Aggregate signatures allow anyone to combine different signatures signed by different signers on different messages into a single short signature. An ideal aggregate signature scheme is an identity-based aggregate signature (IBAS) scheme…
On the basis of the signatures scheme without trapdoors from lattice, which is proposed by Vadim Lyubashevsky in 2012, we present a new ring signature scheme from lattice. The proposed ring signature scheme is an extension of the signatures…
Quantum secure signature schemes have a lot of attention recently, in particular because of the NIST call to standardize quantum safe cryptography. However, only few signature schemes can have concrete quantum security because of technical…
This work revisits the security of classical signatures and ring signatures in a quantum world. For (ordinary) signatures, we focus on the arguably preferable security notion of blind-unforgeability recently proposed by Alagic et al.…
Strongly unforgeable signature schemes provide a more stringent security guarantee than the standard existential unforgeability. It requires that not only forging a signature on a new message is hard, it is infeasible as well to produce a…
Anonymous Hierarchical Identity-Based Encryption (HIBE) is an extension of Identity-Based Encryption (IBE), and it provides not only a message hiding property but also an identity hiding property. Anonymous HIBE schemes can be applicable to…
The concept of universal designated verifier signatures was introduced by Steinfeld, Bull, Wang and Pieprzyk at Asiacrypt 2003. These signatures can be used as standard publicly verifiable digital signatures but have an additional…
Until now, there have been developed many arbitrated quantum signature schemes implemented with a help of a trusted third party. In order to guarantee the unconditional security, most of them take advantage of the optimal quantum one-time…
In this paper, an efficient arbitrated quantum signature scheme is proposed by combining quantum cryptographic techniques and some ideas in classical cryptography. In the presented scheme, the signatory and the receiver can share a…
In a 2005 IACR report, Wang published an efficient identity-based key agreement protocol (IDAK) suitable for resource constrained devices. The author shows that the IDAK key agreement protocol is secure in the Bellare-Rogaway model with…
Signcryption is a cryptographic primitive which performs encryption and signature in a single logical step. In conventional signcryption only receiver of the signcrypted text can verify the authenticity of the origin i.e. signature of the…
Construct the first provably secure linear homomorphic ring signature scheme. Ring signatures allow a signer to anonymously sign a message on behalf of a user group (ring) and are widely applied in areas such as identity protection,…
A designated verifier signature scheme allows a signer to generate a signature that only the designated verifier can verify. This paper proposes multi-signer strong designated multi-verifier signature schemes based on multiple cryptographic…
Due to potential capability of providing unconditional security, arbitrated quantum signature (AQS) schemes, whose implementation depends on the participation of a trusted third party, received intense attention in the past decade.…
Recently, Liu et al. (Quantum Inf Process (2014) 13:491-502) proposed an arbitrated quantum signature (AQS) scheme, where a signature receiver (Bob) can verify the signer's signature through the help of a trusted arbitrator. However, this…
We present a proxy signature scheme using bilinear pairings that provides effective proxy revocation. The scheme uses a binding-blinding technique to avoid secure channel requirements in the key issuance stage. With this technique, the…
We take a critical look at the relationship between the security of cryptographic schemes in the Random Oracle Model, and the security of the schemes that result from implementing the random oracle by so called "cryptographic hash…
Certificateless cryptography can be considered as an intermediate solution to overcome the issues in traditional public key infrastructure (PKI) and identity-based public key cryptography (ID-PKC). There exist a vast number of…
Identification schemes are interactive protocols typically involving two parties, a prover, who wants to provide evidence of his or her identity and a verifier, who checks the provided evidence and decide whether it comes or not from the…
Anonymous Single-Sign-On authentication schemes have been proposed to allow users to access a service protected by a verifier without revealing their identity which has become more important due to the introduction of strong privacy…
