Abstract:

Abstract: The existing proxy ring signature schemes share the disadvantage of low efficiency in computation. An efficient proxy ring signature from bilinear pairing is proposed, which is obtained from Chow’s recently proposed identity-based ring signature. Furthermore, the proposed scheme can prevent the original signer from generating a valid proxy ring signature, thus the profits of the proxy signer are guaranteed. Strong unforgebility of the proposed scheme is proven to rely on CDH problem using forking lemma for ring signature under random oracle model. No pairing operation is required for the generation of a proxy ring signature and only two pairing operations are required for the verification. Compared with the existing schemes, the proposed scheme is more efficient.

Key words: bilinear pairings, proxy signature, ring signature, ambiguity
