Title:
Easy-ABE: An Easy Ciphertext-Policy Attribute-Based Encryption

Authors: Ahmad Khoureich Ka

Abstract:

Attribute-Based Encryption is widely recognized as a leap forward in the field of public key encryption. It allows to enforce an access control on encrypted data. Decryption time in ABE schemes can be long depending on the number of attributes and pairing operations. This drawback hinders their adoption on a broader scale.

In this paper, we propose a non-monotone CP-ABE scheme that has no restrictions on the size of attribute sets and
policies, allows fast decryption and is adaptively secure under the CBDH-3 assumption. To achieve this, we approached the problem from a new angle, namely using a set membership relation for access structure. We have implemented our scheme using the Java Pairing-Based Cryptography Library (JPBC) and the source code is available on GitHub.
