I was asked to read this
Fundamentals of a classical chaos-based cryptosystem with some quantum
cryptography similarities
Vidal G, Baptista MS & Mancini H
International Journal of Bifurcation and Chaos
World Scientific Publishing Company
I am not aware of a single quality paper on chaos-based cryptography. I've
never even seen a paper on chaos-based cryptography where the authors had
the slightest idea of what secure encryption means, or how to do anything
beyond the most basic cryptanalysis.
The submission probably belongs in the reject pile.
Abstract: We present the fundamentals of a cryptographic method
based on a hyperchaotic system and a protocol which
inherits some properties of the quantum cryptography but
that can be straightforwardly applied on the existing
communication systems of non-optical communication channels,
and it is an appropriate tool to provide security on
software applications for VoIP, as in Skype, dedicated
to voice communication through Internet. This would enable
that an information packet be sent through Internet
preventing attacks with similar strategies to the employed
if this same packet is transferred in an optical channel
under a quantum cryptographic scheme. This method relies
on fundamental properties that chaotic signals and coupled
chaotic systems have. Some of these properties had never
been explored to communicate securely.
I clearly need to read something else first.
Suggestions?
