How fast do you heal? A taxonomy for post-compromise security in secure-channel establishment

Résumé

Post-Compromise Security (PCS) is a property of secure channel establishment schemes, which limits the security breach of an adversary that has compromised one of the end point to a certain number of messages, after which the channel heals. An attractive property, especially in view of Snowden's revelation of mass-surveillance, PCS was pioneered by the Signal messaging protocol, and is present in OTR. In this paper, we introduce a framework for quantifying and comparing PCS security, with respect to a broad taxonomy of adversaries. The generality and flexibility of our approach allows us to model the healing speed of a broad class of protocols, including Signal, but also an identity-based messaging protocol named SAID, and even a composition of 5G handover protocols.
