Public Key Cryptography• It is used two keys for encryption and for decryption.
– a public-key, which may be known by anybody, and can be used to encrypt messages
– a private-key, known only to the recipient, used to decrypt messages
• It has six ingredient1 Plain text2 Encryption algorithm3 Public and private keys4 Ciphertext5 Decryption algorithm

Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Public-Key Characteristics
• Public-Key algorithms rely on two keys where:– it is computationally infeasible to find decryption key
knowing only algorithm & encryption key– it is computationally easy to en/decrypt messages when the
relevant (en/decrypt) key is known– either of the two related keys can be used for encryption,
with the other used for decryption (for some algorithms)

Public key Cryptosystem : Authentication and secrecy
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Requirement of Public key Cryptography 1. It is easy for party B to generate a pair of keys (public key PUb ,
Private key PRb).
2. It is easy for a sender A , knowing the public key and message to be encrypt. C=E(PUb, M)
3. It is easy for receiver B to decrypt the resulting ciphertext using the private key . M=D(PRb,C)=D[PRb,E(PUb,M)]
4. It is infeasible for an any person , to know the public key PUb to determine the private key PRb.
5. It is infeasible for any person to know the public key PUb and a
ciphertext C to recover the original message M.6. Two keys can be applied in either order
M=DP[PUb, E(PRb,M)] = D[PRb,E(PUb, M)]

Diffie –Hellman Key Exchange
in 1976
• It is used by two users to securely exchange a key that can be used for subsequent encryption of messages.
a public-key distribution scheme – cannot be used to exchange an arbitrary message – rather it can establish a common key – known only to the two participants
value of key depends on the participants (and their private and public key information)
based on mathematical principles security relies on the difficulty of computing discrete logarithms (similar
to factoring) – hard

Digital Signature
Encryption, message authentication and digital signatures are all tools of modern cryptography.
A signature is a technique for non-repudiation based on the public key cryptography.
The creator of a message can attach a code, the signature, which guarantees the source and integrity of the message.
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Digital signature process
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Properties of Signatures
Similar to handwritten signatures, digital signatures must fulfill the following: Recipients must be able to verify themSigners must not be able to repudiate them later
In addition, digital signatures cannot be constant and must be a function of the entire document it signs
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Types of SignaturesDirect digital signature – involves only the communicating
partiesAssumed that receiver knows public key of sender.Signature may be formed by (1) encrypting entire
message with sender’s private key or (2) encrypting hash code of message with sender’s private key.
Further encryption of entire message + signature with receiver’s public key or shared private key ensures confidentiality.
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar

Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Types of SignaturesArbitrated digital signature – involves a trusted third party
or arbiterEvery signed message from sender, X, to receiver, Y,
goes to an arbiter (authority), A, first.A subjects message + signature to number of tests to
check origin & contentA date the message and sends it to Y with indication
that it has been verified to its satisfaction

where L= 512 to 1024 bits and is a multiple of 64– choose q with 2159 < q < 2160
such that q is a 160 bit prime divisor of (p-1)– choose g = h(p-1)/q
where 1<h<p-1 and h(p-1)/q mod p > 1
users choose private key & compute public key: – choose x<q //Private Key– compute y = gx mod p //Public Key
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
DSA Signature Creation
to sign a message M the sender:
– generates a random signature key k, k<q – k must be random, be destroyed after use,
and never be reusedthen computes signature pair:
r = (gk mod p)mod q s = [k-1(H(M)+ xr)] mod q
sends signature (r,s) with message M
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
DSA Signature Verification
having received M & signature (r,s) to verify a signature, recipient computes:
w = s-1 mod q u1= [H(M)w ]mod q u2= (rw)mod qv = [(gu1 yu2)mod p ]mod q
if v=r then signature is verified

