Universal security; from bits and mips to pools, lakes -- and beyond

Arjen K. Lenstra, Thorsten Kleinjung, Emmanuel Thomé

Abstract

The relation between cryptographic key lengths and security depends on the cryptosystem used. This leads to confusion and to insecure parameter choices. In this note a universal security measure is proposed that puts all cryptographic primitives on the same footing, thereby making it easier to get comparable security across the board.
