  11. 2. Definitions and evolutions of problems => Diffie-Hellman key exchange (1976) (1) Randomly select a,Compute Ya=ga mod p (1) Randomly select b,Compute Yb=gb mod p (2) Ya Bob Alice (2*) Yb (3*) Compute Yba=(Ya)b mod p (3) Compute Yab=(Yb)a mod p • DH-scheme provides two-party key agreement • Global parameters: (g, p) • p: a large prime, say, 1024-bit long • g: a generator for group Zp* Discrete logarithm problem K=Yab=Yba=gab mod p

  12. Group key establishment protocol allows users to construct a group key that is used to encrypt/decrypt transmitted messages among the users over an open communication channel. Categories: Group key distribution there is a chairman who is responsible for generating a common key and then securely distributing this group key to the other users. Group key agreement involves all users cooperatively constructing a group key. 2. Definitions and evolutions of problems