Group
a set of elements or “numbers” , denoted by {G,.}
• Rules:– associative law: (a.b).c = a.(b.c) – Closure : if a and b belong to G then a.b also in G
– identity e: e.a = a.e = a – inverses a-1: a.a-1 = e
• if commutative a.b = b.a – then forms an abelian group
The .is generic can be addition,
multiplication ,substraction etc.
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Ring• a set of “numbers” denoted by {R,+, X}• with two operations (addition and multiplication) which form:• an abelian group with addition operation and multiplication:
– has closure :is a and b belong to R , then ab is also in R– is associative : a(bc)=(ab)c for all a,b,c in R– distributive over addition: a(b+c) = ab + ac
(a+b)c = ac + bc• if multiplication operation is commutative, it forms a commutative
ring i.e. ab = ba for all a, b in R
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Prime Factorisation• to factor a number n is to write it as a product
of other numbers: n=a x b x c • note that factoring a number is relatively hard
compared to multiplying the factors together to generate the number
• the prime factorisation of a number n is when its written as a product of primes – eg. 91=7x13 ; 3600=24x32x52
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Modular Arithmetic• define modulo operator “a mod n” to be
remainder when a is divided by n
eg. 11 mod 7=4
• congruent modulo
Two integer a and b are said to be congruent modulo n if,
a mod n = b mod n
eg. 75 mod 10 = 85 mod 10
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Divisors• say a non-zero number b divides a if for some m have
a=mb (a,b,m all integers) • that is b divides into a with no remainder • denote this b|a • and say that b is a divisor of a • eg. all of 1,2,3,4,6,8,12,24 divide 24
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Modular Arithmetic Operations
Properties of Modular Arithmetic (a+b) mod n = [a mod n + b mod n] mod n
<proof>(a-b) mod n = [a mod n - b mod n] mod n(a X b) mod n = [a mod n X b mod n] mod nEg. (11 + 15 ) mod 8 = [11 mod 8 + 15 mod 8] mod 8

Greatest Common Divisor (GCD)• GCD (a,b) of a and b is the greatest number that
divides evenly into both a and b – eg GCD(60,24) = 12 The positive integer c is said to be the greatest
common divisor of a and b if
1. C is a divisor of a and of b
2. Any divisor of a and b is a divisor of c
It is denoted by
gcd(a,b)= max[k, such that k/a and k/b]

Euclid Algorithm
In mathematics, the Euclidean algorithm (also called Euclid's algorithm) is an efficient method for computing the greatest common divisor (GCD), also known as the greatest common factor (GCF) or highest common factor (HCF). It is named after the Greek mathematician Euclid (in BC 300) The greatest common divisor g is the largest natural number that divides both a and b without leaving a remainder .
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar

– GCD(a,b) = GCD(b, a mod b) • Euclidean Algorithm to compute GCD(a,b) is:

Euler Theorem
Swiss mathematician noted both for his work in analysis and algebra, including complex numbers and logarithms, and his introduction of much of the basic notation in mathematics.
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Relatively Prime Numbers
• Two numbers a, b are relatively prime if have no
common divisors apart from 1 – eg. 8 & 15 are relatively prime since factors of 8 are 1,2,4,8 and of
15 are 1,3,5,15 and 1 is the only common factor.
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Euler Totient Function ø(n)• It is define as the number of positive integer less than n
and relatively prime to n.• Since a number less than or equal to and
relatively prime to a given number is called a totative.• A totient function can be simply defined as the number
of totatives of n.• For example, there are eight totatives of 24 (1, 5, 7, 11,
13, 17, 19, and 23), so ø(24)=8
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Euler Totient Function ø(n)
Eg. Determine ø(35)
Now find out list of all positive integer less than 35 that are relatively prime to it:
1,2,3,4,6,8,9,11,12,13,16,17,18,19,22, 23,24,26,27,29,31,32,33,34
Science there are 24 numbers so, ø(35)=24
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Euler's Theorem• Theorem : Euler’s theorem states that for every a and n ,and if
they are relatively prime then,aø(n) ≡ 1 (mod n)
• The theorem may be used to easily reduce large powers modulo n.
• consider finding the last decimal digit of 7222, i.e. 7222 (mod 10). • Note that 7 and 10 are relatively prime, and φ(10) = 4.• So Euler's theorem yields 74 ≡ 1 (mod 10), • and we get 7222 ≡ 74x55 + 2 ≡ (74)55x72 ≡ 155x72 ≡ 49 ≡ 49 (mod 10) = 9
Exp of Totient RSA
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
In general, when reducing a power of a modulo n (where a and n are relatively prime), one needs to work modulo φ(n) in the exponent of a:
if x ≡ y (mod φ(n)), then ax ≡ ay (mod n)

Story behind CRTAn old woman goes to market and a horse steps on her
basket and crashes the eggs. The rider offers to pay for the damages and asks her how many eggs she had brought. She does not remember the exact number, but when she had taken them out two at a time, there was one egg left. The same happened when she picked them out three, four, five, and six at a time, but when she took them seven at a time they came out even. What is the smallest number of eggs she could have had?
Problems of this kind are all examples of what universally became known as the Chinese Remainder Theorem.

