Abstract

The quantum computing being a threat motivates us to design a post quantum secure authentication protocol for mobile digital rights management system. In current, a post quantum secure protocol “learning with error based secure mobile digital rights management system” has been proposed. The protocol has been claimed to post quantum secure under the ring learning with errors assumption. We have analyzed that this protocol allows the server to keep a fixed private/public key that causes less communication and computation overheads. But, this leads to signal leakage/modified signal leakage attacks. In this paper, we have discussed signal leakage attacks during the authentication phase of the existing protocol. We have proposed a new post quantum authenticated key agreement protocol for the digital rights management system. In the proposed protocol, the server uses a random value instead of using fixed value chosen by the user, and it establishes a session key with the user. Moreover, this protocol needs to exchange just two messages that confirm the efficiency. The protocol has been proved secure in a random oracle model under ring learning with errors assumption. Moreover, the article contains an informal security discussion and a simulation using NS3 simulator.
