In this paper, we design a new lattice-based linearly homomorphic signature scheme over F 2 . The existing schemes are all constructed based on hash-and-sign lattice-based signature framework, where the implementation of preimage sampling function is Gaussian sampling, and the use of trapdoor basis needs a larger dimension m ≥ 5 n   log   q . Hence, they cannot resist potential side-channel attacks and have larger sizes of public key and signature. Under Fiat–Shamir with aborting signature framework and general SIS problem restricted condition m ≥ n   log   q , we use uniform sampling of filtering technology to design the scheme, and then, our scheme has a smaller public key size and signature size than the existing schemes and it can resist side-channel attacks.

Quantum Digital Signature

For the construction of post-quantum digital signature schemes that satisfy the strengthened criterion of resistance to quantum attacks, an algebraic carrier is proposed that allows one to define a hidden commutative group with two-dimensional cyclicity. Formulas are obtained that describe the set of elements that are permutable with a given fixed element. A post-quantum signature scheme based on the considered finite non-commutative associative algebra is described.

Side-channel attacks remain a challenge to information flow control and security in mobile edge devices till this date. One such important security flaw could be exploited through temperature side-channel attacks, where heat dissipation and propagation from the processing cores are observed over time in order to deduce security flaws. In this paper, we study how computer vision-based convolutional neural networks (CNNs) could be used to exploit temperature (thermal) side-channel attack on different Linux governors in mobile edge device utilizing multi-processor system-on-chip (MPSoC). We also designed a power- and memory-efficient CNN model that is capable of performing thermal side-channel attack on the MPSoC and can be used by industry practitioners and academics as a benchmark to design methodologies to secure against such an attack in MPSoC.

Substantial Progress

Many Internet of Things applications in smart cities use elliptic-curve cryptosystems due to their efficiency compared to other well-known public-key cryptosystems such as RSA. One of the important components of an elliptic-curve-based cryptosystem is the elliptic-curve point multiplication which has been shown to be vulnerable to various types of side-channel attacks. Recently, substantial progress has been made in applying deep learning to side-channel attacks. Conceptually, the idea is to monitor a core while it is running encryption for information leakage of a certain kind, for example, power consumption. The knowledge of the underlying encryption algorithm can be used to train a model to recognise the key used for encryption. The model is then applied to traces gathered from the crypto core in order to recover the encryption key. In this article, we propose an RNS GLV elliptic curve cryptography core which is immune to machine learning and deep learning based side-channel attacks. The experimental analysis confirms the proposed crypto core does not leak any information about the private key and therefore it is suitable for hardware implementations.
