1 Department of Software The University of Babylon LECTURE NOTES ON Quantum Cryptography By Dr. Samaher Hussein Ali College of Information Technology, University of Babylon, Iraq
2 Introduction One: hard problems in mathematics Breaking the system requires an efficient algorithm for solving a hard problem e.g. Factoring large numbers, discrete logarithms Examples: RSA, El Gamal Used in public key systems Slow Two: information theory Texts scrambled by repeated application of bit shifts and permutations Examples: DES, AES Used in private key systems Fast Dr. Samaher Hussein Ali Notes of Lecture 15
3 Technology Determines What is Breakable RSA Cryptosystem C = M e mod n d = e -1 mod ((p-1) (q-1)) RSA vs. supercomputer: 40 Tflop/s (4 x flop/sec) RSA wins! RSA vs. Quantum Computer computer wins!
4 Modern Ciphers vs. Quantum Computer Hard problem variety Exponential speedup easily breaks algorithms such as RSA If information requires long term protection (e.g. 20+ years), these algorithms are already dead Information theory variety Quadratic speedup (so far) Longer keys can keep them useful
5 Quantum Crypto Why? Quantum Cryptography is one of the new field in the cryptography to design the system promises of new level of security in the communication system Protect against attack by quantum computer or any future machine Eavesdropping detection Hard to do now High volume key distribution If it can be made fast enough
6 Quantum Mechanics for Cryptography Measurement Basis Basis frame of reference for quantum measurement Example polarization vertical/horizontal vs. diagonal Horizontal filter, light gets through = 0 Vertical filter, light gets through = 1 45 deg. filter, light = deg. filter, light = 1
7 No cloning theorem It is not possible to create perfect copies of a quantum state in transit for the purpose of measurement, while sending on the original. Consequently, current practical quantum cryptography setups are point to point based or at best within a Local Area Network since optical fiber amplifiers cannot be used.
8 Entanglement Two or more quantum systems can be entangled Causality and Superposition Causality, together with the superposition principle can be used for secure key distribution. If the two terms that constitute a superposition state are sent with a time delay relative to each other, and if they are not essentially connected, then Eve cannot spy on them.
9 A Quantum Key Distribution with Single Photons The transmitter is traditionally called Alice and the receiver Bob, while the intruder is called Eve. Single photons Quantum key distribution with single polarized photons was originally proposed by Bennett and Brassard in 1984 (BB84 protocol). There are two data transmission channels involved: the classical (high density) and quantum (low density) channels.
10 BB84 protocol Alice sends randomly one of the four quantum states Bit value 0 Bit value 1 0, 1, with equal probability, When Bob receives a state from Alice, he chooses randomly either 0, 1, And also Bob result correlates with the bit Alice sent only when he picked the right basis i.e. the one used by Alice. After Bob has measured the necessary number of states, Alice communicates with Bob via the classical channel and tells him when she used which basis. They discard the cases in which they used different bases, and therefore establish a secret key, called the sifted key
11 Comparing measurements Alice s Bit Alice s Basis + + Photon Bob s Basis Bob s Bit The test bits allow Alice and Bob to test whether the channel is secure. Test bits
12 Getting the Final Key Alice s Bit Alice s Basis + + Photon Bob s Basis Bob s Bit Test bits discarded Final Key = 01
13 Quantum Eavesdropping It is impossible for Eve to gain perfect knowledge of the quantum state sent by Alice to Bob. However, Eve can gain partial knowledge via a probing auxiliary quantum system in contact with the signal so that they interact, and then perform a projection measurement on the auxiliary system to retrieve some information. Ideally we can always identify Eve by the occurrence of errors during transmission. But this is not that easy in the real world. There will always be detector noise, misalignments of detectors and transmission losses. It is not even possible in principle to distinguish errors due to noise from errors due to intrusion. We therefore have to assume that all errors are due to eavesdropping. Since it is necessary that Alice and Bob share an identical string of bits, they must rectify any discrepancy in their sifted key. This concerns error correction and uses the public channel.
