithm are retrieved from a pre-installed library. Further, the current synchronized hash, the plurality of encryption keys, and the pre-installed library are synchronized between the first computing device and the second computing device.

An encryption device divides a message M into blocks of b bits, so as to generate data M[1], . . . , data M[m]. The encryption device sets data S.sub.0 of n=b+c bits to a variable S, updates the variable S by calculating a block cipher E using as input the variable S, then updates the variable S by calculating an exclusive OR using as input the variable S that has been updated and data X[i] that is data M[i] to which a bit string of c bits is added, and generates data C[i] by extracting b bits from the variable S that has been updated, for each integer i=1, . . . , m in ascending order. The encryption device generates a ciphertext C of the message M by concatenating the respective pieces of the data C[i] for each integer i=1, . . . , m. The encryption device extracts t bits from the variable S as an authenticator T, where t is an integer of 1 or greater.

A virtual enigma cipher system is described herein that allows for symmetric encryption and decryption of data. During encryption, a plurality of wheels representing sequences of data are used to encrypt a message. The plurality of wheels includes at least one dynamic wheel, which is generated based on a password, and a plurality of static wheels. During encryption, the unencrypted message is iterated from beginning to end. During each step of iteration, the encrypted payload value for a particular position is determined by performing an exclusive or (XOR) operation between the value of the unencrypted message at the position, and the values of the wheels at their respective wheel pointer positions. The particular position is then incremented, as are the wheel pointer positions, and iteration continues until the entire unencrypted message has been encrypted as part of the encrypted payload. Padding data and the message length are appended to the encrypted payload. During decryption, the steps are reversed.

Described herein are various methods of generating and using a digital signature, such as a polymorphic digital signature. One or more methods of creating a digital signature permit strings of characters, which may be simple or complex, to uniquely identify large numbers of people, things, and actions. Different people, things, and actions can use the same set of characters to identify themselves and yet still be uniquely identified.

An encryption method includes: calculating a second random matrix using a first random matrix and a secret key, and generating a ciphertext corresponding to a message using the second random matrix. The generating of the ciphertext includes: performing a rounding process for sending the generated ciphertext to a smaller modulus area. The generating of the ciphertext includes performing message encryption without Gaussian sampling.

In some examples, a system for executing instructions can include a processor to detect data to be transmitted to a storage device in response to a write operation. The processor can also determine that the data comprises a compressible characteristic that enables compression of the data to a size below a threshold value. Additionally, the processor can generate a modified data block by encrypting the compressed data, and adding a padding to the compressed and encrypted data. Furthermore, the processor can transmit the modified data block to the storage device.

An elliptic curve random number generator avoids escrow keys by choosing a point Q on the elliptic curve as verifiably random. An arbitrary string is chosen and a hash of that string computed. The hash is then converted to a field element of the desired field, the field element regarded as the x-coordinate of a point Q on the elliptic curve and the x-coordinate is tested for validity on the desired elliptic curve. If valid, the x-coordinate is decompressed to the point Q, wherein the choice of which is the two points is also derived from the hash value. Intentional use of escrow keys can provide for back up functionality. The relationship between P and Q is used as an escrow key and stored by for a security domain. The administrator logs the output of the generator to reconstruct the random number with the escrow key.
