Short Signatures from the Weil Pairing

TLDR
A short signature scheme based on the Computational Diffie-Hellman assumption on certain elliptic and hyperelliptic curves is introduced, designed for systems where signatures are typed in by a human or signatures are sent over a low-bandwidth channel.
Abstract
We introduce a short signature scheme based on the Computational Diffie-Hellman assumption on certain elliptic and hyperelliptic curves. The signature length is half the size of a DSA signature for a similar level of security. Our short signature scheme is designed for systems where signatures are typed in by a human or signatures are sent over a low-bandwidth channel.

Security in RFID and Sensor Networks

Yan Zhang, +1 more
TL;DR: The book begins with a discussion of current security issues that threaten the effective use of RFID technology, then shifts the focus to WSNs, beginning with a background in sensor network security before moving on to survey intrusion detection, malicious node detection, jamming, and other issues of concern to W SNs and their myriad of applications.

An ID-based aggregate signature scheme with constant pairing computations

TL;DR: This paper proposes an efficient ID-based aggregate signature scheme with constant pairing computations and gives its security proof in the random oracle model under the Computational Diffie-Hellman assumption.

Practical forward secure sequential aggregate signatures

TL;DR: Two more practical FssAgg1 signature schemes are proposed, derived from existing forward secure signature schemes, that have constant-size public and private keys, constant- size signatures as well as constant-time key update and signature generation complexity.

Remote Data Checking With a Designated Verifier in Cloud Storage

TL;DR: A new RDPC scheme with the designated verifier, in which the data owner specifies a unique verifier to check the data integrity, which has less communication, storage, and computation overhead while achieving high error detection probability.

A novel multi-server remote user authentication scheme using self-certified public keys for mobile clients

TL;DR: It is shown that Tseng et al.'s scheme cannot withstand an insider attack, offline dictionary attack and malicious server attack, and security analysis shows that the proposed scheme can withstand various possible attacks resulting from the multi-server environment.

Random oracles are practical: a paradigm for designing efficient protocols

TL;DR: It is argued that the random oracles model—where all parties have access to a public random oracle—provides a bridge between cryptographic theory and cryptographic practice, and yields protocols much more efficient than standard ones while retaining many of the advantages of provable security.

A digital signature scheme secure against adaptive chosen-message attacks

TL;DR: A digital signature scheme based on the computational difficulty of integer factorization possesses the novel property of being robust against an adaptive chosen-message attack: an adversary who receives signatures for messages of his choice cannot later forge the signature of even a single additional message.
