More Efficient Oblivious Transfer and Extensions for Faster Secure Computation.

Gilad Asharov, Yehuda Lindell, Thomas H. Schneider +1 more

Oblivious transfer (OT) is one of the most fundamental primitives in cryptography and is widely used in protocols for secure two-party and multi-party computation. As secure com-putation becomes more practical, the need for practical large scale oblivious transfer protocols is becoming more evident. Oblivious transfer extensions are protocols that enable a relatively small number of “base-OTs ” to be utilized to compute a very large number of OTs at low cost. In the semi-honest setting, Ishai et al. (CRYPTO 2003) presented an OT extension protocol for which the cost of each OT (beyond the base-OTs) is just a few hash function operations. In the malicious setting, Nielsen et al. (CRYPTO 2012) presented an efficient OT extension protocol for the setting of active adversaries, that is secure in the random oracle model. In this work, we present an OT extension protocol for the setting of malicious adversaries that is more efficient and uses less communication than previous works. In addition, our protocol can be proven secure in both the random oracle model, and in the standard model with a type of correlation robustness. Given the importance of OT in many secure computation protocols, increasing the efficiency of OT extensions is another important step forward to making secure

Fast Cut-and-Choose Bilateral Oblivious Transfer for Malicious Adversaries

Xiaochao Wei, Han Jiang, Chuan Zhao +2 more

In secure two-party computation protocols based on garbled circuit, oblivious transfer (OT) plays an important role in transferring the garbled keys of the participants. In addition to the traditional OT primitive, many other variants of OT have also been presented, such as outsourced oblivious transfer (OOT), cut-and-choose oblivious transfer (CCOT), cut-and-choose bilateral oblivious transfer (CCBOT), etc. These new primitives significantly improve the efficiency and feasibility of secure two-party computation protocols, mainly in optimising computational complexity and interactive rounds. Among these primitives, CCBOT proposed by Zhao et al. in TrustCom 2015 is a novel one and helps to minimize the round complexity of the outer secure two-party computation protocols. In addition, they constructed a CCBOT protocol based on homomorphic encryption scheme in the malicious model. However, their protocol uses the cut-and-choose technique to guarantee security against malicious adversaries, as a result the protocol has an error probability. The commitment scheme is also inevitably involved in their protocol. In this paper, we present a CCBOT protocol with the security against malicious adversaries based on the Decisional Diffie-Hellman (DDH) assumption. Our proposed protocol avoids using the cut-and-choose technique and commitment scheme. In terms of efficiency, our protocol is much more efficient than the previous protocol.
