| Abstract | A communication channel from an honest sender A to an honest receiver B can be described as a system with three interfaces labeled A, B, and E (the adversary), respectively, where the security properties of the channel are characterized by the capabilities provided at the E-interface. A security mechanism, such as encryption or a message authentication code (MAC), can be seen as the transformation of a certain type of channel into a stronger type of channel, where the term "transformation" refers to a natural simulation-based definition. For example, the main purpose of a MAC can be regarded as transforming an insecure into an authenticated channel, and encryption then corresponds to transforming an authenticated into a fully secure channel; this is the well-known Encrypt-then-Authenticate (EtA) paradigm. In the dual paradigm, Authenticate-then-Encrypt (AtE), encryption first transforms an insecure into a confidential channel, and a MAC transforms this into a secure channel. As pointed out by Bellare and Namprempre, and Krawczyk, there are encryption schemes for which AtE does not achieve the expected guarantees. We highlight two reasons for investigating nevertheless AtE as a general paradigm: First, this calls for a definition of confidentiality; what separates a confidential from a secure channel is its (potential) malleability. We propose the first systematic analysis of malleability for symmetric encryption, which, in particular, allows us to state a generic condition on encryption schemes to be sufficient for AtE. Second, AtE is used in practice, for example in TLS. We show that the schemes used in TLS (stream ciphers and CBC encryption) satisfy the condition. This is consistent with Krawczyk's results on similar instantiations of AtE in game-based models. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
