  Diffie-Hellman key exchange - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
The scheme was first published publicly by Whitfield Diffie and Martin Hellman in 1976, although it later emerged that it had been discovered a few years earlier within GCHQ, the British signals intelligence agency, by Malcolm J. Williamson but was kept classified.
In 2002, Hellman suggested the algorithm be called Diffie-Hellman-Merkle key exchange in recognition of Ralph Merkle's contribution to the invention of public-key cryptography (Hellman, 2002).
Diffie-Hellman key agreement was invented in 1976 during a collaboration between Whitfield Diffie and Martin Hellman and was the first practical method for establishing a shared secret over an unprotected communications channel.

 Universities should restore spiritual side, says Professor Martin Hellman
Responding to a question regarding the difference between knowledge and wisdom, Hellman said that "with the reformation, the renaissance and the birth of science, people have reacted to the human elements of experience as tainted, because they were.
Drawing an analogy with physics, Hellman said that classical logic has been carried to its extreme, and it is time for a new paradigm.
Hellman was born in 1945, a Jewish boy in an Irish Catholic neighborhood in the Bronx.

 Hellman: Authentication at every access point   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
In this two-part feature, Diffie and Hellman discuss the threats that concern them most and where they think the technology they helped advance is headed.
Part 1: Hellman, now professor emeritus of electrical engineering at Stanford University, explains why phishing is one of the biggest threats we face, why strong authentication is needed at every access point and why security add-ons won't do much to ease the threats of cyberspace.
Hellman: Certain threats have been dealt with because of the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL), which has largely secured things like credit card transactions over the Web.

 Public Key Cryptography (PKC), RSA, PKI
The first researchers to discover and publish the concepts of PKC were Whitfield Diffie and Martin Hellman from Stanford University, and Ralph Merkle from the University of California at Berkeley.
Diffie, Hellman, and Merkle later obtained patent number 4200770 on their method for secure public key exchange.
RSA's breakthrough was first publicized by Martin Gardner in August, 1977, in his widely read column Mathematical Games in the magazine Scientific American, and included an offer from RSA to mail a complete report on the PKC method to anyone that requested it.

 Diffie-Hellman key exchange - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Although Diffie-Hellman key agreement itself is an anonymous (non-authenticated) key agreement protocol, it provides the basis for a variety of authenticated protocols, and is used to provide perfect forward secrecy in TLS's ephemeral modes.
The simplest, and original, implementation of the protocol uses the multiplicative group of integers modulo p, where p is prime and g is primitive mod p.

 ICS 54: History of Public-Key Cryptography
The patent granted to Diffie and Hellman is the first of a group that emerged from scientists at Stanford University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology during the end of the 1970's.
Very few people were interested in the topic and Hellman even says that many of his colleagues felt that it was "born classified," like secrets about the atomic bomb, because it was so important to national security.
The lawyers for Stanford University, where Hellman was a professor and Diffie a graduate student, sidestepped this approach by patenting a circuit.

 Diffie-Hellman - Wikipedia
However it is vulnerable to the man in the middle attack in which the attacker is able to modify messages between Alice and Bob as well as read them.
Diffie-Hellman key exchange was invented in 1975 or 1976 during a collaboration between Whitfield Diffie, Martin Hellman and Ralph Merkle and was the first public proposal for establishing a shared secret over an unprotected communications channel.
It had been discovered by Malcolm Williamson of GCHQ in the UK some years previously, but GCHQ chose not make it public until 1997, by which time it had no influence on research.

 Science Fair Projects - Meet-in-the-middle attack
It was first developed as an attack on an attempted expansion of a block cipher by Merkle and Hellman in 1981.
When trying to improve the security of a block cipher, one might get the idea to simply use two independent keys to encrypt the data twice.
Merkle and Hellman, however, devised a time-memory tradeoff that could break the scheme in only double the time of the time to break the single-encryption scheme.

Through his work on the Bay Area's Community Memory project, his critical role in developing computer user groups, his development of the seminal portable microcomputer, the Osborne I, and of the Pennywhistle modem, Felsenstein has consistently shown himself to be an exemplar of the pioneer spirit on the electronic frontier.
Whitfield Diffie of Sun Microsystems and Martin Hellman of Stanford University are the persons chiefly responsible for public-key encryption.

 Knapsack Cryptosystems: The Past and the Future
However, Diffie and Hellman were unable to conceive an actual trapdoor one-way function even though they knew of its existence.
Several months after Rivest, Shamir, and Adleman [80] published the first public-key cryptosystem, the RSA cryptosystem, Merkle and Hellman [60] proposed their knapsack cryptosystem in 1978, in which they described a singly-iterated version and a multiply-iterated version.
After Merkle and Hellman published their cryptosystem, many people investigated it and laid the foundation of its eventual breaking.

Diffie, Whitfield; Hellman, Martin E. New directions in cryptography.
The 1976 publication of ``New Directions in Cryptography'', by Whitfield Diffie and Martin Hellman, was epochal in cryptographic history.
Many regard it as the beginning of public-key cryptography, analogous to a first shot in what has become an ongoing battle over privacy, civil liberties, and the meaning of sovereignty in cyberspace.

This agree is an unauthenticated protocol in the sense that an adversary who has control over the channel can use the man in the middle attack to agree upon two separate keys with the two users without the users being aware of this.
This was modi ed into an authenticated key agreement protocol by Matsumoto, Takashima and Imai in [14] Later, Law, Menezes, Qu, Solinas and Vanstone showed in [13] that some of the protocols of [14] are not secure and proposed a new protocol for authenticated key agreement.

 Wired 7.04: The Open Secret
The story of the invention of public key cryptography is a cypherpunk sacred text: In 1976, an iconoclastic young hacker named Whitfield Diffie hooked up with Stanford professor Martin Hellman, and together they devised what experts hailed as the most important development in crypto since the invention of polyalphabetic ciphers during the Renaissance.
In 1976, of course, Diffie and Hellman presented their findings in two papers, which were followed in 1977 by a famous paper about RSA publicized by Scientific American.
Cocks says that when Ellis read Diffie and Hellman's first paper, which outlined the public key idea but suggested no implementation, he said simply, "They're where I was in 1969." The Stanford team's second paper did suggest a means of implementation - identical to the Williamson solution.

“We were sitting on a revolution in cryptography,” Hellman, now emeritus, recalls.
Waymouth may. One scientist’s commercial failure and another’s potential success show how amazing discoveries may pay something or nothing for reasons unrelated to the quality ­ or import ­ of the actual invention.
Encryption existed but was of little commercial use before Hellman and three Stanford colleagues began their work in the field in the 1970s.
