A system for establishing a shared key in a computing-resource-asymmetric field. The system includes: a first communicating unit configured to transmit an interaction request and interaction information of a first user to a second user, and receive interaction information from the second user; a first random number generator configured to generate a random number; a first memory configured to store private key information and public key information of the first user and the interaction information; a first processor configured to complete a computing demand of the first user; a second communicating unit configured to receive the interaction request and the interaction information from the first user, and transmit the interaction information to the first user; a second random number generator configured to generate a random number; a second memory configured to store private key information of the second user and the interaction information; and a second processor.

System and method for establishing share key in computing-resource-asymmetric field

An asymmetric-computing type shared key establishing method suitable for cloud computing and IoT has the following advantages. The realization efficiency and the security level are high, and a cryptographic algorithm coprocessor is not needed. The method can be applied to occasions in which the computing capabilities are asymmetric, and attacks from quantum computers can be resisted. Compared with a conventional key exchange protocol such as the Diffie-Hellman key exchange protocol, the method can be more effective between servers and mobile equipment in the security fields as the IoT and cloud computing, and the method can be used in both the electronic environment and the quantum environment. Thus, the asymmetric-computing type shared key establishing method suitable for cloud computing and IoT provided by the invention can be widely applied to the field of information security systems such as network security and e-commerce.
