This paper proposes a SRTP key exchange scheme using split transfer of divided RSA public key in SIP-based VoIP environment without PKI. The existing schemes are hard to apply to real VoIP environment, because they require a PKI and certificates in the end devices. But in case of ZRTP. which is one of existing schemes, it's able to exchange SRTP Key securely without PKI, but it is inconvenient since it needs user's involvement. To solve these problems, the proposed scheme will split RSA public key and transmit them to SIP signaling secession and media secession respectively. It can defend effectively possible Man-in-The-Middle attacks, and it is also able to exchange the SRTP key without the user's involvement. Besides, it meets the requirements for security of SRTP key exchange. Therefore, it's easy to apply to real VoIP environment that is not available to construct PKL.

Revocation is one of the main difficulties faced in implementing Public Key Infrastructures(PHs). Boneh, Ding and Tsudik first introduced a mediated cryptography for obtaining immediate revocation of RSA keys used in PKIs. Their method is based on the idea that each user's private key can be split into two random shares, one of which is given to the user and the other to an online security mediator(SEM). Thus any signature or decryption must be performed as a cooperation between a user and his/her associated SEM and revocation is achieved by instructing the mediator SEM to stop cooperating the user. Recently, Libert and Quisquater showed that the fast revocation method using a SEcurity Mediator(SEM) in a mRSA can be applied to the Boneh-Franklin identify based encryption and GDH signature schemes. In this paper we propose a mediated identity based signature(mIBS) with batch verification which apply the SEM architecture to an identity based signature. Libert's GDH siganture scheme is not forward secure even though forward security is an important and desirable feature for signature schemes. We propose an efficient key udating mediated signature scheme, mKUS based on mIBS and analyze its security and efficiency.
