Title:
Elementary Remarks on Some Quadratic Based Identity Based Encryption Schemes
Authors: George Teseleanu, Paul Cotan
Abstract:In the design of an identity-based encryption (IBE) scheme, the primary security assumptions center around quadratic residues, bilinear mappings, and lattices. Among these approaches, one of the most intriguing is introduced by Clifford Cocks and is based on quadratic residues. However, this scheme has a significant drawback: a large ciphertext to plaintext ratio. A different approach is taken by Zhao et al., who design an IBE still based on quadratic residues, but with an encryption process reminiscent of the Goldwasser-Micali cryptosystem. In the following pages, we will introduce an elementary method to accelerate Cocks’ encryption process and adapt a space-efficient encryption technique for both Cocks’ and Zhao et al.'s cryptosystems.
