보안 하드웨어 연산 최소화를 통한 효율적인 속성 기반 전자서명 구현

초록

An attribute based signature system is a cryptographic system where users produce signatures based on some predicate of attributes, using keys issued by one or more attribute authorities. If a private key is leaked during signature generation, the signature can be forged. Therefore, signing operation computations should be performed using secure hardware, which is called tamper resistant hardware in this paper. However, since tamper resistant hardware does not provide high performance, it cannot perform many operations requiring attribute based signatures in a short time frame. This paper proposes a new attribute based signature system using high performance general hardware and low performance tamper resistant hardware. The proposed signature scheme consists of two signature schemes within a existing attribute based signature scheme and a digital signature scheme. In the proposed scheme, although the attribute based signature is performed in insecure environments, the digital signature scheme using tamper resistant hardware guarantees the security of the signature scheme. The proposed scheme improves the performance by 11 times compared to the traditional attribute based signature scheme on a system using only tamper resistant hardware.
