The existing unconditional security definitions of quantum key distribution (QKD) do not apply to joint attacks over QKD and the subsequent use of the resulting key. In this paper...

—In this paper, we formulate and realize a definition of security for three-party key distribution within the universally composable (UC) framework. That is, an appropriate ideal...
Abstract. We propose and realize a definition of security for passwordbased key exchange within the framework of universally composable (UC) security, thus providing security guar...

It has been said that quantum cryptography in general o ers a secure solution to the problem of key enhancement. This means that two parties who already share a small secret key, ...
We propose the first distributed discrete-log key generation (DLKG) protocol from scratch which is adaptively-secure in the non-erasure model, and at the same time completely avoi...
