Refined Shacham-Waters ring signature scheme in Seo-Cheon framework

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 ...

Improved Lattice-Based Threshold Ring Signature Scheme

We present in this paper an improvement of the lattice-based threshold ring signature proposed by Cayrel, Lindner, Rückert and Silva (CLRS) [LATINCRYPT ’10]. We generalize the same identification scheme CLRS to obtain a more efficient threshold ring signature. The security of our scheme relies on standard lattice problems. The improvement is a significant reduction of the size of the signature....

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...

An Application of the Boneh and Shacham Group Signature Scheme to Biometric Authentication

We introduce a new way for generating strong keys from biometric data. Contrary to popular belief, this leads us to biometric keys which are easy to obtain and renew. Our solution is based on two-factor authentication: a low-cost card and a biometric trait are involved. Following the Boneh and Shacham group signature construction, we introduce a new biometric-based remote authentication scheme....
