Certificateless-based signature can eliminate the need of certificates in the Public Key Infrastructure and solve the inherent key escrow problem in the identity-based cryptography. In 2012 Zhang et al. [J. Zhang and J. Mao, An efficient RSA-based certificateless signature scheme, Journal of Systems and Software, vol. 85, pp. 638-642, 2012] proposed the first certificateless signature scheme based on RSA operations and showed that their scheme is provably secure in the random oracle model. However, He et al. [D. He, M.Khan, and S. Wu, On the security of a RSA-based certificateless signature scheme, International Journal of Network Security, vol.16, no.1, pp.78-80, 2014] recently showed that Zhang et al.'s scheme is insecure against a type I adversary who can replace users' public keys. In this paper, we propose an improved version based on RSA which not only keeps the original security properties of the signature, but also is secure against a type I adversary.

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.

Traditional public key cryptosystem (PKC) requires high maintenance cost for certificate management. Although, identity based cryptosystem (IBC) reduces the overhead of management, it suffers from the drawback of key escrow. Certificate-based cryptosystem solves certificate revocation problem and eliminate third party queries in the traditional PKI. In addition, it also solves the inherent key escrow problem in the IBC. In this paper, we proposed an efficient certificate-based signature and the result shows that the scheme is provable secure against two game attacks of certificate-based signature in the random oracle model. The security is closely related to the difficulty of solving the discrete logarithm problem.

Aimed at improving the security and efficiency of anonymous authentication in vehicular ad hoc network (VANET), a certificateless batch anonymous authentication scheme without bilinear pairings is put forward. By coordinating Trust Authority (TA) and vehicles to generate the public/private key pairs and pseudonyms, the system security is freed from dependency on tamperproof devices. Through comprehensive analyses, this scheme is proved not only to be able to realize such security properties as authentication, anonymity, traceability, unforgeability, forward or backward security, etc., but also able to resist Type I and Type II attacks in the random oracle model. Moreover, this scheme effectively reduces system storage load by means of certificateless authentication, and the authentication efficiency can also be increased by realizing batch authentication based on pairing-free calculation. Accordingly, the scheme is proved to be significant in theory and valuable in application in the Internet of Things or embedded environment with limited resources.

Threshold decryption allows a message encrypted under a public key to be read only when a quorum of users cooperate to decrypt the ciphertext. However, such threshold decryption scheme does not apply well in the situation where all the users have their own public/private key pairs, but not share any private key associated with a public key, such as mobile ad hoc network featured by its dynamic character. An immediate way to achieve threshold decryption in this situation is to split the message into pieces, then encrypt these pieces under the public keys of different users. However, it is not efficient. In this paper, we propose an efficient identity based multi-receiver threshold decryption scheme that could be applied efficiently in the above situation. We also define the security notions and prove the security in random oracle model. At last, we add the broadcast feature to the scheme, such that a message could be broadcast to any number of groups.

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 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.

In 2014, a new security definition of a revocable identity-based signature (RIBS) with signing key exposure resistance was introduced. Based on this new definition, many scalable RIBS schemes with signing key exposure resistance were proposed. However, the security of these schemes is based on traditional complexity assumption, which is not secure against attacks in the quantum era. Lattice-based cryptography has many attractive features, and it is believed to be secure against quantum computing attacks. We reviewed existing lattice-based RIBS schemes and found that all these schemes are vulnerable to signing key exposure. Hence, in this paper, we propose the first lattice-based RIBS scheme with signing key exposure resistance by using the left-right lattices and delegation technology. In addition, we employ a complete subtree revocation method to ensure our construction meeting scalability. Finally, we prove that our RIBS scheme is selective-ID existentially unforgeable against chosen message attacks (EUF-sID-CMA) under the standard short integer solutions (SIS) assumption in the random oracle model.

In 2009, R. Tso et al. proposed an efficient pairing-based short signature scheme which is provably secure in the Random Oracle Model. In this paper, we propose a new key substitution attack on Raylin Tso et al.’s short signature scheme. For a given message and the corresponding valid signature, the malicious attacker can generate a substituted public key. Everyone verifies the signature successfully with the malicious attacker’s substituted public key. Therefore, Raylin Tso et al.’s short signature scheme has a security flaw in the multi-user setting.
