In attribute-based signature, a signer obtains his private key corresponding to the set of his attributes from a trusted authority, and then he can sign a message with any predicate that is satisfied by his attributes set. Unfortunately, there does not exist an attributebased signature which is resistance to the quantum attacks. This means we do not have secure attribute-based signature schemes in a post-quantum world. Based on this consideration, an attribute-based signature on lattices,which could resist quantum attacks, is proposed. This scheme employs "bonsai tree" techniques, and could be proved secure under the hardness assumption of small integer solution problem.展开更多

文摘Attribute-based signature is a versatile class of digital signatures. In attribute-based signature, a signer obtains his private key corresponding to the set of his attributes from a trusted authority, and then he can sign a message with any predicate that is satisfied by his attributes set.

Based on this consideration, an attribute-based signature on lattices,which could resist quantum attacks, is proposed. This scheme employs "bonsai tree" techniques, and could be proved secure under the hardness assumption of small integer solution problem.
