Then we present a new identity based signcryption scheme using quadratic residue and pairings over elliptic curves. It combines the functionalities of both public verifiability and forward security at the same time. Under the Bilinear Diffie-Hellman and quadratic residue assumption, we describe the new scheme that is more secure and can be some-what more efficient than Libert and Quisquater’s one.展开更多

The scheme uses quadratic residue and pairings over elliptic curves to realize public verifiability. By analysis the scheme is proved to be more efficient than Libert and Quisquater's scheme. Moreover, a security proof of the original scheme is presented in the random oracle model.展开更多

In order to avoid the weakness and susceptive linear design, an improvement by means of two mechanisms including quadratic residue and composite discrete logarithm is proposed, which can defeat the forgery attacks in Ma and Chen scheme. The new scheme remains good confidentiality, public verifiability and efficiency.展开更多

However,the effectiveness of all the quantum signature schemes reported in the literature can only be verified by a designated person.Therefore, its wide applications are limited. For solving this problem, a new quantum proxy signature scheme using EPR quantumentanglement state and unitary transformation to generate proxy signature is presented. Proxy signer announces his public key whenhe generates the final signature. According to the property of unitary transformation and quantum one-way function, everyone canverify whether the signature is effective or not by the public key. So the quantum proxy signature scheme in our paper can be publicverified. The quantum key distribution and one-time pad encryption algorithm guarantee the unconditional security of this scheme.Analysis results show that this new scheme satisfies strong non-counterfeit and strong non-disavowal.展开更多

The existing CCA-secure public key cryptosystems on the standard model are expensive in terms of efficiency and practicality. In this paper, an efficient and practical public key cryptosystem is presented over the group of signed quadratic residues. It is provably secure against CCA on the standard model. Furthermore, public verifiability for this scheme is also realized in the way that projects the verification privacy key into public key on trapdoor pretending. It will be useful to devise efficient CCA-secure threshold and proxy re-encryption schemes on the standard model.展开更多

Some blind signcryptions were proposed but without a blind signcryption with public public verifiability. In this paper, verifiability that is proved to be efficient and secure is proposed. Through the security analysis, we proved that the scheme can offer confidentiality, integrity, unforgeability, non-repudiation and public verifiability. The coming research direction is also summarized.展开更多
