threshold-elgamal 0.0.11

Threshold ElGamal cryptosystem.

Threshold ElGamal cryptosystem

Library that provides functions for encryption, decrpytion and DKG algorithm using the ElGamal cryptosystem.

Installation

pip install threshold-elgamal

Getting started

The simplest way you can test out this library is by running its main function:

from threshold_elgamal import run_tc_scheme

res = run_tc_scheme(3, 5, m=10)
if res is True:
    print("Success!")

You can also create your own threshold scheme manually, and then encrypt and decrypt a message of your choosing:

from threshold_elgamal import create_tc_scheme

public_key, players, scheme = create_tc_scheme(3, 5)
c1, c2 = scheme.encrypt(public_key, message=10)
decryption_shares = {player.id: player.get_decryption_share(c1) for player in players}
decrypted_msg = scheme.decrypt(c2, decryption_shares)

if decrypted_msg == 10:
    print("Success!")
