Foundations of Cryptography NPTEL Week 3 Assignment Solutions
Q1. Select the incorrect option(s) from the following:
a) Stream ciphers are deterministic
b) Stream ciphers are randomized
c) Same key can be used for encrypting multiple messages in stream ciphers
d) Stream ciphers are single-message CPA-secure
Answer: b), c), d)
Q2. Which of the following is/are false for One-Way Functions (OWF)?
a) They are randomized functions
b) They are difficult to invert for all elements from the co-domain
c) They are always one-to-one function
d) They are deterministic functions
Answer: a), b), c)
Q3. Which of the following candidates is(are) not necessarily secure PRF(s)? In all the following options, Fs (x) is a secure PRF, where x,s∈{0,1}n and output is also an n-bit string.
a) Gs(x) = Fs(x) ⊕ Fs(x̄)
b) Gs(x) = 1 || Fs(x), where || denotes the concatenation operation
c) Gs(x) = F Fs(x) (x)
Answer: a), b)
Q4.
a) Algorithm Enck is single-message COA-secure
b) Algorithm Enck is single-message CPA-secure
c) Algorithm Enck is multi-message CPA-secure
d) None of these
Answer: a)
Q5. Let II = (Gen, Enc, Dec) be a symmetric-key cipher. Then consider a variant II’ = (Gen, Enc’, Dec’) of II, where Enc’k(m) = Enck (reverse(m)). The steps of Dec’ are performed accordingly. Here reverse(m) denotes the bit string obtained by reversing the order of the bits of m.
a) If II is single-message COA-secure, then II’ is also single-message COA-secure
b) If II is multi-message COA-secure, then II’ is also multi-message COA-secure
c) If II is CPA-secure, then II’ is also single-message CPA-secure
d) None of these
Answer: a), b), c)
