Abstract

Braid groups were first introduced by Emil Artin in 1925. First cryptosystem, using Braid groups as a platform was discovered by Anshel et al in 2001. After the publication of this paper several cryptosystems on Braid groups had been designed. In this paper we have proposed a tripartite authenticated key agreement protocol using conjugacy problem which works in a braid group. We have proved that our protocol meet the security attributes under the assumption that the Conjugacy Search Problem (CSP) is hard in braid group.
