Abstract |
The increased internet usage after the pandemic led the UN Forum to improve cybersecurity measures, with zero-knowledge proofs (ZKP) being a viable solution for securing confidential information. ZKP protocols can be demonstrated through the binary puzzle, an NP-complete logic puzzle with four specific constraints. The key contribution of this paper is its successful implementation of the genetic algorithm as a new method to solve the binary puzzle. The optimized fitness function determined the solution at an average of 1.33-2.33 generations for populations ranging from 100 to 500. Its quadratic property calculated the solution faster than the ordinary linear fitness function. |
