Three-Party Password Authentication and Key Exchange Protocol Based on MLWE
Abstract
With the rapid development of quantum theory, the discrete logarithm problem and significant integer factorization problem have polynomial solution algorithms under quantum computing, and their security is seriously threatened. Therefore, a three-party password-authenticated key agreement scheme based on module learning with errors problem was proposed, and its security was proved in the BPR model. Compared with other password-authenticated key agreement protocols, the proposed protocol has higher efficiency and a shorter key length, which can resist quantum attacks. Therefore, the protocol is efficient and secure and suitable for large-scale network communication.
