This book discusses the current research concerning public key
cryptosystems. It begins with an introduction to the basic concepts
of multivariate cryptography and the history of this field. The
authors provide a detailed description and security analysis of the
most important multivariate public key schemes, including the four
multivariate signature schemes participating as second round
candidates in the NIST standardization process for post-quantum
cryptosystems. Furthermore, this book covers the Simple Matrix
encryption scheme, which is currently the most promising
multivariate public key encryption scheme. This book also covers
the current state of security analysis methods for Multivariate
Public Key Cryptosystems including the algorithms and theory of
solving systems of multivariate polynomial equations over finite
fields. Through the book's website, interested readers can find
source code to the algorithms handled in this book. In 1994, Dr.
Peter Shor from Bell Laboratories proposed a quantum algorithm
solving the Integer Factorization and the Discrete Logarithm
problem in polynomial time, thus making all of the currently used
public key cryptosystems, such as RSA and ECC insecure. Therefore,
there is an urgent need for alternative public key schemes which
are resistant against quantum computer attacks. Researchers
worldwide, as well as companies and governmental organizations have
put a tremendous effort into the development of post-quantum public
key cryptosystems to meet this challenge. One of the most promising
candidates for this are Multivariate Public Key Cryptosystems
(MPKCs). The public key of an MPKC is a set of multivariate
polynomials over a small finite field. Especially for digital
signatures, numerous well-studied multivariate schemes offering
very short signatures and high efficiency exist. The fact that
these schemes work over small finite fields, makes them suitable
not only for interconnected computer systems, but also for small
devices with limited resources, which are used in ubiquitous
computing. This book gives a systematic introduction into the field
of Multivariate Public Key Cryptosystems (MPKC), and presents the
most promising multivariate schemes for digital signatures and
encryption. Although, this book was written more from a
computational perspective, the authors try to provide the necessary
mathematical background. Therefore, this book is suitable for a
broad audience. This would include researchers working in either
computer science or mathematics interested in this exciting new
field, or as a secondary textbook for a course in MPKC suitable for
beginning graduate students in mathematics or computer science.
Information security experts in industry, computer scientists and
mathematicians would also find this book valuable as a guide for
understanding the basic mathematical structures necessary to
implement multivariate cryptosystems for practical applications.
