Such protocols are, arguably, not suitable for many real-word applications, as the latter tends to require a stronger sense of forward secrecy--perfect forward secrecy. In this paper, we propose an efficient perfect forward-secure identity-based key agreement protocol in the escrow mode. We prove the security of our protocol in the random oracle model, assuming the intractability of the Gap Bilinear Diffie-Hellman (GBDH) problem.展开更多
