Proxy signature scheme based on delegation of warrant is studied in these days. Proxy signature is a signature scheme that the original signer delegates his signing warrant to the proxy signer, and the proxy signer creates a signature on behalf of the original signer. For using this scheme, the security for protecting from the forgeability or misuse is necessary, There are several security requirements for using the proxy signature schemes. In this paper we suggest the proxy-register protocol scheme that original signer registers to the verifier about the proxy related information. In our scheme, verifier verifies the signature that original signer creates about the proxy information and sets the warrant of proxy signer, validity period for proxy signature and some limitation. Finally, we will show the advantages of our suggestion by comparing with the previous proxy signature schemes.

Proxy signature scheme is a cryptographic protocol that an original signer delegates her signing capability to a proxy signer, and then the proxy signer is able to create signatures on behalf of the original signer. In general, there is time-limit for which the signing capability of the proxy signer is valid. One of methods to limit the valid delegation time is to make public delegation information contain the expiration date of the delegation. however, in this method we cannot prevent the proxy signer from signing after the valid delegation is expired because no one knows the exact time when the proxy signer signed a message. The validity of the past legal signatures cannot be preserved in case that the proxy singer´s key is compromised during the delegation period. In this paper, we propose a new scheme, time-limited forward-secure proxy signature protocol, which prevents the proxy singer from signing after the valid delegation is expired and which preserves the validity of the past legal signatures even if the signing key is compromised. The proposed scheme does not require the exact time-information by making an original signer control time-related parameters and satisfies the forward-security property in each update-period of the proxy signing key. The time-period is determined according to the application characteristics or security policies.

Combining the concept of self-certified public key and message recovery, Li-Zhang-Zhu (LZZ) gives the proxy signature scheme with message recovery using self-certified public key. The security of the proposed scheme is based on the discrete logarithm problem (DLP) and one-way hash function (OWHF). Their scheme accomplishes the tasks of public key verification, proxy signature verification, and message recovery in a logically single step. In addition, their scheme satisfies all properties of strong proxy signature and does not use secure channel in the communication between the original signer and the proxy signer. In this paper, it is shown that in their signature scheme a malicious signer can cheat the system authority (SA), by obtaining a proxy signature key without the permission of the original signer. At the same time malicious original signer can also cheat the SA, he can also obtain a proxy signature key without the permission of the proxy signer. An improved signature scheme is being proposed, which involves the remedial measures to get rid of security flaws of the LZZ et al.'s. The security and performance analysis shows that the proposed signature scheme is maintaining higher level of security, with little bit of computational complexity.

In real life, we frequently use th proxy signatrue by delegating one's own privileges. It is necessary to distribute the data related to privilege delegation securely in order to use such a proxy signature in the Internet. However, inorder to use the secure proxy signature, we need to have some mechanism to prevent a proxy signer from misuse of privileges by applying proxy certificate and a privilege delegation mechanism to manage information with related to privilege delegarion. In addition, we have implemented the prototype to demonstrate the possible proxy signature service using proxy certificate.

The characteristics of International Hacking is that because even if with tracing techniques, nobody can find Real IP address of the attacker so it is true that Great difficulty in the investigation. so that an attacker goes through the Proxy Server Many times and they use techniques of IP Spoofing to hide their IP address. In this paper, study How attackers use IP Spoofing Technique and the application of Proxy Server. In addition, to Propose IP Spoofing attacks through the Proxy Server attack and defend methods also IP traceback methods so this study materials will contribute to the development of International Hacking and Security Protection Technology.

As a user in modern societies with the rapid growth of Internet environment and more complicated business flow processes in order to be effective at work and accomplish things on time when the manager of the company went for a business trip, he/she need to delegate his/her signing authorities to someone such that, the delegatee can act as a manager and sign a message on his/her behalf. In order to make the delegation process more secure and authentic, we proposed a secure and efficient identity-based proxy signcryption in cloud data sharing (SE-IDPSC-CS), which provides a secure privilege delegation mechanism for a person to delegate his/her signcryption privilege to his/her proxy agent. Our scheme allows the manager of the company to delegate his/her signcryption privilege to his/her proxy agent and the proxy agent can act as a manager and generate signcrypted messages on his/her behalf using special information called "proxy key". Then, the proxy agent uploads the signcrypted ciphertext to a cloud service provider (CSP) which can only be downloaded, decrypted and verified by an authorized user at any time from any place through the Internet. Finally, the security analysis and experiment result determine that the proposed scheme outperforms previous works in terms of functionalities and computational time.

Proxy signature scheme allow a designated proxy person to sign a message on behalf of the original signer. Partially blind signature scheme allows the signer to insert non-removable common information into his blind signature. Proxy signature and partially blind signature are very important technologies in secure e-commerce. In this paper we propose new proxy signature scheme and ID-based partially blind signature scheme using bilinear pairing. further combining them, we propose a proxy partially blind signature scheme. The security of our schemes relies on the hardness of Computational Diffie-Hellman Problem. If we removing common information form propose ID-based partially blind signature scheme and proxy partially blind signature scheme, then they become variants of ID-based blind signature scheme and proxy blind signature scheme of Zhangs respectively.

Proxy signature schemes are configured as proxy signers on behalf of their original signers can be allowed to sign messages. Basic security requirements of proxy signature schemes include the strong unforgeability and the verifiability of delegation. So far, a variety of proxy signature schemes that proved on individual basic security terms but not proved on compounded security terms are proposed. Especially the proposed proxy signature schemes based on RSA problem are proved vulnerable to an attacker with his own private key in terms of the impersonating attack. A unauthorized attacker can generate the proxy signature without the appointee's consent or authorization. In this paper, we propose a proxy signature scheme based on RSA problems and warrants that can be proved the security against the impersonating attack. The proposed proxy signature scheme is analyzed on the safety and compared in terms of efficiency with other proxy signature schemes.

E-health services have provided interoperability between personal health devices in personal area network, based the ISO/IEEE 11073 standard. In the healthcare system, the manager handles most agents concurrently through wireless communication. However, due to the distance limitation and the increased number of agents, it may be difficult to provide continuous connectivity. Recently, body area devices have been equipped with various applicable agents, which can even handle agents on behalf of the manager. A BAD may act as an intermediary device to increase system efficiency and performance. In this study, a device called "proxy", which can be installed as software on BAD devices, is proposed. The data measured by an agent can be sent to the proxy first, and subsequently be sent to the manager again. Agents and the manager are not aware of the proxy existence and work normally without the proxy. Furthermore, a new smart proxy and modified manager are proposed. The smart proxy acts as one agent handling measurement data from several agents, which can transmit a significant amount of data at once. The proxy and smart proxy maintain compatibility with existing devices that conform to the 20601 standard. The proposed schemes are verified and the complexities of devices are analyzed. The analysis shows no significant difference among the proxy, smart proxy, and manager. Simulations exhibit that the proposed schemes can improve the system performance.

Proxy signatures are signature schemes in which an original signer delegates her signing capability to a proxy entity, who signs a message on behalf of the original signer. In this paper we propose the ID-based proxy signature schemes using a bilinear map. In the previous R-based proxy signature scheme, the proxy signer can misuse the right of the signing capacity and the public key directory is required. However, by inserting the warrant information such as the identity of the proxy signer and the limit of the signing capacity to the proxy signature, our scheme can prevent the misuse of the proxy key pair by the proxy signer and does not require a public key certificate. Furthermore, our scheme dose not need a secure channel to deliver the warrant. Consequently, the proposed scheme is more efficient and useful than the previous proxy signature schemes.
