An Inner Product Encryption Scheme Based on Dual Systems

The inner product encryption scheme can achieve fine-grained access control on ciphertext. For the problem that the existing inner product encryption scheme has poor security and low decryption efficiency, this paper proposes an inner product encryption scheme with adaptive security based on the dual system encryption method. The scheme is based on bilinear mapping on prime order groups. In the secret key generation algorithm of the scheme, we propose a sharing technique of random vectors and generate a secret key for each component of the attribute vector. And an encryption algorithm with a constant size ciphertext is designed. Under the k-Lin assumption, the method of the experimental sequence is used to prove that the scheme is adaptively secure. The decryption algorithm of the scheme requires only six bilinear pairs. Compared with the existing schemes, the decryption efficiency has been greatly improved.
