Abstract

We propose a new protocol, nicknamed TinyTable, for maliciously secure 2-party computation in the preprocessing model. One version of the protocol is useful in practice and allows, for instance, secure AES encryption with latency about 1ms and amortized time about 0.5 $\mu$s per AES block on a fast cloud set-up. Another version is interesting from a theoretical point of view: we achieve a maliciously and unconditionally secure 2-party protocol in the preprocessing model for computing a Boolean circuit, where both the communication complexity and preprocessed data size needed is $O(s)$ where $s$ is the circuit size, while the computational complexity is $$ where $$ is the statistical security parameter and $$ is a constant. For general circuits with no assumption on their structure, this is the best asymptotic performance achieved so far in this model.
