Abstract

In this paper, we present a novel multi-receiver identity-based key encapsulation mechanism (mID-KEM) scheme which is provably secure against chosen ciphertext attacks in the standard model and has several advantages over previous constructions without random oracles, including short public parameters, short private keys, computational efficiency in decapsulation algorithm and tight security reduction. To our best knowledge, our construction is the first in the literature to achieve such a high security level (CCA-security in the full security model).

Chosen-Ciphertext Secure Key Encapsulation Mechanism in the Standard Model

Shengfeng Xu, Xiangxue Li

Key Encapsulation Mechanism (KEM) is a foundational cryptography primitive, which can provide secure symmetric cryptographic key material for transmission by using public key algorithms. Until now, many Chosen-Ciphertext (IND-CCA) secure KEM schemes are constructed from Chosen-Plaintext (IND-CPA) or One-Way (OW-CPA) secure PKE via the generic Fujisaki-Okamoto (FO) transformations (TCC 2017). However, the security relies on the Random Oracle Model (ROM). To the best of our knowledge, there are no IND-CCA secure KEM schemes based on Learning Parity with Noise (LPN) assumption that can against post quantum attacks in the standard model. In this work, we propose the first direct construction of LPN-based KEM, which is secure in the standard model. In particular, we use double-trapdoor technique to answer adversary’s decryption queries correctly and a Target Collision Resistant (TCR) hash function to check the validity of the ciphertext. The encapsulated key is determined by a special LPN problem (with no random oracle required). The scheme is IND-CCA secure against post-quantum attacks under the low-noise LPN assumptions by a series of games and the security reduction is tight. Compared with previous schemes on 128-bit security level, our CCA-secure scheme only holds 50.78MB public keys, 62.50MB secret keys and 4.54KB ciphertexts, which is more efficient than the schemes of Döttlinget al.(ASIACRYPT 2012), Kiltzet al.(PKC 2014) and Yuet al.(CRYPTO 2016) ((7.27GB, 7.24GB, 7.03KB), (80.89MB, 46.23MB, 6.80KB) and (70.95MB, 70.65MB, 86.50KB) respectively).

CCA Secure IB-KEM from the Computational Bilinear Diffie-Hellman Assumption in the Standard Model.

Yu Chen, Liqun Chen, Zongyang Zhang

Abstract. In this paper, we propose several selective-identity chosen-ciphertext attack secure identity based key encapsulation (IB-KEM) schemes that are provably secure under the computational bilinear Diffie-Hellman (CBDH) assumption in the standard model. Our schemes compare favorably to previous results in efficiency. With delicate modification, our schemes can be strengthened to be full-identity CCA secure easily.

Chosen-Ciphertext Secure Multi-Authority Fuzzy Identity-Based Key Encapsulation without ROM

Liming Fang, Jiandong Wang, Yongjun Ren +2 more

We present the first and efficient multi-authority fuzzy identity-based key encapsulation mechanism (Fuzzy-IB-KEM) scheme which is chosen ciphertext secure (CCA) without random oracle in the selective-ID model. Our main idea is to enhance Chase's "large universe" construction, chosen-plaintext secure (CPA) Fuzzy-IBE, by adding some redundant information to the ciphertext to make it CCA-secure.

Efficient chosen ciphertext secure key encapsulation mechanism in standard model over ideal lattices

Xiaopeng Yang, Wenping Ma, Chengli Zhang

Key encapsulation mechanism (KEM) is an important key distribution mechanism that not only allows both sender and receiver to safely share a random session key, but also can be mainly applied to construct a hybrid public key encryption scheme. In this paper, we give an positive answer to the question of if it is possible to build an efficient KEM over lattices. More precisely, we design an efficient KEM scheme in standard model based on ideal lattices. We prove that the proposed scheme captures indistinguishability against active chosen ciphertext attacks (IND-CCA) under the ring learning with errors problem, or more formally, IND-CCA security. Compared with the current CCA secure KEM schemes based on lattices in the standard model, our scheme has shorter public key, secret key and encapsulation ciphertext. In addition, our KEM scheme realizes IND-CCA security in the standard model.

Abstract. We use hybrid encryption with Fuzzy Identity-Based Encryption (Fuzzy-IBE) schemes, and present the first and efficient fuzzy identity-based key encapsulation mechanism (Fuzzy-IB-KEM) schemes which are chosen-ciphertext secure (CCA) without random oracle in the selective-ID model. To achieve these goals, we consider Fuzzy-IBE schemes as consisting of separate key and data encapsulation mechanisms (KEM-DEM), and then give the definition of Fuzzy-IB-KEM. Our main idea is to enhance Sahai and Waters ' "large universe " construction, chosen-plaintext secure (CPA) Fuzzy-IBE, by adding some redundant information to the ciphertext to make it CCA-secure.

Forward-secure identity-based encryption with direct chosen-ciphertext security in the standard model

Yang Lu, Jiguo Li

The paradigm of forward security provides a promising approach to deal with the key exposure problem as it can effectively minimize the damage caused by the key exposure. In this paper, we develop a new forward-secure identity-based encryption scheme without random oracles. We formally prove that the proposed scheme is secure against adaptive chosen-ciphertext attacks in the standard model. In the proposed scheme, the running time of the private key extraction and decryption algorithms and the sizes of the user's initial private key and the ciphertext are independent on the total number of time periods, and any other performance parameter has at most log-squared complexity in terms of the total number of time periods. Compared with the previous forward-secure identity-based encryption schemes, the proposed scheme enjoys obvious advantage in the overall performance. To the best of our knowledge, it is the first forward-secure identity-based encryption scheme that achieves direct chosen-ciphertext security in the standard model.
