Explain the statistical security parameter #10

Closed luisbran closed 4 years ago

luisbran commented 5 years ago

Proposed contribution: Discuss various examples of acceptable values of statistical security parameter, e.g., 40 bits. Explore how interactive to non-interactive transformations may affect the requirements on the statistical security parameter, e.g., making it become a computational parameter when applying Fiat-Shamir.

Related locations: Sections 1.2, 1.4.3 and 2.5

Proposed contributors: Luís B.

Contribution context: proposed in the "NIST comments on the initial ZKProof documentation" (April 06, 2019) --- item C19. Also discussed in the breakout session on "Interactive Zero Knowledge".
