A Biometric Ring Signature Scheme for Authorized Subsets

A Biometric Identity Based Signature Scheme

We describe an identity based signature scheme that uses biometric information to construct the public key. Such a scheme would be beneficial in a legal dispute over whether a contract had been signed or not by a user. A biometric reading provided by the alleged signer would be enough to verify the signature. We make use of Fuzzy extractors [7] to generate a key string from a biometric measurem...

Code-based Ring Signature Scheme

McEliece is one of the oldest known public key cryptosystems, however it was not quite as successful as RSA. One main reason is that it is widely believed that code-based cryptosystems like McEliece do not allow practical digital signatures. Although X.M. Wang presented a code-based signature scheme in 1990, some authors find that it is not secure. Recently, T.Courtois et al. show a new way to ...

A New Multivariate-based Ring Signature Scheme

Most of the existing ring signature schemes are based on traditional cryptography, such as RSA and discrete logarithm. Unfortunately these schemes would be broken if quantum computers emerge. The MQ-problem based PublicKey Cryptosystem (MPKC) is an important alternative to traditional PKCs for its potential to resist future attacks of quantum computers. In this paper, we proposed a new ring sig...

A Ring Signature Scheme Using Bilinear Pairings

A Lattice-Based Threshold Ring Signature Scheme

In this article, we propose a new lattice-based threshold ring signature scheme, modifying Aguilar’s code-based solution to use the short integer solution (SIS) problem as security assumption, instead of the syndrome decoding (SD) problem. By applying the CLRS identification scheme, we are also able to have a performance gain as result of the reduction in the soundness error to 1/2 per round. S...
