We investigate the distinguishability of orthogonal multipartite entangled states in d-qudit system by restricted local operations and classical communication. According to these properties, we propose a standard (2, n)-threshold quantum secret sharing scheme (called LOCC-QSS scheme), which solves the open question in [Rahaman et al., Phys. Rev. A, 91, 022330 (2015)]. On the other hand, we find that all the existing (k, n)-threshold LOCC-QSS schemes are imperfect (or “ramp”), i.e., unauthorized groups can obtain some information about the shared secret. Furthermore, we present a (3, 4)-threshold LOCC-QSS scheme which is close to perfect.
The attack of SQL injection is a well-known threat to web applications, which leads to great damages of confidentiality and integrity of information in databases. Therefore, it is essential for each web applications to detect SQL injection vulnerabilities and eliminate the hidden danger. In this paper, an approach based on penetration testing named YUKIER is proposed to achieve higher effectiveness and preciseness on identifying security vulnerabilities. We compare YUKIER with SQLiX and Paros Proxy, and the experiment results demonstrate that our proposed approach has the higher performances with respect to the existing circumstance.
The partial states of a multipartite quantum state may carry a lot of information: in some cases, they determine the global state uniquely. This result is known for tomographic information, that is for fully characterized measurements. We extend it to the device-independent framework by exhibiting sets of two-party correlations that self-test pure three-qubit states.
Certificateless public key cryptography eliminates inherent key escrow problem in identity-based cryptography, and does not yet requires certificates as in the traditional public key infrastructure. Recently, Yu et al. propose a new certificateless signature scheme and their scheme offers shorter system parameters and higher computational efficiency than the previous schemes in the standard model. However, in this paper, we show Yu et al.'s certificateless signature scheme is vulnerable to malicious-but-passive KGC attack where a malicious KGC can forge valid signatures by embedding extra trapdoors in the system parameter.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
