As the XML is approved standard language by the UN, the progress which complemented the XML security has being processed rapidly. In this paper, we design and implement the "XML-Signcryption" as a security mechanism to protect the XML document that can operate between other platforms. The signature and encryption which is the standard specification in W3C needs to be able to proceed them separately. Generally the signature and encryption require four times modular exponential operation, however the signcryption only needed three times modular exponential operation. This will benefit overall system effectiveness in terms of cost. And this scheme offers to convenient the user, because the signature and encryption implement as a single XML format. This tool can save the parsing time as a number of tags is few within a document. And also, in this paper, based on a research of Web Services security, we can apply XML-Signcryption to the SOAP message to provide the security services. Based on the XML-Signcryption scheme which provides confidentiality, integrity, authentication and non-repudiation to the XML document and Web Service security simultaneously.

A Signcryption proposed by Yuliang Zheng in 1997 is a hybrid public key primitive that combines a digital signature and a encryption. It provides more efficient method than a straightforward composition of an signature scheme with a encryption scheme. In a mobile communication environment, the authenticated key agreement protocol should be designed to have lower computational complexity and memory requirements. The password-based authenticated key exchange protocol is to authenticate a client and a server using an easily memorable password. This paper proposes an secure Authenticated Key Exchange protocol using Signcryption scheme. In Addition we also show that it is secure and a more efficient that other exiting authenticated key exchange protocol.

In this paper, we introduce a new concept called generalized ring signcryption (GRSC), which can achieve ring signature and ring signcryption functions with only one key pair and one algorithm. It is very useful for a system which has a large number of users, or has limited storage space, or whose function requirements may be changed later. We give a formal definition and a security model of GRSC and propose a concrete scheme based on bilinear pairings. In the random oracle model, the scheme's confidentiality can be proved under the GBDH assumption, and its unforgeability can be proved under GDH' assumption, and what is more, this scheme also allows unconditional anonymity. Compared with other identity-based ring signcryption schemes that use bilinear pairings as well, our scheme is a highly efficient one.

최근 전자상거래의 발달로 전자화폐의 사용이 증가하고, 이에 전자결제의 안전한 처리를 위한 전자서명의 생성 및 검증과 메시지의 암호화와 복호화 등의 효율적인 연산이 필요하게 되었다 더욱이 전자상거래가 무선통신 환경으로 확대되며, 적은 메모리 용량을 사용해서 빠른 연산을 수행하고, 적은 통신량을 보장해야 하는 요구사항 등이 증가함에 따라, 이러한 제약사항을 지원할 수 있는 방식이 요구된다. 이러한 전자상거래의 전자지불시스템의 제약사항은 메시지 인증과 은닉성을 동시에 효율적으로 제공하면서 계산량과 통신비용을 줄인 기법인 signcryption 개념과 계산상 효율적인 ECC 기반의 연산을 수행하여 해결 가능하다. 간 논문에서는 기존의 signcryption 방식을 분석하고 문제점을 도출하여, 통신의 각 객체의 비밀정보를 사용한 일차 다항식으로 메시지 복호화를 제공하는 효율적인 EC-Signcryption 방식을 제안한다.

Fuzzy identity-based cryptography introduces the threshold structure into identity-based cryptography, changes the receiver of a ciphertext from exact one to dynamic many, makes a cryptographic scheme more efficient and flexible. In this paper, we propose the first fuzzy identity-based signcryption scheme in lattice-based cryptography. Firstly, we give a fuzzy identity-based signcryption scheme that is indistinguishable against chosen plaintext attack under selective identity model. Then we apply Fujisaki-Okamoto method to obtain a fuzzy identity-based signcryption scheme that is indistinguishable against adaptive chosen ciphertext attack under selective identity model. Thirdly, we prove our scheme is existentially unforgeable against chosen message attack under selective identity model. As far as we know, our scheme is the first fuzzy identity-based signcryption scheme that is secure even in the quantum environment.

Signcryption is a cryptographic primitive which offers authentication and confidentiality simultaneously with a cost lower than signing and encrypting the message independently. We propose a new cryptographic notion called Identity-based online/offline signcryption. The notion of online/offline scheme can be divided into two phases, the first phase is performed offline prior to the arrival of a message to be signed or encrypted and the second phase is performed online phase after knowing the message and the public key of recipient. The Online phase does not require any heavy computations such as pairings or exponents. It is particularly suitable for power-constrained devices such as smart cards. In this paper, we propose ID-based signcryption scheme and ID-based online/offline signcryption scheme where the confidentiality and authenticity are simultaneously required to enable a secure and trustable communication environment. To our best knowledge, this is the first ID-based online/offline signcryption scheme that can be proven secure in the standard model.

According to the development of mobile communications, the future mobile communication systems are expected to provide high quality multimedia service to users. Therefore, many technical factors we needed in these systems. Especially the confidentiality and the security would be obtained through the introduction of the security for mobile communications. In this paper, we propose an efficient Proxy-Signcryption scheme, which can be performed digital signature and encryption by using the proxy agent who has more computational power under mobile communications environment. The proposed scheme provides non-repudiation and prevents creating illegal signature by the origin and proxy agent in a phase of proxy signature processing. This scheme also keeps the confidentiality and the security in mobile communication by means of confirming the signature by right receiver.

Equipped with the advantages of flexible access control and fine-grained authentication, attribute based signcryption is diffusely designed for security preservation in many scenarios. However, realizing efficient key evolution and reducing the calculation costs are two challenges which should be given full consideration in attribute based cryptosystem. In this paper, we present a key-policy attribute based signcryption scheme (KP-ABSC) with delegated computation and efficient key updating. In our scheme, an access structure is embedded into user's private key, while ciphertexts corresponds a target attribute set. Only the two are matched can a user decrypt and verify the ciphertexts. When the access privileges have to be altered or key exposure happens, the system will evolve into the next time slice to preserve the forward security. What's more, data receivers can delegate most of the de-signcryption task to data server, which can reduce the calculation on client's side. By performance analysis, our scheme is shown to be secure and more efficient, which makes it a promising method for data protection in data outsourcing systems.