Today’s Agenda
• Message Digests • Hash Functions • Message Authentication • Secure Hash Function
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Message digests
• A technique used to establish whether text sent over a network has been tampered or not.
• It consists of a mathematical rule which, when applied to a piece of text, generates a relatively short number, usually between 128 and 512 bits.
• This number is then sent with the text to a recipient who reapplies the mathematical rule to the text and compares the result with the original number.
• If they are the same then there is a very high probability that the message has not been tampered with during the sending process; if it does differ it is virtually certain that the message has been tampered with.
• It is not useful for active attack.
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
MD4– A one-way hash function that produces a 128-bit hash, or message digest. – If as little as a single bit value in the file is modified, the MD4 checksum for the
file will change. – Forgery of a file in a way that will cause MD4 to generate the same result as
that for the original file is considered extremely difficult.MD5
– An improved, and more complex, version of MD4– circa 1992– 128-bit hash– "almost broken" by Hans Dobbertin circa 1995– Fully broken by collision attack Wang et. al. 2004
Data Encryption Standard (DES)– Symmetric, feistel cipher – Key size (in bits): 112 or 168 – Time to crack (assume a machine could try 255 keys per second - NIST): 4.6
billion yearsAdvanced Encryption Standard (AES)
– Symmetric, block cipher– Key size (in bits): 128, 192, 256– Time to crack (assume a machine could try 255 keys per second - NIST): 149
trillion yearsSecure Hash Algorithm (SHA)
– produces a 160-bit hash, longer than MD5. – The algorithm is slightly slower than MD5, but the larger message digest makes
it more secure against brute-force collision and inversion attacks.

Checksums • A checksum or hash sum is a fixed-size data computed from
an arbitrary block of digital data for the purpose of detecting accidental errors that may have been introduced during its transmission or storage.
• The integrity of the data can be checked at any later time by recomputing the checksum and comparing it with the stored one.
• If the checksums do not match, the data was almost certainly altered (either intentionally or unintentionally).
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Checksum Applications
• First, checksum value can be used to check data integrity when data is sent through telecommunication networks such as Internet .
• Second, checksum value can be used to check data integrity of stored data
to see if the data has been modified or changed in any way over time.
• Third, checksum values can be used to verify data burned to CDROM,
CD-R (Compact Disc-Recordable), OR DVD, DVD-R.

Message Authentication
• Message authentication is a mechanism or service used to verify the integrity of a message .
• Most common techniques for message authentication are
1.Message Authentication Code (MAC)
2. Secure Hash Function.
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Message Authentication Code
• It is used to generate a fix –size block of data.• Let A and B share a common secret key K.• When A has to send to B , it calculate the MAC as a function of
the message and the key :
MAC= C(K,M).• The message M pulse MAC are transmitted to the intended
recipient.• The received MAC is compared to the calculated MAC.• Eg: Find out how many times r is occurred in the given
message.• Now , here counting a occurrence of alphabet is a function i.e
C( ) and r is acting as secret key K.
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Hash functions• Reduce arbitrary message to fixed size
– h = H(M)
• Usually assume that the hash function is public and not keyed
• Hash used to detect changes to message
• Can use in various ways with message
• Most often to create a digital signature
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Hash Functions• Take an input from a large domain and return an output
in a smaller range.• Easy to compute.• Eg: Collect the alphabets , which is available at odd
position in word of the message M. i.e. h = H(M)
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Basic Uses of Hash Functions

Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Requirements for Hash Functions• Can be applied to any sized message M• Produces fixed-length output h• Is easy to compute h=H(M) for any message M• Given h is infeasible to find x s.t. H(x)=h
– one-way property• Given x is infeasible to find y s.t. H(y)=H(x)
– weak collision resistance• Is infeasible to find any x,y s.t. H(y)=H(x)
– strong collision resistance
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
• For example, a simple hashing algorithm would be to add up all digits in a number, and take the remainder when divided by 7. Let the hashing function be f(x)
• f(13) = (1+3) % 7 = 4• f(26) = (2+6) % 7 = 1• f(78) = (7+8) % 7 = 1

