Produktbeschreibung
Random numbers are used in a lot of applications. In
particular, they are essential for most of
the cryptographic systems.
Pseudorandom generator is a mechanism for producing
random numbers on a deterministic computer. A
pseudorandom generator is said to be
cryptographically secure if its output cannot be
distinguished from uniformly random in a reasonable
time. In some cases, it is possible to prove that a
pseudorandom generator is cryptographically secure
under an assumption that a mathematical problem is
hard to solve. Such pseudorandom generators are
called provably secure.
This book accomplishes several goals. First, it
presents the security analysis of several existing
pseudorandom generators such as the classical RSA
generator and the recently developed Dual Elliptic
Curve generator. Second, it describes a new family of
provably secure pseudorandom generators. Third, the
security of complex cryptographic systems that use
pseudorandom generators is analyzed. Finally, the
book revisits the problem of converting random bits
into random numbers.
The book is intended for both mathematicians and
engineers.
Autorenporträt
Currently Dr. Andrey Sidorenko is a security evaluator
at Brightsight BV in the Netherlands. He is involved in security
assessment of smart cards, payment terminals, and hardware
security modules.
The Ph.D. thesis that Andrey Sidorenko completed in 2007 at TU
Eindhoven has become the basis for this book.
