A New Efficient Asymmetric Cryptosystem Based on the Square Root Problem

preprint2012arXivOpen access

Abstract

The square root modulo problem is a known primitive in designing an asymmetric cryptosystem. It was first attempted by Rabin. Decryption failure of the Rabin cryptosystem caused by the 4-to-1 decryption output is overcome efficiently in this work. The proposed scheme (known as the AA_β- cryptosystem) has its encryption speed having a complexity order faster than the Diffie-Hellman Key Exchange, El-Gammal, RSA and ECC. It can also transmit a larger data set securely when compared to existing asymmetric schemes. It has a simple mathematical structure. Thus, it would have low computational requirements and would enable communication devices with low computing power to deploy secure communication procedures efficiently.
