A construction concerning revocation of group members is an ideal one if it satisfies forward security which makes it more attractive for not sacrificing the security of past signatures of deleted members. This paper analyses the problem and gives a construction in which the group manager can be un-trustworthy. The scheme is efficient even when the number of revoked members is large.展开更多

In this paper, the proof of knowledge of divisibility is given and a novel membership revocation method in ACJT group signature scheme is proposed: the group manager issues the product E of the public keys of current members in the group, when a group member wants to sign, he should not only proves that he has a membership certificate, but also proves that the public key in his certificate divides exactly the public key product E with zero knowledge. The proposed method is efficient since the group manager only needs one division and one exponentiation when a group member is deleted, while the signing and verifying procedure are independent of the number of current group members and excluded members, as well as the original group public key and membership certificates needn't be changed.展开更多

It allows the group manager to increase or delete group members flexibly. Furthermore, the length of group signatures, as well as the computational effort for signing, verifying and opening are very small and independent of the number of group members and deleted group members. So it is efficient.展开更多

文摘Up to now, how to construct an efficient secure group signature scheme, which needs not to reset the system when some group members' signing keys are exposed, is still a difficult problem. A construction concerning revocation of group members is an ideal one if it satisfies forward security which makes it more attractive for not sacrificing the security of past signatures of deleted members. This paper analyses the problem and gives a construction in which the group manager can be un-trustworthy. The scheme is efficient even when the number of revoked members is large.
