چکیده

Proxy re-encryption is a useful concept and many proxy reencryption schemes have been proposed in the asymmetric encryption setting. In the asymmetric encryption setting, proxy re-encryption can be beautifully implemented because many operations are available to directly transform a cipher to another cipher without the proxy needs to access the plaintexts. However, in many situations, for a better performance, the data is encrypted using symmetric ciphers. Most symmetric ciphers do not support proxy cryptography because of malleability (that is needed to implement the proxy re-encryption) is not a desired property in a secure encryption scheme. In this paper, we suggest an idea to implement a pure proxy re-encryption for the symmetric ciphers by first transforming the plaintext into a random sequence of blocks using an All or nothing transform (AONT). We show an example of the proxy re-encryption scheme using a weak encryption (i.e. simple permutation) that has a simple conversion function to convert a permutation to another. The encryption scheme exploits three characteristics of an AONT transformation: (1) the output of an AONT is a pseudorandom, (2) the output of an AONT cannot be transformed back if any parts is missing, and (3) the output of an AONT cannot be transformed back without having all blocks with correct position. We show security argument of the proposed scheme and its performance evaluation.

Efficient Hybrid Proxy Re-Encryption for Practical Revocation and Key Rotation

We consider the problems of i) using public-key encryption to enforce dynamic access control on clouds; and ii) key rotation of data stored on clouds. Historically, proxy re-encryption, ciphertext delegation, and related technologies have been advocated as tools that allow for revocation and the ability to cryptographically enforce dynamic access control on the cloud, and more recently they hav...

A ciphertext-policy attribute-based proxy re-encryption scheme for data sharing in public clouds

Ciphertext-policy attribute-based proxy re-encryption (CP-ABPRE) extends the traditional Proxy ReEncryption (PRE) by allowing a semi-trusted proxy to transform a ciphertext under an access policy to another ciphertext with the same plaintext under a new access policy (i.e., attribute-based re-encryption). The proxy, however, learns nothing about the underlying plaintext. CP-ABPRE has many real ...

On the Role of PKG for Proxy Re-encryption in Identity Based Setting

In 1998, Blaze, Bleumer, and Strauss proposed a kind of cryptographic primitive called proxy re-encryption[3]. 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(Id...

Survey on Cryptographic Schemes for Security in Cloud Data Storage

A Cloud data storage system consists of collection of storage servers over the internet which provides long term storage services. The data stored in a third party’s cloud system may cause serious concern over data confidentiality. To keep sensitive user data confidential against un-trusted servers and to provide security, access control in cloud there are some cryptographic techniques speciall...

On DDos Attack against Proxy in Re-encryption and Re-signature

In 1998, Blaze, Bleumer, and Strauss proposed new kind of cryptographic primitives called proxy re-encryption and proxy resignature[BBS98]. In proxy re-encryption, a proxy can transform a ciphertext computated under Alice’s public key into one that can be opened under Bob’s decryption key. In proxy re-signature, a proxy can transform a signature computated under Alice’s secret key into one that...
