In this scheme a message to be signed is coded with unitary operators. Combining quantum measurement with quantum encryption, the signer can generate the signature for a given message. Combining the entangled states generated by the TTP's Bell measurement with the signature information, the verifier can verify the authentication of a signature through a single quantum state measurement. Compared with previous schemes, our scheme is more efficient and less complex, furthermore, our scheme can ensure the anonymity of the signer.展开更多

The signatory Alice signs two different messages with unitary operations(corresponding to the secret keys) and applies entanglement swapping to generate a quantum dual signature. The dual signature is firstly sent to the verifier Bob who extracts and verifies the signature of one message and transmits the rest of the dual signature to the verifier Charlie who verifies the signature of the other message. The transmission of the dual signature is realized with quantum teleportation of coherent states. The analysis shows that the security of secret keys and the security criteria of the signature protocol can be greatly guaranteed.An extensional multi-party quantum dual signature scheme which considers the case with more than three participants is also proposed in this paper and this scheme can remain secure. The proposed schemes are completely suited for the quantum communication network including multiple participants and can be applied to the e-commerce system which requires a secure payment among the customer, business and bank.展开更多

Different from the existing quantum signature schemes, our scheme can offer two-step verification security services to ensure the validity of the verification. In order to guarantee the unconditional security of the scheme, the quantum key distribution protocol and one-time pad encryption algorithm are employed in our scheme. Besides, the entanglement swapping of Bell states mechanism enhances the security of verification criteria. The proposed scheme has the properties of nonforgeability, nonrepudiation, lindness,and traceability.展开更多

It involves a small-scale quantum computation network in three phases, i.e. initializing phase, signing phase and verifying phase. In the scheme, a member of the group signs the message on behalf of the group while the receiver verifies the signature's validity with the aid of the trusty group manager who plays a crucial role when a possible dispute arises. Analysis result shows that the signature can neither be forged nor disavowed by any malicious attackers.展开更多

文摘经典区块链中拜占庭容错共识机制使用的公钥数字签名在量子计算机的指数级加速下暴露出脆弱性,存在一定的安全风险。针对拜占庭容错共识机制不具有量子安全性的问题,提出了基于HotStuff的高效量子安全拜占庭容错共识机制EQSH(Efficient Quantum-Secured HotStuff)。首先,为解决现有无条件安全签名(Unconditionally Secure Signatures,USS)通信复杂度高的问题,提出了一种高效的多方环形量子数字签名(Efficient Multi-party Ring Quantum Digital Signatures,EMRQDSs)方案,该方案基于一种环形量子网络,在保证量子安全性、不可伪造性、不可抵赖性以及可转移性的同时,通信复杂度为O(n)。其次,为了消除量子敌手对门限签名的安全威胁,对HotStuff中使用的门限签名进行替换,提出了一种基于密钥分发中心的签名收集方案,该方案可以实现与门限签名同样的效果,通信复杂度为O(n),同时保证了量子安全性。最后,将上述两个方案相结合,应用于HotStuff中,提供了量子安全性;设计了一个起搏器保证了活性;简化了共识信息格式,使用流水线共识流程提高了共识效率。EQSH中没有使用量子纠缠等成本较高的技术,可在现有技术条件下实现,实用价值较高。相较于HotStuff,EQSH具有量子安全性。相较于其他非纠缠型量子安全拜占庭容错共识机制,EQSH首次将通信复杂度降为O(n),具有更佳的性能表现,且对于客户端量子线路数量的需求更低,有利于降低量子网络的架设成本。
