Suppose that Sally (a server) needs access to a symmetric key for user Alice and another symmetric key for Bob and another symmetric key for Charlie. Then Sally could generate symmetric keys Ka±, KB, and Kc
and store these in a database. An alternative is key diversification, where Sally generates and stores a single key Ks- Then Sally generates the key KA
as needed by computing KA
= /i(Alice, Ks), with keys KB
and Kc
generated in a similar manner. Give one significant advantage and one significant disadvantage of key diversification as compared to storing keys in a database.
