One time pad generation using quantum superposition states

Gaurav K. Upadhyay, Manisha J. Nene

Modern cryptography offers three goals of Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability, known as CIA triad. Confidentiality of any message or communication is secrecy of its content. All the modern cryptosystems provide cryptographic secrecy and not perfect secrecy. Two ingredients of perfect secrecy are truly random source and secure communication channel. Both are available in quantum computing paradigm. However, Quantum Computers are not yet commercially available. Certain time-tested cryptographic techniques in classical computing can be combined with principles of quantum computing to to achieve the goal of perfect secrecy. Theoretically, One Time Pad (OTP) is proven to be unconditionally secure. The paper suggests an hybrid approach to cryptography by generating OTP using quantum superposition states. The results of OTP generation are corroborated with theoretical values. The OTP so generated by realization of the suggested approach on a classical system is found to pass the test for randomness.

Approaching Shannon's One-Time Pad: Metrics, Architectures, and Enabling Technologies

Li Sun, Xianhui Lu, Peng Liu +3 more

The rapid development of advanced computing technologies such as quantum computing imposes new challenges to current wireless security mechanism which is based on cryptographic approaches. To deal with various attacks and realize long-lasting security, we are in urgent need of disruptive security solutions. In this article, novel security transmission paradigms are proposed to approach Shannon's one-time pad perfect secrecy. First, two metrics, termed as Degree-of-Approaching (DoA) and Degree-of-Synchronous-Approaching (DoSA), are developed to characterize the closeness between the achieved security strength and perfect secrecy. These two metrics also serve as a guideline for secure transmission protocol design. After that, we present two paths towards Shannon's one-time pad, i.e., an explicit-encryption based approach and an implicit-encryption based approach. For both of them, we discuss the architecture design, enabling technologies, as well as preliminary performance evaluation results. The techniques presented in this article provide promising security-enhancing solutions for future wireless networks.
