Any one who knows the signer’s public key can verify the validity of a given signature in partially blind signature schemes. This verifying universality may be used by cheats if the signed message is sensitive or personal. To solve this problem, a new convertible user designating confirmer partially blind signature, in which only the designated confirmer (designated by the user) and the user can verify and confirm the validity of given signatures and convert given signatures into publicly verifiable ones, is proposed. Compared with Huang et al.’s scheme, the signature size is shortened about 25% and the computation quantity is reduced about 36% in the proposed scheme. Under random oracle model and intractability of Discrete Logarithm Problem the proposed scheme is provably secure.

Based an identity-based signature scheme, we givea certificateless signature scheme. And then we propose a certificateless blind signature (CLBS) scheme in this paper. This schemeis more efficient than those of previous schemes by pre-computing the pairing e (P, P)=g. Based on CL-PKC, it eliminates theusing of certificates in the signature scheme with respect to thetraditional public key cryptography (PKC) and solves key escrowproblems in ID-based signature schemes. Meanwhile it retains themerits of BS schemes. The proposed CLBS scheme is existentialunforgeable in the random oracle model under the intractabilityof the q-Strong Diffie-Hellman problem.

Digital signatures are crucial network security technologies. However, in traditional public key signature schemes, the certificate management is complicated and the schemes are vulnerable to public key replacement attacks. In order to solve the problems, in this paper, we propose a self-certified signature scheme over lattice. Using the self-certified public key, our scheme allows a user to certify the public key without an extra certificate. It can reduce the communication overhead and computational cost of the signature scheme. Moreover, the lattice helps prevent quantum computing attacks. Then, based on the small integer solution problem, our scheme is provable secure in the random oracle model. Furthermore, compared with the previous self-certified signature schemes, our scheme is more secure.

Abstract A tightly secure scheme has a reduction, where the reduction loss is a small constant. Identity-based signature (IBS) is an important cryptographic primitive, and tightly secure IBS schemes enjoy the advantage that the security parameter can be optimal to achieve a certain security level. General constructions of IBS schemes (Bellare, M., Namprempre, C., and Neven, G. (2004) Security Proofs for Identity-Based Identification and Signature Schemes. In Proc. EUROCRYPT 2004, May 2–6, pp. 268–286. Springer, Berlin, Interlaken, Switzerland; Galindo, D., Herranz, J., and Kiltz, E.

Springer, Berlin, Shanghai, China) and their security have been extensively studied. However, the security is not tight and how to generally construct a tightly secure IBS scheme remains unknown. In this paper, we concentrate on the general constructions of IBS schemes. We first take an insight into previous constructions and analyze the reason why it cannot achieve tight security. To further study possible tightly secure constructions, we propose another general construction, which could be seen as a different framework of IBS schemes. Our construction requires two traditional signature schemes, whereas the construction by Bellare et al. uses one scheme in a two-round iteration. There are no additional operations in our general construction. Its main advantage is providing the possibility of achieving tight security for IBS schemes in the random oracle model. Combining two known signature schemes, we present an efficient IBS scheme with tight security as an example.

Abstract In recent years, quite some progress has been made in understand- ing the security of encryption schemes in the presence of key-dependent plaintexts. Here, we motivate and explore the security of a setting, where an adversary against a signature scheme can access signatures on key-dependent messages. We propose a way to formalize the security of signature schemes in the pres- ence of key-dependent signatures (KDS). It turns out that the situation is quite different from key-dependent encryption: already to achieve KDS-security under non-adaptive chosen message attacks, the use of a stateful signing algorithm is inevitable-even in the random oracle model. After discussing the connection be- tween key-dependent signing and forward security, we present a compiler to lift any EUF-CMA secure one-time signature scheme to a forward secure signature scheme offering KDS-CMA security.

