Abstract

This paper addresses deterministic public-key encryption schemes (DE), which are designed to provide meaningful security when only source of randomness in the encryption process comes from the message itself. We propose a general construction of DE that unifies prior work and gives novel schemes. Specifically, its instantiations include: The security proofs for these schemes are enabled by three tools that are of broader interest: We also extend our result about computational entropy to the average case, which is useful in reasoning about leakage-resilient cryptography: leaking λ bits of information reduces the quality of computational entropy by a factor of 2 λ and its quantity by λ.
