This work proposes a high-capacity scheme for separable reversible data hiding in encrypted images. At the sender side, the original uncompressed image is encrypted using an encryption key. One or several data hiders use the MSB of some…
Based on the two-step protocol [Phys. Rev. A68(03)042317], we propose a $(n,n)$-threshold multiparty quantum secret sharing protocol of secure direct communication. In our protocol only all the sharers collaborate can the sender's secure…
This paper presents an identity based multi-proxy multi-signcryption scheme from pairings. In this scheme a proxy signcrypter group could authorized as a proxy agent by the coopration of all members in the original signcryption group. Then…
The main aim of this paper is to construct a multi-secret sharing scheme for general access structure in a trusted dealer model using suitable hash function and Lagrange's interpolation method. Even though, the proposed scheme is a…
We propose an adaptive threshold multi secret sharing scheme based solely on cryptographically secure hash functions. We show that the proposed scheme is also: perfect, ideal, verifiable, and proactive. Moreover the proposed scheme has a…
Typical multiparty semi-quantum secret sharing (MSQSS) protocols require the dealer to possess full quantum capabilities, while the classical users usually need to perform three operations. To address this practical limitation, this paper…
Multi-signcryption is used when different senders wants to authenticate a single message without revealing it. This paper proposes a multi signcryption scheme in which no pairing is computed on the signcryption stage and the signatures can…
Distributed storage plays an essential role in realizing robust and secure data storage in a network over long periods of time. A distributed storage system consists of a data owner machine, multiple storage servers and channels to link…
In this work, we consider the problem of secure multi-party computation (MPC), consisting of $\Gamma$ sources, each has access to a large private matrix, $N$ processing nodes or workers, and one data collector or master. The master is…
Secret sharing of a quantum state, or quantum secret sharing, in which a dealer wants to share certain amount of quantum information with a few players, has wide applications in quantum information. The critical criterion in a threshold…
A feasible, secure and collusion-attack-free quantum sealed-bid auction protocol is proposed using a modified scheme for multi-party circular quantum key agreement. In the proposed protocol, the set of all ($n$) bidders is grouped in to $l$…
This paper deals with distributed matrix multiplication. Each player owns only one row of both matrices and wishes to learn about one distinct row of the product matrix, without revealing its input to the other players. We first improve on…
One crucial and basic method for disclosing a secret to every participant in quantum cryptography is quantum secret sharing. Numerous intricate protocols, including secure multiparty summation, multiplication, sorting, voting, and more, can…
A secret can be an encrypted message or a private key to decrypt the ciphertext. One of the main issues in cryptography is keeping this secret safe. Entrusting secret to one person or saving it in a computer can conclude betrayal of the…
We present a simple and practical protocol for the solution of a secure multiparty communication task, the secret sharing, and its experimental realization. In this protocol, a secret message is split among several parties in a way that its…
We propose a simultaneous quantum secure direct communication scheme between one party and other three parties via four-particle GHZ states and swapping quantum entanglement. In the scheme, three spatially separated senders, Alice, Bob and…
A multiparty quantum secret report scheme is proposed with quantum encryption. The boss Alice and her $M$ agents first share a sequence of ($M$+1)-particle Greenberger--Horne--Zeilinger (GHZ) states that only Alice knows which state each…
In distributed matrix multiplication, a common scenario is to assign each worker a fraction of the multiplication task, by partitioning the input matrices into smaller submatrices. In particular, by dividing two input matrices into…
Threshold secret sharing schemes do not prevent any malicious behavior of the dealer or shareholders and so we need verifiable secret sharing, to detect and identify the cheaters, to achieve fair reconstruction of a secret. The problem of…
Cooperative control is crucial for the effective operation of dynamical multi-agent systems. Especially for distributed control schemes, it is essential to exchange data between the agents. This becomes a privacy threat if the data is…