ABSTRACT Many cryptographic systems which involve hash functions have proof of their security in a so called random oracle model. Behavior of hash functions used in such cryptographic systems should be as close as possible to the behavior of a random function. There are several properties of hash functions dealing with a random behavior. A hash function is pseudo-random oracle if it is indifferentiable from a random oracle. However, it is well known that hash functions based on the popular Merkle-Damg˚ard domain extension transform do not satisfy the pseudo-random oracle property. On the other hand no attack is known for many concrete applications utilizing Merkle-Damg˚ard hash functions. Hence, a weakened notion called public-use pseudo random oracle was introduced. The property can be met by the Merkle-Damg˚ard construction and is sufficient for several important applications. A hash function is public use pseudo-random oracle if it is indifferentiable from a random oracle with public messages (i.e., all messages hashed so far are available to all parties). This is the case of most hash based signature schemes. In this paper we analyze relationship between the property pseudo-random oracle and its variant public image pseudo-random oracle. Roughly, a hash function is public image pseudo-random oracle if it is indifferentiable from a random oracle with public images (i.e., all images of messages hashed so far are available to all parties, messages are kept secret). We prove that the properties are equivalent.

Based on the newly introduced d-decisional Diffie-Hellman (d-DDH) intractable problem, a signature scheme and a multi-signature scheme are proposed. The main method in the constructions is a transformation of a knowledge proof on the equality of two discrete logarithms. The two schemes are proved secure in the random oracle model and the security reductions to the d-DDH problem are tight. Moreover, one can select different d for different security demand of applications. Thus the schemes are secure, efficient and practical.

It is well known that conventional digital signature algorithms such as RSA and ECDSA are vulnerable to quantum computing attacks. Hash-based signature schemes are attractive as post-quantum signature schemes in that it is possible to calculate the quantitative security level and the security is proven. SPHINCS is a stateless hash-based signature scheme and introduces HORST few-time signature scheme which is an improvement of HORS. However, HORST as well as HORS suffers from pretty large signature sizes. HORSIC is proposed to reduce the signature size, yet does not provide in-depth security analysis. In this paper, we propose HORSIC+, which is an improvement of HORSIC. HORSIC+ differs from HORSIC in that HORSIC+ does not apply f as a plain function to the signature key, but uses a member of a function family. In addition, HORSIC+ uses the chaining function similar to W-OTS+. These enable the strict security proof without the need for the used function family to be a permutation or collision resistant. HORSIC+ is existentially unforgeable under chosen message attacks, assuming a second-preimage resistant family of undetectable one-way functions and cryptographic hash functions in the random oracle model. HORSIC+ reduces the signature size by as much as 37.5% or 18.75% compared to HORS and by as much as 61.5% or 45.8% compared to HORST for the same security level.

Most of the existing ID-based designated verifier proxy signature schemes are implemented with pairings. The computation of parings is still much more expensive than the common modular multiplications and exponentiations. To obtain better efficiency, we construct an efficient ID-based DVPS scheme without pairings. The scheme is designed based on the hardness of the discrete logarithm problems. It is proven secure against adaptively chosen message attacks, in the random oracle model.

Although most existing linkable ring signature schemes on lattice can effectively resist quantum attacks, they still have the disadvantages of excessive time and storage overhead. This paper constructs an identity-based linkable ring signature (LRS) scheme over NTRU lattice by employing the technologies of trapdoor generation and rejection sampling. The security of this scheme relies on the small integer solution (SIS) problem on NTRU lattice. We prove that this scheme has unconditional anonymity, unforgeability, and linkability under the random oracle model (ROM). Through the performance analysis, this scheme has a shorter size of public/private keys, and when the number of ring members is small (such as N ≤ 8 ), this scheme has a shorter signature size compared with other existing latest lattice-based LRS schemes. The computational efficiency of signature has also been further improved since it only involves multiplication in the polynomial ring and modular operations of small integers. Finally, we implemented our scheme and other similar schemes, and it is shown that the time for the signature generation and verification of this scheme decreases roughly by 44.951% and 33.503%, respectively.
