Cloud computing is now a widespread and economical option when data owners need to outsource or share their data. Designing secure and efficient data access control mechanism is one of the most challenging issues in cloud storage service. Anonymous broadcast encryption is a promising solution for its advantages in the respects of computation cost and communication overload. We bring forward an efficient anonymous identity-based broadcast encryption construction combined its application to the data access control mechanism in cloud storage service. The lengths for public parameters, user private key and ciphertext in the proposed scheme are all constant. Compared with the existing schemes, in terms of encrypting and decrypting computation cost, the construction of our scheme is more efficient. Furthermore, the proposed scheme is proved to achieve adaptive security against chosen-ciphertext attack adversaries in the standard model. Therefore, the proposed scheme is feasible for the system of data access control in cloud storage service.

The main challenge in building efficient broadcast systems is to encrypt messages with short ciphertexts. In this paper, we present a new construction based on the identity. Our construction contains the desirable features, such as constant size ciphertexts and private keys, short public keys and not fixing the total number of possible users in the setup. In addition, the proposed scheme achieves the full security which is stronger than the selective-identity security. Furthermore we show that the proof of security does not rely on the random oracles. To the best our knowledge, it is the first efficient scheme that is full security and achieves constant size ciphertexts and private keys which solve the trade-off between the ciphertext size and the private key size.

In an identity-based threshold broadcast encryption (IDTHBE) scheme, a broadcaster chooses a set of n recipients and a threshold value t, and the plaintext can be recovered only if at least t receivers cooperate. IDTHBE scheme is different from the standard threshold public key encryption schemes, where the set of receivers and the threshold value are decided from the beginning. This kind of scheme has wide applications in ad hoc networks. Previously proposed IDTHBE schemes have ciphertexts which contain at least n elements. In addition, the security of theses schemes relies on the random oracles. In this paper, we introduce two new constructions of IDTHBE for ad hoc networks. Our first scheme achieves S-size private keys while the modified scheme achieves constant size private keys. Both schemes achieve approximately (n-t)-size ciphertexts. Furthermore, we also show that they are provablesecurity under the decision bilinear Diffie-Hellman Exponent (BDHE) assumption in the standard model.

Blockchain is a technology that enables trust-based consensus and verification based on a decentralized network. Distributed ID (DID) is based on a decentralized structure, and users have the right to manage their own ID. Recently, interest in self-sovereign identity authentication is increasing. In this paper, as a method for transparent and safe sovereignty management of data, among data pseudonymization techniques for blockchain use, various methods for data encryption processing are examined. The public key technique (homomorphic encryption) has high flexibility and security because different algorithms are applied to the entire sentence for encryption and decryption. As a result, the computational efficiency decreases. The hash function method (MD5) can maintain flexibility and is higher than the security-related two-way encryption method, but there is a threat of collision. Zero-knowledge proof is based on public key encryption based on a mutual proof method, and complex formulas are applied to processes such as personal identification, key distribution, and digital signature. It requires consensus and verification process, so the operation efficiency is lowered to the level of O (log_eN) ~ O(N²). In this paper, data encryption processing for blockchain DID, based on zero-knowledge proof, was proposed and a one-way encryption method considering data use range and frequency of use was proposed. Based on the content presented in the thesis, it is possible to process corrected zero-knowledge proof and to process data efficiently.

