Signcryption Scheme

Generalized signcryption can adaptively work as an encryption scheme, a signature scheme, or a signcryption scheme with only one algorithm. The paper proposes an efficient certificateless generic signcryption scheme without utilizing bilinear pairing operations. It is proved to satisfy confidentiality and unforgeability against chosen ciphertext and message attacks in an adaptive manner, respectively, in the random oracle model. Due to the lower computational cost and communication overhead, the proposed scheme is suitable for low power and processor devices.

Security Technologies

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.

This article proposes a novel construction of short Online/Off-line signature scheme with provable security in the random oracle model for wireless sensor network (WSN). Security of the proposed scheme relies on k-CAA Problem as well as Computational Diffie-Hellman problem and is resistant against chosen message attack. The scheme is suited for broadcast authentication and integrity of message exchanging between the sensor nodes. The process of generation of the signature is carried out in two phases online and off-line. The heavy computation is performed in off-line phase, i.e the base station. The actual signature will be generated in the sensor nodes. The authors assume that the online phase is more efficient. Here they have evaluated the size of the signature with respect to the size of the user's public key and compare with some current schemes. Also, the authors have evaluated the computational cost and time which shows the scheme is most suited to implement on sensor node.

The Troubles

With the growing development of Internet technology and popularization of mobile devices, we easily access the Internet anytime and anywhere by mobile devices. It has brought great convenience for our lives. But it brought more challenges than traditional wired communication, such as confidentiality and privacy. In order to improve security and privacy protection in using mobile network, numerous multi-receiver identity-based encryption schemes have been proposed with bilinear pairing and probabilistic hap-to-point (HTP) function. To address the troubles of private key escrow in multi-receiver encryption scheme based on ID-PKC, recently, some certificateless anonymous multi-receiver encryption (CLAMRE) schemes are introduced. But previous CLAMRE schemes using the bilinear pairing are not suitable to mobile device because the use of bilinear pairing and probabilistic hash-to-point (HTP) function results in expensive operation costs in encryption or decryption. In this paper, we propose an efficient CLAMRE scheme using elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) without bilinear pairing and HTP hash function. Since our scheme does not use bilinear pairing and HTP operation during the encryption and decryption process, the proposed CLAMRE scheme has much less computation cost than the latest CLAMRE schemes. Performance analysis shows that runtime of our scheme is much less when the sender generates ciphertext, compared with existing schemes. Security analysis shows proposed CLAMRE scheme provides confidentiality of message and receiver anonymity under the random oracle model with the difficulties of decision Diffie-Hellman problem and against the adversaries defined in CL-PKC system.

Signcryption Scheme

With ever growing popularity, wireless communication system also vulnerable to various security attacks. To provide high level security, many cryptographic solutions have been proposed. One such solution is signcryption, where authenticity and confidentiality provided by single logical step. Therefore, signcryption scheme helps to reduce computational cost, but it is not feasible for resource constraint environments. Because, most of the existing approaches were based on El-Gamal, bilinear pairing, Rivest-Shamir-Adleman (RSA), and Elliptic curve Cryptography (ECC). They consume more energy due to their increased key size. Hence, the new signcryption approach is proposed based on Hyper Elliptic Curve Cryptosystem (HECC) whose key size is much lesser than ECC. It significantly reduces the cost of computation and communication overhead by half the amount of ECC which suits well for resource constraint environments. Further, the proposed scheme attains necessary security features along with forward secrecy and public verifiability. On the other hand, the security of the approach is validated through an automated protocol validation tool – AVISPA.

Public Keys

In an ID-Based cryptosystem, identity of users are used to generate their public and private keys. In this system private key is generated by trusted private key generator (PKG). Unlike traditional PKI, this system enables the user to use public keys without exchanging public key certificates. With the exploitation of bilinear pairing, several secure and efficient ID-Based signature schemes have been proposed till now. In this paper, we have proposed an ID-Based signature scheme from bilinear pairing based on Ex-K-Plus problem. The proposed scheme is existentially unforgeable in the random oracle model under the hardness of K-CAA problem. Our scheme is also unforgeable due to hardness of ex-k-plus problem and computationally more efficient than other existing schemes.

This article describes how after the concept of anonymous credential systems was introduced in 1985, a number of similar systems have been proposed. However, these systems use zero-knowledge protocols to authenticate users, resulting in inefficient authentication during the stage of proving credential possession. To overcome this drawback, this article presents a signature scheme that uses partially blind signatures and chameleon hash functions such that both the prover and verifier achieve efficient authentication. In addition to providing a computational cost comparison table showing that the proposed signature scheme achieves a more efficient credential possession proving compared to other schemes, concrete security proofs are provided under a random oracle model to demonstrate that the proposed scheme satisfies the properties of anonymous credentials.

With the rapid development of quantum computing and quantum information technology, the universal quantum computer will emerge in the near decades with a very high probability and it could break most of the current public key cryptosystems totally. Due to the ability of withstanding the universal quantum computer’s attack, the lattice-based cryptosystems have received lots of attention from both industry and academia. In this paper, we propose an identity-based blind signature scheme using lattice. We also prove that the proposed scheme is provably secure in the random oracle model. The performance analysis shows that the proposed scheme has less mean value of sampling times and smaller signature size than previous schemes. Thus, the proposed scheme is more suitable for practical applications.

Threshold Decryption

Threshold decryption allows only quorum cooperate users to decrypt ciphertext encrypted under a public key. However, such threshold decryption scheme cannot be applied well in this situation where all users have their public and private key pairs, but do not share any private keys corresponding to the public keys, such as mobile network featured with dynamic character. The direct way to achieve threshold decryption in this case is to divide the message into several pieces and then encrypt these pieces with the public keys of different users. However, this is very inefficient. Multireceiver threshold decryption scheme that could be applied efficiently in the above situation. Recently, some certificateless (ID-based) multireceiver threshold decryption (signcryption) schemes are introduced. But the bilinear pairings are used in most of the existing schemes. In this paper, we propose an efficient certificateless threshold decryption scheme using elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) without bilinear pairing. Performance analysis shows that the proposed scheme has lower computation cost than existing some threshold decryption schemes in both encryption and decryption process. Security analysis shows that our scheme is IND-CCA secure, and no one outside of selected receivers can disclose receivers identities, against the adversaries defined in CL-PKC system under the random oracle model.