Secure Hash Algorithm1993
– The hash function SHA-0 was issued as a federal standard by NIST
1995– SHA-1 published as the successor to SHA-0
2002– SHA-2 variants
SHA-256, SHA-384, and SHA-512 published
2004– SHA-224 published
* No known weaknesses have been found with the SHA-2 variants (at this time)
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-384, and SHA-512
All four of the algorithms are iterative, one-way hash functions
process a message to produce a condensed representation called a message digest
These algorithms enable the determination of a message’s integrity– any change to the message will, with a very high probability,
result in a different message digest– This property is useful in the generation and verification of digital
signatures and message authentication codes, and in the generation of random numbers (bits).

Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Flavors of SHASHA-0 SHA-1*SHA-224*SHA-256*SHA-384*SHA-512*
*FIPS-approved algorithm for generating a condensed representation of a message (message digest)
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
The Algorithm
Each algorithm can be described in two stages:– preprocessing
Preprocessing involves padding a message, parsing the padded message into m-bit blocks, and setting initialization values to be used in the hash computation
– hash computationThe hash computation generates a message schedule from
the padded message and uses that schedule, along with functions, constants, and word operations to iteratively generate a series of hash values
– The final hash value generated by the hash computation is used to determine the message digest.
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Algorithm – cont’dStep 1. Padding-padding bits to original message-to make a original message equal to a value which is 64 bits less than an exact multiple of 512.Exp. Let the length of the message is 1000 bits , add a padding of472 bits to make the length of the message 1472 bits.i.e. when we add 64 to 1472 we got 1536 (512 X 3).-padding is always added even if message length is already 64 bits Less than a multiple of 512.Exp. If length of message is 448 bits, add a padding 512 bits to make its length 960 bits, padding is always between 1 to 512.
Original Message Padding 1-512+
Original Message Padding Padding 1-512
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Step 2. Appending Length - now calculate the original length of message and add it to the end of the message, after padding.Exp.: let original message is 1000 bits and we add padding of 472 bits to make the length of message 64 bits less than 1536 , here the length is consider as 1000 not 1472 bits.
Original Message Padding Padding 1-512 +Length
Original Message Padding Padding 1-512 Length
- the length is expressed as a 64 bit value and these 64 bits are appending to the end of original message + padding
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Step 3: Divide the Input Now divide the input message into block, each of the length 512 bits.
Data to be hashed
Block 1 Block 2 Block 3 Block n
512 bits 512 bits 512 bits 512 bits
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Step 4: Initialize chaining variable- Now , five chaining variables A to E are initialized , each of 32 bits number.- in SHA we want to produce a message digest of length 160 bits , for that we
have five chaining variables(5 X 32= 160 bits.)
Step 5: Copy the chaining variables.- now copy the chaining variable A-E into variable a-e.- The combination of a-e treated as single register for storing the temporary
intermediate as well as final result.

Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Step 6: Divide a block-now divide the current block 512 bits into 16 sub blocks , each of 32 bits.
Step 7: Round and Iterations- SHA consists of four rounds , each round containing 20 iteration- This make it total of 80 iterations- Mathematical representation is:abcde= (e + Process P + S^5 (a) +W [t] + K[t]) ,a , S^30 (b) ,c,dWhere,abcde= The registersProcess P = The logical operationS ^t = Circular –left shift of the 32 bit sub block by t bitsW[t] = A 32 bit derived from the current 32 bit sub blockK[t] = one of the five additive constant

Secure Hashes Algorithm
• One-Way– Given f(x), hard to find x.
• Collision-Free– Hard to find x and y so that f(x)=f(y)
• Hard to bias output– Hard to generate a set {xi} so that we can
differentiate between f({xi}) and f(U) where U is a uniformly distributed input.
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar

