Welcome to the resource topic for 2004/362

Title:
A new security proof for Damgård’s ElGamal

Authors: Kristian Gjøsteen

Abstract:

We provide a new security proof for a variant of ElGamal proposed by Damgård, showing that it is secure against non-adaptive chosen ciphertext. Unlike previous security proofs for this cryptosystem, which rely on somewhat problematic assumptions, our computational problem is similar to accepted problems such the Gap and Decision Diffie-Hellman problems.
