A Variation on Secure Sketches Sample Clauses

A Variation on Secure Sketches. So far, we have presented the error-correcting information that Xxxxx sends to Bob in the first message as a secure sketch. Informally, secure sketches (defined in [DORS08], although implicitly used in many prior protocols, such as [BBR88, BBCS91, Mau93, Cr´e97, JW99, FJ01, MTZ03, CT04, JS06]) allow the recovery of w from a close string wj. For this work, we actually need a slight variant on secure sketches, one that provides some resilience even when the sketch is modified. The requires a different definition than the definition of [DORS08], though it turns out that known constructions need to be modified only slightly to satisfy it. Secure sketches, defined in [DORS08], provide two algorithms: “generate” (Gen) that takes an input w and produces a sketch P and “recover” (Rec) that outputs w from the sketch P and any wj sufficiently close to w. Their security guarantees that some entropy remains in w even given P . Secure sketches provide no guarantees when P has been tampered with, while we need to make sure that the output of Rec still has entropy. Thus, we need to add a weak form of robustness (i.e., resilience to active attack) to secure sketches. At the same time, we do not need a full recovery of the original w: we will be satisfied if both Gen and Rec produce some string R that preserves some of the entropy of w. In that way, our new primitive is like a fuzzy extractor, except we do not require that R be uniform, merely that it have entropy. In keeping with extractor literature terminology [CRVW02], we call the primitive a weakly robust fuzzy conductor because it conducts entropy from w to R and is robust against active attacks on P . Because we no longer recover the original w but rather reproduce the same R, we rename Rec into Rep. Let M be a metric space with distance function dis. Suppose (Gen, Rep) are two procedures, where Gen(w), for w ∈ M, outputs an extracted string R ∈ {0, 1}∗ and a helper string P ∈ {0, 1}∗ , and Rep(wj,Pj), for wj ∈ M,P j ∈ {0, 1}∗ , outputs Rj ∈ {0, 1}∗ .

  • CONDITION ON DELIVERY If a Vehicle accepted by an Authorized User is found to have been delivered with minor deviations or improper servicing, the Contractor must arrange to have the necessary work done within 48 hours (exclusive of Saturdays, Sundays and Federal or NYS Holidays) after receipt of written notification from the Authorized User and/or NYSPro. If Contractor cannot arrange to have the necessary work done within such time period, the corrections shall be made by an entity of the Authorized User’s choosing and Contractor will be required to reimburse the Authorized User for this expense within thirty (30) calendar days of request.
