Chapter 8, Problem P12P

Explanation of Solution

  • The following figure describes about the message authentication done between two different persons using encryption method.
  • The message m is concatenated with S1 creating a hash code H(m, h) and the code is encrypted with S2 forming KS2(m, h).
  • The encrypted code is sent to the receiver through internet...

Exercise 1 (The RSA basics ( Alice forms a public key for the "textbook" RSA public-key encryption and signature schemes, choosing N = 1073 and e = 715. 1. Encrypt the message M = 3 for Alice. 2. What is Alice's private key, and how does she use it for decrypting the received ciphertext? 3. Generate a signature on the message M = 1234567 using the following simple hash function H: {0, 1} ZN such that H(M)= 3M + 5 (mod N). 4. Verify that the signature you generated in the previous step is a valid signature.
Assume there is a Certificate Authority (CA) with a well-known public key. Further assume every user is issued a certificate for his/her public key. For convenience, we use PKu and SKu to represent user’s public key and private key, respectively. Draw diagrams to answer the following questions. a) Suppose Alice wants to send a large secret message M to Bob. Describe how Alice should send M in an authenticated way. b) Assume Bob receives the message sent by Alice. Describe how Bob should process the message. c) Suppose Alice needs to send a number of large secret messages to Bob. Alice would like to avoid signing digital signatures for all these messages. Develop a protocol for Alice and Bob so that all the messages can be sent in a confidential and authenticated way. Briefly describe the intuition of your protocol first and then draw a diagram.
. Q: There is no authentication in the Diffie-Hellman key-exchange protocol. By exploiting this property, a malicious third party, Chuck, can easily break into the key exchange taking place between Alice and Bob, and subsequently ruin the security. Explain how this would work.
