Multivariate Public Key schemes can be used in the context of mobile agents for authentication and encryption of sensitive data. Goal of the project: implementation of a known algorithm in Java. Goal of the project: implementation of a known algorithm in Java. The purpose of this thesis is to contribute to a Java crypto- provider, i.e., to produce an open source implementation of such an algorithm. The purpose of this thesis is to contribute to a Java crypto- provider, i.e., to produce an open source implementation of such an algorithm. The finite-field routines - needed for this implementation - are already available. Hence, the students can concentrate on the cryptographic algorithms alone.

5 5 2. Software security through diversity Software on entrusted hosts has to be protected against attacks. Software on entrusted hosts has to be protected against attacks. A software agent, for example, travels from host to host. Therefore, it needs adequate protection. A software agent, for example, travels from host to host. Therefore, it needs adequate protection. To avoid a global, automated attack disabling the whole agent system, diversity is introduced. Hence, each agent implementations differs on an implementation level, while preserving its functionality.

Code transformations could be used to replicate agents, while a genetic algorithms could monitor their evolution.
