Exam 14: Lightweight Cryptography and Post-Quantum Cryptography

__________ cryptography is a subfield of cryptography concerned with the development of cryptographic algorithms for resource-constrained devices.

Digital signatures is one of the categories of asymmetric algorithms that are vulnerable to quantum computing.

For any given algorithm, the longer the key and the more rounds, the greater the security.

the term __________ refers to the characteristic that a cryptographic algorithm makes minimal resource demands on the host system.

A microprocessor is also called a "computer on a chip".

A (n)__________ uses a microcontroller, is not programmable once the program logic for the device has been burned into ROM, and has no interaction with a user.

the term __________ refers to a polynomial in more than one variable.

traditional hash functions may not meet the requirements for implementation on constrained devices.

__________ searches an unordered list in O(n) time, while conventional algorithms require O(n).

the term __________ refers to a polynomial of degree 2.

Chip area is of concern when a cryptographic algorithm is implemented in hardware.

A __________ consists of a set of cryptographic algorithms together with the key management processes that support use of the algorithms in some application context.

An enterprise should have policies for the maximum cryptoperiod of each key type.

the main elements of a RFID system are tags and __________ .

A(n) __________ can be defined as any device that includes a computer chip, but that is not a general-purpose workstation, desktop, or laptop computer.

Constrained devices are not particularly vulnerable to side-channel attacks because they are physically secure.

__________ refers to the use of electroinics and software within a product that has a specific function or set of functions.

A __________ is an attack enabled by a leakage of information from a physical cryptosystem.

there are very few types of devices with embedded systems.

Public-key cryptography supports three critical cryptographic functionalities: public-key encryption, digital signatures, and __________ .
