On the efficiency of a general attack against the MOBS cryptosystem

All instances of the semidirect key exchange protocol, a generalisation of the famous Diffie-Hellman key exchange protocol, satisfy the so-called telescoping equality; in some cases, this equality has been used to construct an attack. In this report, we present computational evidence suggesting that...
