Compact software/hardware co-design and implementation method of Aigis-sig digital signature scheme by Zhen ZHOU, Debiao HE, Min LUO, Li LI

“…Digital signature scheme Aigis-sig, constructed on ideal lattice, takes the advantages of high efficiency, short signature length and resistant to quantum attack, etc.An optimized modular multiplication arithmetic component was constructed and a compact hardware architecture for polynomial operation over a ring based on number theory transformation (NTT) algorithm for Aigis-sig was designed.Besides, based on this architecture, software/hardware co-design and implementation for Aigis-sig scheme on FPGA platform in cryptography was proposed.Experimental results show that the speed of signature phase and verification phase are increased by about 26% and 17% respectively, compared with the pure software implementation on Xilinx Zynq-7000 SoC platform when CPU clock frequency and hardware clock frequency are set as 666.66MHz and 150 MHz respectively.…”

Post-quantum encryption technology based on BRLWE for internet of things by Yitian GAO, Liquan CHEN, Tianyang TU, Yuan GAO, Qianye CHEN

“…With the development of quantum computers, the classical public key encryption system is not capable enough to guarantee the communication security of internet of things (IoT).Because the mathematical puzzles which post-quantum encryption algorithms are based on cannot yet be broken by quantum computers, these new algorithms have good anti-quantum computing security.In particular, the lattice-based cryptography is expected to become the main technology of the next generation public key cryptosystem.However, post-quantum encryption algorithms have the disadvantages of large amount of computation and high storage space.The communication efficiency of IoT will be affected if post-quantum encryption algorithms are directly applied to the lightweight device under IoT environment.In order to better guarantee the communication security and improve the commutation efficiency of IoT, Sym-BRLWE (symmetrical binary RLWE) encryption scheme was proposed.Sym-BRLWE was improved from the existing post-quantum encryption scheme based on BRLWE (binary ringlearning with errors) problem.Specifically, Sym-BRLWE encryption algorithm met the efficiency requirements of IoT via improving the random number selection on the discrete uniform distribution and the calculation of the polynomial multiplication.Sym-BRLWE encryption algorithm achieved high efficiency and high security via adding encryption security precautions, then it is more suitable for IoT lightweight devices.From the security analysis, the proposed Sym-BRLWE encryption scheme had high security.It could theoretically resist lattice attacks, timing attacks, simple power analysis (SPA) and differential power analysis (DPA).From simulation experiments, which were carried out in a binary computing environment simulating an 8-bit micro-device, the proposed Sym-BRLWE encryption scheme has high efficiency and small key size in encryption and decryption.It could reduce the total encryption time by 30% to 40% when compared with other BRLWE-based encryption schemes with the parameter selection of the 140 bit quantum security level.…”

‘Splendid Little Soldiers’—Invasion, Empire and the Fantasy of Dominance in Saki’s When William Came by Petra Rau

“…This inverted imperialist dynamic in fiction, however, has to engage with modes of resistance to British imperialism as they are beginning to manifest themselves in reality. This strategy undermines the imperialist ethos and its continuing fantasy of dominance upon which the novel’s outrageous dystopia is based, foreshadowing not just the contortions of WWI propaganda but the real end of the British Empire.…”