Intrusion Detection Techniques
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
IntrudersIntruders: Intruder is a person whose objetive is to gain
access to system or to increase the range of privilege accessible
on a system either via network or localClasses of intruders:
• Masquerader : An individual who is not authorized to use the computer (outsider)
• Misfeasor : A legitimate user who accesses unauthorized data, programs, or resources (insider)
• Clandestine user : An individual who grab supervisory control of the system and uses this control to avoid auditing and access controls or to suppress audit collection (either)
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Intrusion Techniques
Aim to gain access and/or increase privileges on a system
Basic attack methodology – target acquisition and information gathering – initial access – enlarge the privilege, – covering tracks
Key goal often is to acquire passwordsSo then exercise access rights of owner
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Intrusion Detection System
Need also to detect intrusions so can
– block if detected quickly– act as deterrent(prevention)– collect info to improve security
Assume intruder will behave differently to a legitimate user
– but will have imperfect distinction between
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Approaches to Intrusion Detection
Statistical anomaly detection– threshold– profile based
Rule-based detection– anomaly– penetration identification
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Audit Records
It is a fundamental tool for intrusion detectionnative audit records
– part of all common multi-user O/S– already present for use– may not have info wanted in desired form
detection-specific audit records– created specifically to collect wanted info– at cost of additional overhead on system
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Statistical Anomaly Detection
Threshold detection– count occurrences of specific event over time– if exceed reasonable value assume intrusion– alone is a crude & ineffective detector
Profile based– characterize past behavior of users– detect significant deviations from this– profile usually multi-parameter
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Rule-Based Intrusion Detection
Observe events on system & apply rules to decide if activity is suspicious or not
Rule-based anomaly detection– analyze historical audit records to identify usage
patterns & auto-generate rules for them– then observe current behavior & match against rules
to see if conforms– like statistical anomaly detection does not require
prior knowledge of security flaws
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Rule-Based Intrusion DetectionRule-based penetration identification
– uses expert systems technology– with rules identifying known penetration, weakness
patterns, or suspicious behavior– compare audit records or states against rules– rules usually machine & O/S specific– rules are generated by experts who interview & codify
knowledge of security admins– quality depends on how well this is done
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Distributed Intrusion DetectionTraditional focus is on single systemsbut typically have networked systemsMore effective defense has these working together to detect intrusionsissues
– dealing with varying audit record formats– integrity & confidentiality of networked data– centralized or decentralized architecture

Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
• Computer “Viruses” and related programs have the ability to replicate themselves on an ever increasing number of computers. They originally spread by people sharing floppy disks. Now they spread primarily over the Internet (a “Worm”).
Viruses and Malicious Programs
Other “Malicious Programs” may be installed by hand on a single machine. they may also be built into widely distributed commercial software packages. these are very hard to detect before the payload activates
(Trojan Horses, Trap Doors, and Logic Bombs).
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Taxanomy of Malicious Programs
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Definitions• Virus - code that copies itself into other programs.• A “Bacteria” replicates until it fills all disk space, or CPU cycles.• Payload - harmful things the malicious program does, after it has had
time to spread. • Worm - a program that replicates itself across the network (usually
riding on email messages or attached documents (e.g., macro viruses). • Trojan Horse - instructions in an otherwise good program that cause
bad things to happen (sending your data or password to an attacker over the net).
• Logic Bomb - malicious code that activates on an event (e.g., date). • Trap Door (or Back Door) - undocumented entry point written into code
for debugging that can allow unwanted users. • Easter Egg - extraneous code that does something “cool.” A way for
programmers to show that they control the product.
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Virus Phases
• Dormant phase - the virus is idle• Propagation phase - the virus places an identical copy of
itself into other programs• Triggering phase – the virus is activated to perform the
function for which it was intended• Execution phase – the function is performed
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
A Compression Virus 1.Program P1 is infected
with virus CVWhen this program invoke ,control passes to its virus.
2. Virus first compresses uninfected file P2 to P2’, which is
shorter than original size.
3. Copy of virus is prepended to compressed program..
4. The compress version of infected program P1’
is uncompressed..
5. The uncompressed original program is executed
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Types of Viruses• Parasitic Virus - attaches itself to executable files as part of their code.
Runs whenever the host program runs.
• Memory-resident Virus - Lodges in main memory as part of the residual operating system.
• Boot Sector Virus - infects the boot sector of a disk, and spreads when the operating system boots up (original DOS viruses).
• Stealth Virus - explicitly designed to hide from Virus Scanning programs.
• Polymorphic Virus - mutates with every new host to prevent signature detection.
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Antivirus Approaches• 1st Generation, Scanners: searched files for any of a library
of known virus “signatures.” Checked executable files for length changes.
• 2nd Generation, Heuristic Scanners: looks for more general signs than specific signatures (code segments common to many viruses). Checked files for checksum or hash changes.
• 3rd Generation, Activity Traps: stay resident in memory and look for certain patterns of software behavior (e.g., scanning files).
• 4th Generation, Full Featured: combine the best of the techniques above.
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar

