Cryptanalysis of a generic one-round key exchange protocol with strong security
By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Computers, Networks & Communications -- Investigators publish new report on Information Technology - Information and Data Encoding and Encryption. According to news originating from Chongqing, People’s Republic of China, by VerticalNews correspondents, research stated, “In Public-Key Cryptography (PKC) 2015, Bergsma et al. introduced an interesting one-round key exchange protocol (which will be referred to as BJS scheme) with strong security in particular for perfect forward secrecy (PFS).”
Our news journalists obtained a quote from the research from the Chongqing University of Technology, “In this study, the authors unveil a PFS attack against the BJS scheme. This would simply invalidate its security proof.”
According to the news editors, the research concluded: “An improvement is proposed to fix the problem of the BJS scheme with minimum changes.”
