Title:
Compact, Efficient and CCA-Secure Updatable Encryption from Isogenies
Authors: Antonin Leroux, Maxime Roméas
Abstract:Updatable Encryption (UE) allows ciphertexts to be updated under new keys without decryption, enabling efficient key rotation. Constructing post-quantum UE with strong security guarantees is challenging: the only known CCA-secure scheme, COM-UE, uses bitwise encryption, resulting in large ciphertexts and high computational costs.
We introduce DINE, a CCA-secure, isogeny-based post-quantum UE scheme that is both compact and efficient. Each encryption, decryption, or update requires only a few power-of-2 isogeny computations in dimension 2 to encrypt 28B messages, yielding 320B ciphertexts and 224B update tokens at NIST security level 1—significantly smaller than prior constructions. Our full C implementation demonstrates practical performances: updates in 7ms, encryptions in 48ms, and decryptions in 86ms.
Our design builds on recent advances in isogeny-based cryptography, combining high-dimensional isogeny representations with the Deuring correspondence. We also introduce new algorithms for the Deuring correspondence which may be of independent interest. Moreover, the security of our scheme relies on new problems that might open interesting perspectives in isogeny-based cryptography.
