Quantifying computational security subject to source constraints, guesswork and inscrutability

Guesswork forms the mathematical framework for quantifying computational security subject to brute-force determination by query. In this paper, we consider guesswork subject to a per-symbol Shannon entropy budget. We introduce inscrutability rate to quantify the asymptotic difficulty of guessing U o...
