    Abstract: In one example an apparatus comprises accelerator logic to pre-compute at least a portion of a message representative, hash logic to generate the message representative based on an input message, and signature logic to generate a signature to be transmitted in association with the message representative, the signature logic to apply a hash-based signature scheme to a private key to generate the signature comprising a public key, and determine whether the message representative satisfies a target threshold allocation of computational costs between a cost to generate the signature and a cost to verify the signature. Other examples may be described.

    Abstract: In one example an apparatus comprises a computer readable memory to store a public key associated with a signing device, communication logic to receive, from the signing device, a signature chunk which is a component of a signature generated by a hash-based signature algorithm, and at least a first intermediate node value associated with the signature chunk, verification logic to execute a first hash chain beginning with the signature chunk to produce at least a first computed intermediate node value, execute a second hash chain beginning with the at least one intermediate node value associated with the signature chunk to produce a first computed final node value, and use the first computed intermediate node value and the first computed final computed node value to validate the signature generated by the hash-based signature algorithm. Other examples may be described.

    Abstract: In one example an apparatus comprises a computer readable memory; and a signature module to generate a set of cryptographic keys for attestation of group member devices and a set of leaf nodes in a sub-tree of a Merkle tree corresponding to the set of cryptographic keys, forward the set of leaf nodes to a group manager device, receive, from the group manager device, a subset of intermediate nodes in the Merkle tree, the intermediate nodes being common to all available authentications paths through the Merkel tree for signatures originating in the sub-tree, and determine a cryptographic key that defines an authentication path through the Merkle tree, the authentication path comprising one or more nodes from the set of leaf nodes and one or more nodes from the intermediate nodes received from the group manager device. Other examples may be described.
