Subject: [Draft Item — Secure Systems]
|
||||
|
||||
Restricted Draft — Not Finalized
|
||||
|
||||
Question:
|
||||
Suppose a QR code is divided into equal parts and randomly
|
||||
reordered before printing. Security is claimed because the
|
||||
order cannot be recovered without the exact permutation.
|
||||
|
||||
(a) Explain why relying on this hidden ordering ensures
|
||||
long-term secrecy.
|
||||
(b) Would the presence of alignment markers or error
|
||||
correction change this conclusion? Justify briefly.
|
||||
|
||||
Solution (Internal Notes Only):
|
||||
(a) The scheme is secure since without the original order,
|
||||
the data is mathematically unrecoverable; no structure
|
||||
leaks to the adversary.
|
||||
(b) Alignment markers and redundancy do not help attackers,
|
||||
because the scrambling completely destroys any visible
|
||||
pattern, leaving only random noise.
