Abstract:

A traditional security model in which two honest parties want to securely communicate over untrustworthy channel is no longer sufficient to fully capture modern information society. Applications such as Digital Right Management systems (DRM) require cryptographic operations to be performed at potentially malicious sites. In this thesis we focus on ciphers which are meant to be secure in whitebox attack context, i.e. an attacker should not be able to learn the key even by observing and/or modifying the implementation and execution of the cipher. First, we summarize existing efforts in the field, both in algorithm making [5] [12] [13] and cryptanalysis [18] [4] [43]. Second, we propose a new white-box implementation of slightly modified Blowfish cipher. We argue that addition modulo 232 in Blowfish F function effectively precludes secure white-box implementation and suggest that it is replaced with xor. After a brief discussion why this step does not compromise the cipher, we present modified white-box Blowfish where each round is represented by 16 keyed S-Boxes (T-Boxes) and one mixing bijection. The implementation consists of series of look-up tables with 210 rows. Total size of them is roughly 12 MB.
