Efficient two-party certificateless authenticated key agreement protocol under GDH assumption

Abstract

Security and efficiency are two key requirements for most of the authentication protocol, especially for the mobile wireless network. However, security and efficiency are a contradiction for the design of authentication protocol, it is hard to meet the two requirements simultaneously. Since certificateless public key cryptography (CL-PKC) has an advantage in wiping off key escrow problem, many certificateless authentication key agreement (CL_AKA) protocols have been proposed. The existing CL_AKA protocols may meet either security requirement well or efficiency requirement well, but cannot meet the two well. In this paper, we propose an efficient two-party CL_AKA protocol with strong security. We perform an in-depth security analysis in extended Canetti-Krawczyk (eCK) model to show the proposed CL_AKA protocol is provably secure. The performance analysis shows that the proposed protocol can meet the strong security and efficiency requirements simultaneously.

Certificateless Two Party Key Agreement Protocol

Wenhao Liu, Chunxiang Xu, Jian Feng Xu

Certificateless cryptography aims at combining the advantages of identity based and public key cryptography in order to avoid the key escrow problem inherent in the identity based cryptography and cumbersome certificate management in the traditional public key infrastructure. The provably secure certificateless key agreement protocol is proposed by Lippold et al. in 2009, but their protocol suffers from computation burden. Owing to the above-mentioned situations, a new certificateless two party key agreement protocol (CL-KA) is proposed and the security attributes are analyzed in the extended Canetti-Krawzcyk(eCK) security model. Our protocol only requires each entity to compute two pairings, up to now, it turns out to be the most efficient one of all the previously known security CL-KA schemes.

Secure and efficient two-party certificateless authenticated key agreement protocol

Mengbo Hou, Qiuliang Xu

Authenticated key agreement protocol is used to provide data confidentiality and integrity to subsequent communications among two or more parties over a public network. Certificateless public key cryptography (CL-PKC) combines the advantage of the identity-based public key cryptography (ID-PKC) and the traditional PKI. In this paper, we present a secure and efficient two-party authenticated key agreement protocol based on the certificateless encryption scheme due to Libert and Quisquater. Security analysis shows that it achieves perfect forward secrecy, PKG forward secrecy and almost all the other known security attributes, such as known-key secrecy, key-compromise impersonation resilience, unknown key-share resilience, known session-specific temporary information security, message independence and no key control. Compared to other comparable schemes, it is more secure and efficient.

Efficient three-party authenticated key agreement protocol in certificateless cryptography

Hu Xiong, Zhong Chen, Zhiguang Qin

Key agreement protocols are multi-party protocols in which entities exchange public information allowing them to create a common secret key that is known only to those entities and which cannot be predetermined by any party. Key agreement can be achieved using a public key infrastructure or identity-based cryptography. However, the former suffers from a heavy certificate management burden, while the latter is subject to the so-called key escrow problem. Recently, the notion of certificateless public key cryptography (CL-PKC) was introduced to mitigate these limitations. In this paper, we introduce the notion of three-party authenticated key agreement into CL-PKC and propose a concrete certificateless three-party authenticated key agreement protocol. We show that the proposed protocol is secure (i.e. conforms to defined security attributes) while being efficient.

Constructing Secure Two-Party Authenticated Key Agreement Protocol Based on Certificateless Public Key Encryption Scheme

Mengbo Hou, Qiuliang Xu

Authenticated key agreement protocol is one of the important cryptographic primitives to ensure secure communication in an open network. Certificateless public key cryptography (CL-PKC) represents an interesting and potentially useful balance between public key cryptography based on certificates and identity-based cryptography. The topic of CL-PKC has undergone quite rapid development with schemes being proposed for encryption and signatures, while certificateless authenticated key agreement protocols are seldom discussed. In this paper, we present a secure two-party authenticated key agreement protocol based on an efficient certificateless public key encryption with pairing. Such a scheme achieves almost all of the security attributes, including known-key secrecy, perfect forward secrecy, PKG forward secrecy, key-compromise impersonation resilience, unknown key-share resilience, known session-specific temporary information security, message independence and no key control. Meanwhile, it is also practical with nice efficiency.

Two-party authenticated key agreement in certificateless public key cryptography

Yijuan Shi, Jianhua Li

Certificateless public key cryptography was introduced to overcome the key escrow limitation of the identity-based cryptography. It combines the advantages of the identity-based cryptography and the traditional PKI. Many certificateless public key encryption and signature schemes have been proposed. However, the key agreement in CL-PKE is seldom discussed. In this paper, we present a new certificateless two party authentication key agreement protocol and prove its security attributes. Compared with the existing protocol, our protocol is more efficient.
