ID-based Key-insulated Authenticated Key Agreement Protocol

The basic idea behind an ID-based cryptosystem is that end user's public key can be determined by his identity information.Comparing with the traditional certificate-based cryptography,identity-based cryptography can eliminate much of the overhead associated with the deployment and management of certificate.However,exposure of private keys can be the most devastating attack on a public key based cryptosystem since such that all security guarantees are lost.In this paper,an ID-based authenticated key agreement protocol was presented.For solving the problem of key exposure of the basic scheme,the technique of key insulation was applied and a key insulated version is developed.     

An Efficient Provable Secure ID-Based Proxy Signature Scheme Based on CDH Assumption

IntroductionMambo, et al.[1]first introduced the conceptof proxy signature. In their scheme, an originalsigner delegates his signing right to a proxy signerin such a way that the proxy signer can sign anymessage on behalf of the original signer and theverifier can verify and distinguish proxy signaturefrom original signature. Proxy signature is of greatuse in such a case that a manager needs to autho-rize his secretary to sign documents on behalf ofhimself before his leaving for a vacation. Du…
