Title:
Quantum Security of TNT

Authors: Shuping Mao, Zhiyu Zhang, Lei Hu, Luying Li, Peng Wang

Abstract:

With the development of quantum attacks, many classical-secure structures are not secure in quantum. How to evaluate the quantum security of structure and give a tight security bound becomes a challenging research topic. As a tweakable block cipher structure based on block ciphers, \mathsf{TNT} was proven to be of classical beyond-birthday-bound O(2^{3n/4}) security. We prove that \mathsf{TNT} is a quantum-secure tweakable block cipher with a bound of O(2^{n/6}). In addition, we show the tight quantum PRF security bound of O(2^{n/3}) when \mathsf{TNT} is based on random functions, which is better than O(2^{n/4}) given by Bhaumik et al. and solves their open problem. Our proof uses the recording standard oracle with errors technique of Hosoyamada and Iwata based on Zhandry’s compressed oracle technique.
