Abstract

The Module Learning With Errors problem () has gained popularity in recent years for its security-efficiency balance,and its hardness has been established for a number of variants. In this paper, we focus on proving the hardness of (search) for general secret distributions, provided they carry sufficient min-entropy. This is called entropic hardness of. First, we adapt the line of proof of Brakerski and Döttling on (TCC’20) to prove that the existence of certain distributions implies the entropic hardness of. Then, we provide one such distribution whose required properties rely on the hardness of the decisional Module- NTRU problem.
