However, proxy signature can only provide the delegated authenticity and cannot provide confidentiality. Recently, Gamage et al and Chan and Wei proposed different proxy signcryption schemes respectively, which extended the concept of proxy signature. However, only the specified receiver can decrypt and verify the validity of proxy signcryption in their schemes. To protect the receiver's benefit in case of a later dispute, Wu and Hsu proposed a convertible authenticated encryption scheme, which can enable the receiver to convert signature into an ordinary one that can be verified by anyone. Based on Wu and Hsu' s scheme and improved Kim's scheme, we propose a convertible proxy signcryption scheme. The security of the proposed scheme is based on the intractability of reversing the one-way hash function and solving the discrete logarithm problem. The proposed scheme can satisfy all properties of strong proxy signature and withstand the public key substitution attack and does not use secure channel. In addition, the proposed scheme can be extended to convertible threshold proxy signcryption scheme.展开更多

Certificateless signcryption and pro- xy signcryption in identity-based cryptography were proposed for different applications. Most of these schemes are constructed by bilinear pairings from elliptic curves. However, some schemes were recently presented without pai- rings. In this paper, we present a certificateless proxy identity-based signcryption scheme with- out bilinear pairings, which is efficient and secure.展开更多
