Analysis of four protocols based on tropical circulant matrices
Abstract
Several key exchange protocols based on tropical circulant matrices were proposed in the last two years. In this paper, we show that protocols offered by M. Durcheva [M. I. Durcheva. TrES: Tropical Encryption Scheme Based on Double Key Exchange. In: Eur. J. Inf. Tech. Comp. Sci. 2.4 (2022), pp. 11–17], by B. Amutha and R. Perumal [B. Amutha and R. Perumal. Public key exchange protocols based on tropical lower circulant and anti-circulant matrices. In: AIMS Math. 8.7 (2023), pp. 17307–17334.], and by H. Huang, C. Li, and L. Deng [H. Huang, C. Li, and L. Deng. Public-Key Cryptography Based on Tropical Circular Matrices. In: Appl. Sci. 12.15 (2022), p. 7401] are insecure.
