Fuzzy identity-based encryption (FIBE) scheme is a kind of identity-based encryption (IBE) scheme, in which any user's identity is composed by a set of attributes and any ciphertext encrypted under identity ID can be decrypted by using a private key corresponding to identity ID′ if ID′ is close to ID as measured by some metric. Due to the error-tolerance property, FIBE scheme is very useful in real-world applications. However, most FIBE schemes are provable secure only in a weaker security model. In order to eliminate this problem, Ren et al. recently proposed a new FIBE scheme and proved that it is fully chosen-ciphertext secure in the standard model. Unfortunately, in this paper, we will show that their FIBE scheme is even not chosen-plaintext secure.

Fuzzy Techniques

Using a biometric as an identity has the advantage that identities are unique if the underlying biometric is of a good quality, such as fingerprints, faces, irises. Since biometric measurements are noisy, the existing identity-based encryption systems cannot be used directly to construct IBE scheme. The error-tolerance property of Fuzzy-IBE allows for a private key to decrypt a ciphertext encrypted with a slightly different measurement of the same biometric. Based on this property, a new biometric identity based encryption scheme is proposed. Our scheme is constructed in the standard model and achieves a selective identity security. In addition, the security of our scheme is reduced to decision bilinear Diffie-Hellman(BDH) assumption instead of other strong assumptions.

The Internet Of Things

Security is a main concern for the Internet of Things (IoT) infrastructure as large volumes of data are collected and processed in the systems. Due to the limited resources of interconnected sensors and devices in the IoT systems, efficiency is one of the key considerations when deploying security solutions (e.g., symmetric/asymmetric encryption, authentication, etc.) in IoT. In this paper, we present an efficient Hierarchical Identity-Based Encryption (HIBE) system with short parameters for protecting data confidentiality in distributed IoT infrastructure. Our proposed HIBE system has the public parameters, private key, and ciphertext, each consisting of a constant number of group elements. We prove the full security of the HIBE system in the standard model using the dual system encryption technique. We also implement the proposed scheme and compare the performance with the original Lewko–Waters HIBE. To the best of our knowledge, our construction is the first HIBE system that achieves both full security in the standard model and short parameters in terms of the public parameters, private key, and ciphertext.

AbstractRecently, Zhang et al. proposed a new anonymous hierarchical identity-based encryption (anonymous HIBE) over prime order groups to achieve both constant size private key and constant size ciphertext. Moreover, a double exponent technique was used to provide anonymity. They proved that their scheme is secure and anonymous against chosen plaintext attacks in the standard model. In this paper, we point out that their scheme is insecure.

Provably Secure

In this paper, a new construct of hierarchical identity-based signature(HIBS) scheme is proposed at first. It has many advantages over those available, such as fully secure without using random oracles, efficient signing algorithm. Additionally, it is provably secure under the computational Diffie-Hellman(CDH) assumption. This assumption is more natural than many of the hardness assumptions recently introduced to HIBS in the standard model. However, the length of its private key and signature increases as the hierarchy depth expands. Then a modified scheme is presented. The signature of modified scheme consists of three group elements and the private keys size shrinks as the identity depth increases. Under the h-CDH assumption, it is provable security in full security model without using random oracles.

Accountable authority identity-based encryption (A-IBE) is an extension of identity-based encryption (IBE) in which private key’s source can be traced, i.e., whether the key comes from a private key generator or a user. SM9 is an official cryptography standard of China which defines a practical IBE scheme. In this paper, we construct a practical A-IBE scheme from the SM9-IBE scheme. Our A-IBE scheme has public traceability and is proven secure if the based SM9-IBE scheme is secure. Compared with other A-IBE schemes, our A-IBE scheme has better efficiency in encryption and decryption.
