Anonymous multireceiver encryption scheme can not only protect the privacy of the receiver but also ensure the security of message. However, the computational cost of this scheme is very large. It is not suitable for the sender which has limited resources, such as mobile devices and sensor nodes. In this work, an anonymous multireceiver online/offline identity-based encryption is proposed based on offline/online and identity-based encryption (IBE). In identity-based encryption scheme, the sender can encrypt the message using the unique information of the user (such as identity number or e-mail address) as its public key. The receiver obtains the private key from a central authority. For mobile device with limited resource, the online/offline encryption scheme can reduce the computational cost. Compared to the previous anonymous multireceiver schemes, the proposed scheme can efficiently encrypt message with offline/online method and ensure the anonymity of receivers. The analysis results also show that our scheme is efficient in terms of computational cost by comparing to the previous works.

Identity-based cryptosystems were introduced to overcome one of the main problems in public key encryption, the generation of public and private keys. In the identity-based cryptosystem, an identifier such as an e-mail address of a user can be used to generate public and private keys by a trusted third party. The trusted third party uses a system-wide master secret to provide private keys to a user. Identity-based cryptosystems can be constructed using the idea of pairings. This article discusses four different identity-based cryptosystems: the Boneh-Franklin scheme, the Cock's scheme, the Authenticated IBE scheme and the Hierarchical IBE scheme. This article also discusses the security notions considered for the identity-based cryptosystem. The security notions considered are: one-wayness, indistinguishability, semantic security and non-malleability. An architecture consisting of a public parameter server and private key generator for the implementation of the identity-based cryptosystems is also discussed.

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.

The concept of Identity Based Cryptography introduced the idea of using arbitrary strings such as e-mail addresses and IP Addresses to form public keys with the corresponding private keys being created by the Trusted Authority(TA) who is in possession of a system-wide master secret. Then a party, Alice who wants to send encrypted communication to Bob need only Bob's identifier and the system-wide public parameters. Thus the receiver is able to choose and manipulate the public key of the intended recipient which has a number of advantages. While IBC removes the problem of trust in the public key, it introduces trust in the TA. As the TA uses the system-wide master secret to compute private keys for users in the system, it can effectively recompute a private key for any arbitrary string without having to archive private keys. This greatly simplifies key management as the TA simply needs to protect its master secret.

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.

In a proxy re-encryption scheme, a semi-trusted proxy converts a ciphertext for Alice into a ciphertext for Bob without seeing the underlying plaintext. A number of solutions have been proposed in public key settings. Hierarchical identity-based cryptography is a generalization of identity-based encryption that mirrors an organizational hierarchy, which allows a root private key generator to distribute the workload by delegating private key generation and identity authentication to lower-level private key generators. In this paper, we propose a hierarchical identity-based proxy re-encryption (HIBPRE) scheme which achieves IND-PrID-CCA2 security without random oracles. This is the first HIBPRE scheme up to now, and our scheme satisfies unidirectionality, non-interactivity and permits multiple re-encryptions.

Grid system has secure requirements of confidential communication, data integrity and non-repudiation. According to the secure requirements for Grid service, the paper proposed an identity-based encryption scheme for Grid, which can solve a series of problem: the privacy of data transmission, validation of integrity of data, key update after long run time and non-repudiation. The scheme is constructed by bilinear paring on elliptic cures and its security can be reduced to the computational Bilinear Diffie-Hellman assumption. Finally, the authors analyses the security and efficiency of this scheme.
