A method and system for distributing n shares of a secret to n computing systems, and a method and system for reconstructing the secret from k shares of the secret. In one embodiment, the method for distributing the secret comprises representing the secret as a first polynomial over GF(2). The method further comprises creating the n shares from the secret, each of the n shares including a polynomial over GF(2). The secret can be reconstructed, in one embodiment, by solving coefficients of an interpolating polynomial using k points in the k shares using modulo 2 arithmetic. |