ID기반 재암호화 기법(ID-based foxy re-encryption scheme)은 사용자 간의 복호 능력 위임을 가능하게 하며 분산 데이터 저장, DRM, 이메일 전달 시스템 등의 다양한 분산 암호시스템을 위해 활발히 연구되고 있다. 최근 재암호화키 생성의 비상호성(Non-interactivity)을 제공하는 기법이 Green과 Ateniese에 의해 제안되었다. 이 기법은 선택 암호문 공격에 대한 안전성을 제공하기 위해 설계되었다. 본 논문에서는 Green-Ateniese ID기반 재암호화 기법이 근본적으로 사용자 키 노출 공격에 취약함을 보이고 선택 암호문 공격에 대한 안전성이 보장되지 않음을 증명한다. 그리고 이러한 보안 취약점을 해결하는 새로운 두 가지 ID기반 재암호화 기법들을 제안한다. 제안 기법들이 랜덤 오라클 모델(Random Oracle Model)에서 단순 평문 공격과 선택 암호문 공격에 대해 각각 안전함을 증명한다. 선택 암호문 공격에 안전한 제안 기법을 구성하기 위해, 본 논문에서는 최초로 짧은 서명에 기반한 자가 인증 기법을 고안하여 적용한다. 제안 기법의 중요한 특징은 재암호화 후 암호문의 구조가 유지되는 것이다. 따라서 이전 기법들과는 대조적으로 암호문 확장이 발생되지 않는다. 또한 재암호화의 횟수에 제한이 없어서 연속적인 암호문 변환이 가능하여 다중의 사용자를 위한 복호 능력 위임을 구현할 수 있다.

동적 임계 공개키 암호 시스템(dynamic threshold public-key encryption)이란 시스템을 구축하는 과정에서 전체 사용자들의 집합과 인증된 수신자 집합의 크기, 임계치를 고정값으로 설정하지 않고 유연하게 변경될 수 있는 기능을 제공하는 임계 암호 시스템을 말한다. 이와 관련하여 신원정보를 공개키로 사용하는 ID기반 암호 시스템(identity-based encryption)과 동적 임계 공개키 시스템을 결합하여 ID기반 동적 임계 암호 시스템(identity-based dynamic threshold encryption)을 설계하려는 연구가 이뤄지고 있으며, 최근 2011년 Xing과 Xu은 동적 기능을 제공하는 ID기반 임계 암호기법을 제안하였다. 본 논문에서는 Xing과 Xu가 제안한 ID기반 동적 임계 암호 시스템을 분석하고 구조적으로 문제점이 있음을 보인다. 또한 겹선형 함수를 이용한 ID기반 암호 시스템을 ID기반 동적 임계 암호 시스템으로 변환하는 방법(conversion method)를 제안한다. 마지막으로, 변환하여 설계한 기법이 완전한 풀 모델(full model)로 선택된 평문 공격(chosen plaintext attack)환경에서 안전함을 증명한다.

Key exposure is a major threat to secure cryptosystems. To mitigate the impact caused by key-compromise attacks, a key-insulated cryptographic mechanism is a better alternative. For securing the large message communication in peer-to-peer networks, in this paper, we propose the first novel identity-based key-insulated encryption (IB-KIE) scheme with message linkages. Our scheme has the properties of unbounded time periods and random-access key-updates. In the proposed scheme, each client can periodically update his private key while the corresponding public one remains unchanged. The essential security assumption of our proposed scheme is based on the well-known bilinear Diffie-Hellman problem (BDHP). To ensure the practical feasibility, we also formally prove that the proposed scheme achieves the security requirement of confidentiality against indistinguishability under adaptive chosen-ciphertext attacks (IND-CCA2) in the random oracle model.

In the paper, we propose a novel adaptively secure hierarchical identity-based signature scheme from lattices. The size of signatures in our scheme is shortest among the existing hierarchical identity-based signature schemes from lattices. Our scheme is motivated by Gentry et al.'s signature scheme and Agrawal et al.'s hierarchical identity-based encryption scheme.

Deniable authentication (DA) is a protocol in which a receiver can generate an authenticator that is probabilistically indistinguishable from a sender. DA can be applied in many scenarios that require user privacy protection. To enhance the security of DA, in this paper, we construct a new deniable authenticated encryption (DAE) scheme that realizes deniable authentication and confidentiality in a logical single step. Compared with existing approaches, our approach provides proof of security and is efficient in terms of performance analysis. Our scheme is in an identity-based environment; thus, it avoids the public key certificate-based public key infrastructure (PKI). Moreover, we provide an example that shows that our protocol is applicable for e-voting systems.
