Forward-Secure Identity-Based Shorter Blind Signature from Lattices

Yanhua Zhang

Blind signature (BS) plays one of key ingredients in electronic cash or electronic voting system. However, the key exposures bring out very serious problems in insecure mobile devices. Forward-secure blind signatures preserve the validity of past signatures and prevent a forger from forging past signatures even if current secret key has been compromised. In this paper, we propose the first forward-secure identity-based shorter blind signature scheme from lattices which can resist quantum attack, and prove that our scheme satisfies the security requirements of blindness, unforgeability, and forward secrecy in the random oracle model. Furthermore, we also extend our construction to a forward-secure identity-based shorter blind signature in the standard model.

Enhanced McCullagh-Barreto identity-based key exchange protocols with master key forward security

Master key forward security is an important property for identity-based key exchange protocols. Unfortunately, most of existing identity-based key exchange protocols do not satisfy this property. In this paper, we firstly analyse Xie's modified protocol to show that signature is undesirable for an identity-based key agreement protocol with the master key forward secrecy. Then we present two improved protocols from McCullagh-Barreto identity-based key agreement protocol to capture the master key forward security. Our first protocol is efficient and its security can be proved with the help of a decisional oracle, while the second one achieves stronger security and its security can be reduced to a computational problem in the random oracle model. The master key forward secrecy is proved under the computational Diffie-Hellman assumption.

Forward Secure Proxy Signature Scheme over NTRU Lattice

YE Qing, YANG Xiaomeng, ZHAO Zongqu, ZHANG Jing

Most existing forward secure proxy signature schemes are constructed based on traditional number theory problems,such as large integer decomposition,discrete logarithm and bilinear pairs,and they are easy to be cracked in a quantum computing environment.In order to deal with the threat of quantum computing environment and reduce the risk of secret key leakage in proxy signature,an identity-based forward secure proxy signature scheme with NTRU lattice is constructed.Introduce forward secure features into the proxy signature over the lattice.Under the random prediction model,the security of the program is converted to the intractability of SIS,and a detailed efficiency analysis is also given.Analysis results show that the scheme realizes forward secrecy and strong non-repudiation,and it is verifiable and strongly identifiable.The computing efficiency is also improved as a result of the shortened signature key of the proxy signer,and shortened signature and signature key of the original signer.
