Abstract
The paper addresses the issue of secure distribution of codebooks in the field of information security, particularly in the domain of covert communication. We propose a codebook distribution technique based on secret sharing. Secret sharing is a method of dividing and storing secrets that can withstand certain levels of external intrusion and internal deception. In this technique, the sender encrypts the codebook using a private key and uploads it to the IPNS. Each recipient can then obtain the public key for downloading the codebook through a mechanism based on password-protected secret sharing. Based on experimental results and security analysis, the scheme exhibits high time efficiency and stable memory usage. Furthermore, it can withstand various attacks, ensuring the security of codebook transmission.