Authentication
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Password based authentication
• Setup– User chooses password– Hash of password stored in password file
• Authentication– User logs into system, supplies password– System computes hash, compares to file
• Attacks– Online dictionary attack
• Guess passwords and try to log in– Offline dictionary attack
• Steal password file, try to find p with hash(p) in file
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Dictionary Attack – some numbers
• Typical password dictionary – 1,000,000 entries of common passwords
• people's names, common pet names, and ordinary words. – Suppose you generate and analyze 10 guesses per second– Dictionary attack in at most 1,00,000 seconds = 28 hours,
or 14 hours on average• If passwords were random
– Assume six-character password • Upper- and lowercase letters, digits, 32 punctuation characters• 689,869,781,056 password combinations.• Exhaustive search requires 1,093 years on average

RFC 822Mail Format
• A message consists of some number of header line
( the header) followed by unrestricted text (the body).• A blank line is used for separation. • Lines no longer than 1000 char• Message body - plain US-ASCII text• Message header lines - plain US-ASCII text• Limit on message length

MIME• MIME refers to an official Internet standard that specifies
how messages must be formatted so that they can be exchanged between different email systems.
• MIME permits the inclusion of virtually any type of file or document in an email message.
• Specifically, MIME messages can contain – text– images– audio– video– application-specific data.
• spreadsheets • word processing documets
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
MIME Features
• Support of character sets other than ASCII• Support of non-text content in e-mail messages• Support for compound documents
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
MIME Example From: John Doe <[email protected]> To: [email protected]: Hello WordMIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/mixed;boundary="XXXXboundary text" This is a multipart message in MIME format. --XXXXboundary text Content-Type: text/plain this is the body text --XXXXboundary text Content-Type: text/plain;Content-Disposition: attachment;filename="test.txt" this is the attachment text --XXXXboundary text--
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
• The "MIME-Version:" header tells the receiving UA to treat this as a MIME message.
• The"Content-Type: “header specifies "multipart/mixed".
• The message has parts separated by the string argument defined in "boundary="
• The "Content-Type:" header identifies it as "text/plain", meaning US-ASCII characters are used exclusively and any UA should be able to display this body part.
• The "Content-Disposition: attachment" header has a parameter, "filename=", which specifies a suggested name for the file.
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
• SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) is the procedure by which email data packets are transferred from one networked machine to another.
• SMTP defines the message format and the message transfer agent (MTA), which stores and forwards the mail.
• SMTP is a relatively simple, text-based protocol, where one or more recipients of a message are specified and then the message text is transferred.
SMTP: Introduction
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
• Transfer email between mail servers reliably and efficiently .
• In order to send email, the client sends the message to an outgoing mail server, which in turn contacts the destination mail server for delivery.
• For this reason, it is necessary to specify an SMTP server when configuring an email client.
Purpose
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
• SMTP uses persistent connections
• SMTP uses TCP port 25.
• SMTP requires message (header & body) to be in 7 -bit ASCII
• SMTP server uses CRLF.CRLF to determine end of message
• Unsecured against spam.
Features
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
• Mail client is configured with the name of a local mail gateway (SMTP server)
• Mail client does not have to know how to deliver mail to everywhere
Sending E-mail using SMTP
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Scenario: Alice sends message to Bob 1)Alice uses UA to compose message and “to”
2)Alice’s UA sends message to her mail server; message placed in message queue
3)Client side of SMTP opens TCP connection with Bob’s mail server
Work Flow
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
4)SMTP client sends Alice’s message over the TCP connection
5)Bob’s mail server places the message in Bob’s mailbox
6)Bob invokes his user agent to read message

PGP Working
PGP offers 5 services:• Authentication• Confidentiality• Compression• E-mail compatibility• Segmentation
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
PGP Authentication
This is a digital signature scheme with hashing. 1. Alice has (private/public) key pair (Ad/Ae) and she wants to send a
digitally signed message m to Bob. 2. Alice hashes the message using SHA-1 to obtain SHA(m).
2. Now the original message m is compressed to obtainM=ZIP(m)
3. Alice generates a session key k and encrypts the compressed message and the signature using the session key C=sk.encryptk(M,c)
4. The session key is encrypted using Bob’s public key as before.
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
3. Alice encrypts the hash using her private key Ad to obtain ciphertext c given by
c=pk.encryptAd(SHA(m))
4. Alice sends Bob the pair (m,c)
5. Bob receives (m,c) and decrypts c using Alice's public key Ae to obtain signature s
s=pk.decryptAe(c)
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
6. He computes the hash of m using SHA-1 and if this hash value is equal to s then the message is authenticated.
Bob is sure that the message is correct and that is does come from Alice. Furthermore Alice cannot later deny sending the message since only Alice has access to her private key Ad which works in conjunction with the public key Ae.

