Abstract Cryptography is related and referred to as the secured transmission of messages amongst the sender and the intended receiver by ensuring confidentiality, integrity, and authentication. Diffie – Hellman (DH) key exchange protocol is a well-known algorithm that would generate a shared secret key among the sender and the intended receiver, and the basis of cryptosystems for using public and private key for encryption and decryption process. But it is severely affected by the Man in the Middle (MITM) attack that would intercept and manipulate thus eavesdropping the shared secret key. This paper proposes a model of integrating the public-key RSA cryptography system with the DH key exchange to prevent the MITM attack. The performance of the proposed work has been compared to the DH Key Exchange algorithm as well as RSA Cryptosystem to conclude for effectiveness of the proposed model.

This paper illustrates three different algorithms to provide shared secret key for security of the system. The proposed three algorithms namely 1) Modified Simple Password Key Exchange Scheme 2) Modified Diffie-Hellman Key exchange Scheme 3) Modified Elliptic Curve Scheme are meant to provide shared secret key for authentication process. Enhancements in terms of memory requirement, storage and other security properties such as authentication among mutual users, fraud prevention, attack etc., prove the validity of the proposed algorithms in proving authentication for the cryptographic identification of networks

The first published solution to key distribution problem is due to Diffie–Hellman, which allows two parties that have never communicated earlier, to jointly establish a shared secret key over an insecure channel. In this paper, we propose a new key exchange protocol in a non-commutative semigroup over group ring whose security relies on the hardness of Factorization with Discrete Logarithm Problem (FDLP). We have also provided its security and complexity analysis. We then propose a ElGamal cryptosystem based on FDLP using the group of invertible matrices over group rings.

This paper introduces a novel entanglement-based QKD protocol, that makes use of a modified symmetric version of the Bernstein-Vazirani algorithm, in order to achieve secure and efficient key distribution. Two variants of the protocol, one fully symmetric and one semi-symmetric, are presented. In both cases, the spatially separated Alice and Bob share multiple EPR pairs, each one qubit of the pair. The fully symmetric version allows both parties to input their tentative secret key from their respective location and acquire in the end a totally new and original key, an idea which was inspired by the Diffie-Hellman key exchange protocol. In the semi-symmetric version, Alice sends her chosen secret key to Bob (or vice versa). The performance of both protocols against an eavesdroppers attack is analyzed. Finally, in order to illustrate the operation of the protocols in practice, two small scale but detailed examples are given.

Abstract In this paper, a new key-agreement scheme is proposed and analyzed. In addition to being provably secure in the shared secret key indistinguishability model under Decisional Diffie-Hellman assumption for subgroup of matrices over GF(2) with prime order, which considered as basic security requirement, the scheme has an interesting feature; it uses exponentiations over cyclic group using hidden secret subgroup generator as a platform for the key exchange, whereby - unlike many other exponentiation based key exchange schemes - it transcends the reliance on intractability of Discrete Logarithm Problem in its security.

Security has become critical for in-vehicle networks as they carry safety-critical data from various components, e.g., sensors or actuators, and current research proposals were quick to react with cryptographic protocols designed for in-vehicle buses, e.g., CAN (Controller Area Network). Obviously, the majority of existing proposals are built on cryptographic primitives that rely on a secret shared key. However, how to share such a secret key is less obvious due to numerous practical constraints. In this work, we explore in a comparative manner several approaches based on a group extension of the Diffie–Hellman key-exchange protocol and identity-based authenticated key agreements. We discuss approaches based on conventional signatures and identity-based signatures, garnering advantages from bilinear pairings that open road to several well-known cryptographic constructions: short signatures, the tripartite Diffie–Hellman key exchange and identity-based signatures or key exchanges. Pairing-based cryptographic primitives do not come computationally cheap, but they offer more flexibility that leads to constructive advantages. To further improve on performance, we also account for pairing-free identity-based key exchange protocols that do not require expensive pairing operations nor explicit signing of the key material. We present both computational results on automotive-grade controllers as well as bandwidth simulations with industry-standard tools, i.e., CANoe, on modern in-vehicle buses CAN-FD and FlexRay.
