Title:
M-Sel: A Message Selection Functional Encryption from Simple Tool
Authors: Ahmad Khoureich Ka
Abstract:In this paper, we put forward a new practical application of Inner-Product Functional Encryption (IPFE) that we call Message Selection functional encryption (M-Sel) which allows users to decrypt selected portions of a ciphertext. In a message selection functional encryption scheme, the plaintext is partitioned into a set of messages M = {m1, . . . , mt}. The encryption of M consists in encrypting each of its elements using distinct encryption keys. A user with a functional decryption key skx derived from a selection vector x can access a subset of M from the encryption thereof and nothing more. Our construction is generic and combines a symmetric encryption scheme and an inner product functional encryption scheme, therefore, its security is tied to theirs. By instantiating our generic construction from a DDH-based IPFE we obtain a message selection FE with constant-size decryption keys suitable for key storage in lightweight devices in the context of Internet of Things (IoT).
