However,exposure of proxy signing keys can be the most devastating attack on a proxy signature scheme since any adversary can sign messages on behalf of the proxy signer. In this paper,we applied Dodis,et al.’s key-insulation mechanism and proposed an Identity-Based (ID-based) Key-Insulated Proxy Signature (IBKIPS) scheme with secure key-updates. The proposed scheme is strong key-insulated and perfectly key-insulated. Our scheme also supports unbounded period numbers and random-access key-updates.展开更多

To reduce the underlying danger induced by private key leakage, Dodis et al.(2003) proposed the first key-insulated signature scheme. To handle issues concerning the private key leakage in certificateless signature schemes, we devise the first certificateless key-insulated signature scheme. Our scheme applies the key-insulated mechanism to certificateless cryptography, one with neither certificate nor key escrow. We incorporate Waters (2005)’s signature scheme, Paterson and Schuldt (2006)’s identity-based signature scheme, and Liu et al.(2007)’s certificateless signature scheme to obtain a certificateless key-insulated signature scheme. Our scheme has two desirable properties. First, its security can be proved under the non-pairing-based generalized bilinear Diffie-Hellman (NGBDH) conjecture, without utilizing the random oracle model; second, it solves the key escrow problem in identity-based key-insulated signatures.展开更多