PGP Confidentiality
1. Alice wishes to send Bob a confidential message m.2. Alice generates a random session key k for a symmetric
cryptosystem. 3. Alice encrypts k using Bob’s public key Be to get
k’ = pk.encryptBe(k)
4. Alice encrypts the message m with the session key k to get ciphertext c
c=sk.encryptk(m)
5. Alice sends Bob the values (k’,c)6. Bob receives the values (k’,c) and decrypts k’ using his private key
Bd to obtain kk=pk.decryptBd(k’)
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
7. Bob uses the session key k to decrypt the ciphertext c and recover the message m
m=sk.decryptk(c)
Public and symmetric key cryptosystems are combined in this way to provide security for key exchange and then efficiency for encryption. The session key k is used only to encrypt message m and is not stored for any length of time.
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
PGP Authentication and Confidentiality (at the same time)
The schemes for authentication and confidentiality can be combined so that Alice can sign a confidential message which is encrypted before transmission. The steps required are as follows:
1. Alice generates a signature c for her message m as in the Authentication scheme
c=pk.encryptAd(SHA(m))
2. Alice generates a random session key k and encrypts the message m and the signature c using a symmetric cryptosystem to obtain ciphertext C
C=sk.encryptk(m,c)4. She encrypts the session key k using Bob’s public key
k’ = pk.encryptBe(k)
5. Alice sends Bob the values (k’,C)
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
6. Bob recieves k’ and C and decrypts k’ using his private key Bd to obtain the session key k
k=pk.decryptBd(k’)
7. Bob decrypts the ciphertext C using the session key k to obtain m and c
(m,c) = sk.decryptk(C)
8. Bob now has the message m. In order to authenticate it he uses Alice’s public key Ae to decrypt the signature c and hashes the message m using SHA-1.
If SHA(m) = pk.decryptAe(c)Then the message is authenticated.

S/MIME is the de-facto industry standard for secure mail over the Internet. Secure MIME (S/MIME) was developed by an industry consortium, and is now appearing in a number of major products.
MIME is an extencion to the RFC 822 addressing many limitations of the use of SMPT.
MIME specification includes– new message headers– a number of content formats supproting multimedia
electronic mail– transfer encodings
S/MIME
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
S/MIME Functionality (messages)
The general functionality of S/MIME is very similar to PGP buth offering the ability to sign and/or encrypt messages.
S/MIME FunctionsThe S/MIME functions are implemented as new MIME content types.
Enveloped data– This consists of encrypted content of any type and encrypted
content encryption keys for one or more receipients.– An enveloped data entity is prepared as follows: 1) Generate the
pseudo random session key. 2) Encrypt the session key with each recipients public RSA key. 3) For each recipient prepare a RecipientInfo block containing senders public key certifcate, an identifier of the encryption algorithm and the encrypted session key. 4) Encrypt the message content with the session key.
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
S/MIME Functionality
Signed dataA digital signature is formed by taking the message digest of the content to be
signed and encrypting that with the private key of the signer. 1) Compute the message digest with SHA or MD5. 2) Encrypt the message digest with senders private key3) prepare SignerInfo block containing singer’s public key certificate, an identifier of
the message digest algorithm, and identifier of the encryption algorithm and the encrypted message digest.
A signed data message can only be read by a recipient having S/MIME capabilities
Clear signed data Same as previous but now the message contents are readable without S/MIME,
which is needed if the recipient wishes to verify the identity if the sender.Signed and enveloped data Signed-only and encrypted-only messages can be nested in both orderings.
Mr. Gopal Sakarkar
Registration requestAn application or a user typically applies to a CA for a public-key certificate.
This content format is used to transfer such request.
Certificates-only message This is a message containing only certificates or a certificate revocation list.
It is sent as a response to registration request
