Title:
On the Role of PKG for Proxy Re-encryption in Identity Based Setting
Authors: Xu an Wang, Xiaoyuan Yang, Fagen Li
Abstract:In 1998, Blaze, Bleumer, and Strauss proposed a kind of cryptographic primitive called proxy re-encryption. In proxy re-encryption, a proxy can transform a ciphertext computed under Alice’s public key into one that can be opened under Bob’s decryption key. In 2007, Matsuo proposed the concept of four types of proxy re-encryption schemes: CBE(Certificate Based Public Key Encryption) to IBE(Identity Based Encryption)(type 1), IBE to IBE(type 2), IBE to CBE (type 3), CBE to CBE (type 4). Now CBE to IBE and IBE to IBE proxy re-encryption schemes are being standardized by IEEEP1363.3 working group. In this paper, based on we pay attention to the role of PKG for proxy re-encryption in identity based setting. We find that if we allow the PKG to use its master-key in the process of generating re-encryption key for proxy re-encryption in identity based setting, many open problems can be solved. Our main results are as following: We construct the first proxy re-encryption scheme from CBE to IBE which can resist malicious PKG attack, the first proxy re-encryption scheme from IBE to CBE, the second proxy re-encryption scheme based on a variant of BB_1 IBE, the first proxy re-encryption scheme based on BB_2 IBE, the first proxy re-encryption scheme based on SK IBE, we also prove their security in their corresponding security models.
