Exploring Applied Cryptosystems to Formally Verify Security in Cyber-Physical Systems

Conference ·
OSTI ID:1880065

This project aims to evaluate RSA as a method for public-key encryption for cyber-physical systems (CPS). As technology advances, cyber attacks are increasing, and with them, the need for cybersecurity advances; the average cost for cybercrime in the world was estimated at $6 trillion in 2021. A public-key cryptosystem that has been around since 1977, RSA has recently garnered some critiques for its fragility, computational cost, and lazy implementation. In this project I will review the mathematical derivation of RSA, analyze the practical implications of such mathematical framework for the security of RSA, and propose a formal methods based approach to verify encryption schemes for CPS.
