The Henchman Problem: Measuring Secrecy by the Minimum Distortion in a List

Curt Schieler, Paul Cuff

We introduce a new measure of information-theoretic secrecy based on rate-distortion theory and study it in the context of the Shannon cipher system. Whereas rate-distortion theory…

A Connection between Good Rate-distortion Codes and Backward DMCs

Curt Schieler, Paul Cuff

Let be a sequence drawn from a discrete memoryless source, and let be the corresponding reconstruction sequence that is output by a good…

Rate-Distortion Theory for Secrecy Systems

Curt Schieler, Paul Cuff

Secrecy in communication systems is measured herein by the distortion that an adversary incurs. The transmitter and receiver share secret key, which they use to encrypt communicati…

Source-Channel Secrecy with Causal Disclosure

Curt Schieler, Eva C. Song, Paul Cuff +1

Imperfect secrecy in communication systems is investigated. Instead of using equivocation as a measure of secrecy, the distortion that an eavesdropper incurs in producing an estima…

Secrecy Is Cheap if the Adversary Must Reconstruct

Curt Schieler, Paul Cuff

A secret key can be used to conceal information from an eavesdropper during communication, as in Shannon's cipher system. Most theoretical guarantees of secrecy require the secret…

Hybrid Codes Needed for Coordination over the Point-to-Point Channel

Paul Cuff, Curt Schieler

We consider a new fundamental question regarding the point-to-point memoryless channel. The source-channel separation theorem indicates that random codebook construction for lossy…
