Comment Fail-Stop Blind Signature Scheme Design Based on Pairings

Fail-stop signature schemes provide security for a signer against forgeries of an enemy with unlimited computational power by enabling the signer to provide a proof of forgery when a forgery happens. Chang et al proposed a robust fail-stop blind signature scheme based on bilinear pairings. However, in this paper, it will be found that there are several mistakes in Chang et al＇s fail-stop blind signature scheme. Moreover, it will be pointed out that this scheme doesn＇t meet the property of a fail-stop signature： unconditionally secure for a signer. In Chang et al＇s scheme, a forger can forge a valid signature that can＇t be proved by a signer using the ＂proof of forgery＂. The scheme also doesn＇t possess the unlinkability property of a blind signature.     

Another ID-Based Proxy Signature Scheme and Its Extension

So fur, the security of many proxy signatures has seldom been considered in a formal way and most of them cannot satisfy nonepudiation. In this work, a novel ID-based （Identity-based） proxy signature scheme is proposed by combining the proxy signature with ID-based public cryptography, and they formalize the notion of security for ID-based proxy signature schemes. And show that the security of the proposed scheme is secure. Compured with other proxy signature schemes, it does not need a secure channel. Thus, it is particularly suitable for the unreliable network computation environment. Finally, they extend proposed scheme to a proxy multi-signature which has the following advantages （1） the size of proxy multi- signature is independent of the number of delegating users; （2） the computation cost of proxy multi-signature only need two Weil paring.     

A practical identity-based signature scheme

Many identity-based signature （IBS） schemes solving key escrow were proposed, But the updating of the private keys wasn＇t discussed in these literatures. For the problem of key update, an identity-based key-insulated signature scheme with secure key-updates has been proposed. But their scheme inherited the key escrow property. In this paper, we propose a new identity-based strong key-insulated signature scheme without key escrow. It makes the IBS scheme more applicable to the real world. After analyzing the security and the performance, an application example in E-passport passive authentication scenario is described.     

An improved sanitizable signature scheme

A new sanitizable signature scheme is proposed, in which the security flaw of Miyazaki＇s sanitizable signature scheme SUMI-4 is improved. The new scheme overcomes the shortcomings of the original scheme SUM1-4 by using sanitizable authorization certificates. The new scheme enables the primitive signer to limit the sanitizer＇s power and still satisfies the security request of sanitizable signature.     

Publicly Verifiable Distributed Proxy Blind Signature Scheme

In this present paper, we propose a new proxy blind signature scheme, which is publicly verifiable distributed. The algorithm uses the idea of secret sharing schemes to distribute original signer＇s ability and the power of the proxy signer, and ensure the property of publicly verifiable secret sharing schemes. A new concept ＂verifiable time period＂ is also introduced to reduce the time cost in the period of verifications and increases the efficiency of our scheme.

A new efficient blind signcryption

In a blind signcryption, besides the functions of digital signature and encryption algorithm for authentication and confidentiality, a user can delegates another user＇s capability with the anonymity of the participants guaranteed. Some blind signcryptions were proposed but without a blind signcryption with public public verifiability. In this paper, verifiability that is proved to be efficient and secure is proposed. Through the security analysis, we proved that the scheme can offer confidentiality, integrity, unforgeability, non-repudiation and public verifiability. The coming research direction is also summarized.

Efficient privacy enhanced software registration with ID-based blind signatures

In existing software registration schemes, the privacy of users is not taken into account and may be in the risks of abuses. In this paper, we proposed a novel software registration system which can greatly reduce unauthorized use of software while keeping the privacy of users. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first system that the privacy of users is guaranteed in software registration. Our system enjoys a modular design and can be implemented by any secure ID-based partially blind signature scheme. Furthermore, the proposal allows flexible registration information definition. This feature makes our scheme flexible and practical for more software registration applications.

In this setting, a signature holder can to designate the signature to multi verifiers. Moreover, the security of our proposed scheme is based on the Gap Bilinear Difffie-Hellman assumption.     

A Signature Scheme with Non-Repudiation

Based on the Schnorr signature scheme, a new signature scheme with non-repudiation is proposed. In this scheme, only the signer and the designated receiver can verify the signature signed by the signer, and if necessary, both the signer and the designated receiver can prove and show the validity of the signature signed by the signer. The proof of the validity of the signature is noninteractive and transferable. To verify and prove the validity of the signature, the signer and the nominated receiver needn＇t store extra information besides the signature. At the same time, neither the signer nor the designated receiver can deny a valid signature signed. Then, there is no repudiation in this new signature scheme. According to the security analysis of this scheme, it is found the proposed scheme is secure against existential forgery on adaptive chosen message attack.

An efficient identity-based anonymous signcryption scheme

Signcryption is a cryptographic primitive that performs encryption and signature in a single logical step more efficiently than sign-then-encrypt approach. Till now, various kinds of signcryption schemes have been proposed. Among them, the requirement of signcrypter＇s privacy protection is needful in some practical applications. In this paper, a new identity-based anonymous signcryption scheme from hilinear pairings, which is the organic combination of identity-based ring signature and encryption scheme, is proposed. The proposed scheme is indistinguishable against the chosen ciphertext attack under the Decisional Bilinear Diffie-Hellman assumption in the random oracle model. Its unforgeability relies on the computational Diffieellman problem. Compared with the previous schemes, the new scheme is more efficient in computation.     

Server-assisted forward-secure threshold signature

Forward secure signature can protect the security of signatures previous to the key exposure. Server-assisted signature is a special digital signature in which the signer allies one server to produce the signatures. In this paper, server-assisted for-ward-secure threshold signature is proposed. The system is composed of n1 servers and n2 users. Each user and each server holds a partial secret, respectively. To produce a valid signature, users and servers need to cooperate to complete the work. The partial secrets of the users and servers are updated by a one-way function at regular intervals, while the public key is always fixed. Even if all the current partial secrets are exposed, the signatures pertaining to previous periods are still valid.
