Abstract

We first present a protocol which reduces 1-out-of-n oblivious transfer OT m to 1out-of-n oblivious transfer OT k for n > 2 in random oracle model, and show that the protocol is secure against malicious sender and semi-honest receiver. Then, by employing a cut-and-choose technique, we obtain a variant of the basic protocol which is secure against a malicious receiver.

Non-interactive Oblivious Transfer Protocols

Jing Qin, Zhao Huawei, Mingqiang Wang

Two novel constructions of one out of n oblivious transfer protocols from bilinear maps between groups are proposed. The protocols satisfy the category of non-interactive, mean that any sender S can obliviously transfer some secret(s) to a receiver R, but R does not send any messages back to S. The choice of a receiver is unconditionally secure. A sender's secrecy is guaranteed if the receiver is semi-honest in a standard model since the decision bilinear Diffie-Hellman problem is hard and the sender's secrecy is achieved when the receiver is a malicious party in a random oracle model since the bilinear Diffie-Hellman problem assumption holds. When a sender is a cheating party, the receiver will detect him/her and halt the protocol. A precise proof of the security of the protocols is presented.

Efficient oblivious transfer protocols

Moni Naor, Benny Pinkas B

1 IntroductionOblivious Transfer (OT) protocols allow one party, the sender, to transmit part of its inputs to another party, the chooser, in a manner that protects both of them: the sender is assured that the chooser does not receive more information than it is entitled, while the chooser is assured that the sender does not learn which part of the inputs it received. OT is used as a key component in many applications of cryptography. Its computational requirements are quite demanding and they are likely to be the bottleneck in many applications that invoke it.1.1 Contributions.This paper presents several significant improvements to oblivious transfer (OT) protocols of strings, and in particular: (i) Improving the efficiency of applications which many invocations of oblivious transfer. (ii) Providing the first two-round OT protocol whose security analysis does not invoke the random oracle model.

Simulatable Adaptive Oblivious Transfer.

Jan L. Camenisch, Gregory Neven, Abhi A. Shelat

Abstract. We study an adaptive variant of oblivious transfer in which a sender has N messages, of which a receiver can adaptively choose to re-ceive k one-after-the-other, in such a way that (a) the sender learns noth-ing about the receiver’s selections, and (b) the receiver only learns about the k requested messages. We propose two practical protocols for this primitive that achieve a stronger security notion than previous schemes with comparable efficiency. In particular, by requiring full simulatabil-ity for both sender and receiver security, our notion prohibits a subtle selective-failure attack not addressed by the security notions achieved by previous practical schemes. Our first protocol is a very efficient generic construction from unique blind signatures in the random oracle model. The second construction does not assume random oracles, but achieves remarkable efficiency with only a constant number of group elements sent during each transfer. This second construction uses novel techniques for building efficient simulat-able protocols. 1

k out of n Oblivious Transfer Protocols from Bilinear Pairings

Jing Qin, Huawei Zhao

T wo non-interactive three parties k out of n oblivious transfer protocols from bilinear pairings are proposed i n this paper. In these protocols , a sender can obliviously transfer n messages to a receiver without communication with him/her. The public keys that a sender used to encrypt his/her messages are made by a third party. The receiver can extract k out of n messages at his/her choices by using the corresponding secret keys. The choices of the receiver are unconditionally secure. The sender's secrecy is guaranteed if the receiver is semi-honest in the standard model since the decision bilinear Diffie-Hellman problem (DBDH) is hard and the sender's secrecy is achieved when the receiver is a malicious party in the random oracle model since the bilinear Diffie-Hellman problem assumption (BDHA) holds. When a sender is a cheating party, the receiver will detect him/her and halt the protocol. A precise proof of the security of the protocols is presented.

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
