A note on conjugacy search and racks

We show that for every effective left conjugacy closed left quasigroup, there is an induced rack that retains the conjugation structure of the left translations. This means that cryptographic protocols relying on conjugacy search can be secure only if conjugacy search of left translations is infeasible in the induced rack. We note that, in fact, protocols based on conjugacy search could be simply implemented using a rack. We give an exposition of the Anshel-Anshel-Goldfeld protocol in such a case.
