A fast and portable C++14 library for Oblivious Transfer extension (OTe). The primary design goal of this library to obtain high performance while being easy to use. This library currently implements:
- The semi-honest 1-out-of-2 OT [IKNP03].
- The semi-honest 1-out-of-2 Silent OT [BCGIKRS19].
- The semi-honest 1-out-of-2 Delta-OT [IKNP03],[BLNNOOSS15].
- The semi-honest 1-out-of-N OT [KKRT16].
- The malicious secure 1-out-of-2 OT [KOS15].
- The malicious secure 1-out-of-2 Delta-OT [KOS15],[BLNNOOSS15].
- The malicious secure 1-out-of-N OT [OOS16].
- The malicious secure approximate K-out-of-N OT [RR16].
- The malicious secure 1-out-of-2 base OT [NP01].
- The malicious secure 1-out-of-2 base OT [CO15] (Faster Linux ASM version disabled by default).
- The malicious secure 1-out-of-2 base OT [MR19]
This library provides several different classes of OT protocols. First is the base OT protocol of Naor Pinkas [NP01]. This protocol bootstraps all the other OT extension protocols. Within the OT extension protocols, we have 1-out-of-2, 1-out-of-N and K-out-of-N, both in the semi-honest and malicious settings.
All implementations are highly optimized using fast SSE instructions and vectorization to obtain optimal performance both in the single and multi-threaded setting. See the Performance section for a comparison between protocols and to other libraries.
Networking can be performed using both the sockets provided by the library and external socket classes. See the networking tutorial for an example.
A minimal working example showing how to perform n
OTs using the IKNP protocol.
void minimal()
{
// Setup networking. See cryptoTools\frontend_cryptoTools\Tutorials\Network.cpp
IOService ios;
Channel senderChl = Session(ios, "localhost:1212", SessionMode::Server).addChannel();
Channel recverChl = Session(ios, "localhost:1212", SessionMode::Client).addChannel();
// The number of OTs.
int n = 100;
// The code to be run by the OT receiver.
auto recverThread = std::thread([&]() {
PRNG prng(sysRandomSeed());
IknpOtExtReceiver recver;
// Choose which messages should be received.
BitVector choices(n);
choices[0] = 1;
//...
// Receive the messages
std::vector<block> messages(n);
recver.receiveChosen(choices, messages, prng, recverChl);
// messages[i] = sendMessages[i][choices[i]];
});
PRNG prng(sysRandomSeed());
IknpOtExtSender sender;
// Choose which messages should be sent.
std::vector<std::array<block, 2>> sendMessages(n);
sendMessages[0] = { toBlock(54), toBlock(33) };
//...
// Send the messages.
sender.sendChosen(sendMessages, prng, senderChl);
recverThread.join();
}
The running time in seconds for computing n=224 OTs on a single Intel
Xeon server (2 36-cores Intel Xeon CPU E5-2699 v3 @ 2.30GHz and 256GB of RAM
)
as of 11/16/2016. All timings shown reflect a "single" thread per party, with the
expection that network IO in libOTe is performed in the background by a separate thread.

The library is cross platform and has been tested on Windows, Mac and Linux. There is one mandatory dependency on Boost 1.69 (networking), and three optional dependencies on, Miracl, Relic or SimplestOT (Unix only) for Base OTs. Any or all of these dependenies can be enabled. See below.
In Powershell
, this will set up the project
git clone --recursive https://github.com/osu-crypto/libOTe.git
cd libOTe/cryptoTools/thirdparty/win
getBoost.ps1
cd ../../..
libOTe.sln
Not all protocols will be built by default. Which protocol are built is controlled by the libOTe/config.h
file. Manually edit this file to enable the desired protocol.
To see all the command line options, execute the program frontend.exe
.
Boost and visual studio 2017: If boost does not build with visual studio 2017 follow these instructions.
Enabling Relic (for base OTs):
- Build the library in the folder next libOTe (i.e. share the same parent directory):
git clone https://github.com/ladnir/relic.git
cd relic
cmake . -DMULTI=OPENMP -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH=C:\libs -DCMAKE_GENERATOR_PLATFORM=x64 -DRUNTIME=MT
cmake --build .
cmake --install .
- Edit the config file libOTe/cryptoTools/cryptoTools/Common/config.h to include
#define ENABLE_RELIC ON
.
In short, this will build the project
git clone --recursive https://github.com/osu-crypto/libOTe.git
cd libOTe/cryptoTools/thirdparty/linux
bash boost.get
cd ../../..
cmake . -DENABLE_XXX=ON
make
where ENABLE_XXX
should be replaced by ENABLE_IKNP, ENABLE_KOS, ...
depending on which protocol(s) should be enabled. See the output of cmake .
for a complete list. You will also need to enable one one of the base OT protocols (see below). The libraries will be placed in libOTe/lib
and the binary frontend_libOTe
will be placed in
libOTe/bin
To see all the command line options, execute the program
./bin/frontend_libOTe
Enable Base OTs using:
cmake . -DENABLE_RELIC=ON
: Build the library with integration to the Relic library. Requires that relic is built withcmake . -DMULTI=PTHREAD
and installed.- Linux Only:
cmake . -DENABLE_SIMPLESTOT_ASM=ON
: Build the library with integration to the SimplestOT library implementing a base OT.
Other Options: Several other compile time options exists. See the output of cmake .
for a complete list.
Note: In the case boost is already installed, the steps
cd libOTe/cryptoTools/thirdparty/linux; bash boost.get
can be skipped and CMake will attempt
to find them instead. Boost is found with the CMake findBoost package and miracl
is found with the find_library(miracl)
command. If there is a version mismatch then you will still need to run the provided boost build script.
You can either make install
on linux or link libOTe's source tree. In the latter
case, you will need to include the following:
- .../libOTe
- .../libOTe/cryptoTools
- .../libOTe/cryptoTools/thirdparty/linux/boost
- .../libOTe/cryptoTools/thirdparty/linux/miracl/miracl (if enabled)
- [Relic includes] (if enabled)
and link:
- .../libOTe/bin/liblibOTe.a
- .../libOTe/bin/libcryptoTools.a
- .../libOTe/bin/libSimplestOT.a (if enabled)
- .../libOTe/bin/libKyberOT.a (if enabled)
- .../libOTe/cryptoTools/thirdparty/linux/boost/stage/lib/libboost_system.a
- .../libOTe/cryptoTools/thirdparty/linux/boost/stage/lib/libboost_thread.a
- .../libOTe/cryptoTools/thirdparty/linux/miracl/miracl/source/libmiracl.a (if enabled)
- [Relic binary] (if enabled)
Note: On windows the linking paths follow a similar pattern.
