An Identity-Based Encryption Scheme with Compact Ciphertexts

This paper proposes an identity-based encryption scheme with the help of bilinear pairings, where the identity information of a user functions as the user's public key. The advantage of an identity-based public key system is that it can avoid public key certificates and certificate management. Our i...

Summary:This paper proposes an identity-based encryption scheme with the help of bilinear pairings, where the identity information of a user functions as the user's public key. The advantage of an identity-based public key system is that it can avoid public key certificates and certificate management. Our identity-based encryption scheme enjoys short ciphertexts and provable security against chosen-ciphertext attack (CCA).
