Available benchmarks

There are 3 tests available:

1. KEM test - performance of a CRYSTALS-Kyber example
   • usage: ./01_test_KEM
2. OPRF test - performance of an OPRF procedure example
   • usage: ./02_test_OPRF
3. PQ-BRAKE test - performance of the PQ-BRAKE protocol, enrolling a fingerprint and queries another; if successful, a shared secret is established
   • usage: (sudo) ./03_test_PQBRAKE path_to_reference_fingerprint.pgm path_to_query_fingerprint.pgm
   • root privileges are needed in order to write the full performance numbers to the logfile, program can be run as a normal user but no logs will be made and only a shortened version of the performance numbers will be printed to console
   • Hint: if the fingerprint images used for testing are in a non-.pgm format, a simple way to convert them is to use the imagemagick package in Linux: magick mogrify -format pgm <fingerprint_image.bmp>

Installation

Note

• The PQ-BRAKE test will only work correctly on systems that include the AVX2 instruction set.

How to

To install the program:

1. Clone the repository
2. Run the installation script script as root (see requirements section below)
3. executables are created in the build/ folder (same with test logs) if the installation fails for any reason, a precompiled version of the test executables is provided in the precompiled folder

Requirements (tested on Ubuntu-based Linux distro):

• libssl-dev
• cmake
• astyle
• gcc
• ninja-build
• unzip
• xsltproc
• valgrind
• libgmp-dev (GNU mp Bignum)
• m4
