Formal Analysis of Information Flow Using Min-Entropy and Belief Min-Entropy
Abstract:Abstract. Information flow analysis plays a vital role in obtaining quantitative bounds on information leakage due to external attacks. Traditionally, information flow analysis is done using paper-and-pencil based proofs or computer simulations based on the Shannon entropy and mutual information. However, these metrics sometimes provide misleading information while dealing with some specific threat models, like when the secret is correctly guessed in one try. Min-Entropy and Belief Minentropy metrics have been… Show more
