ID-based signature without trusted PKG by ZHOU Liang1, LI Da-peng2, YANG Yi-xian1

“…PKG（private key generater） scheme was presented to overcome Chen-Zhang-Kim’s scheme drawback about a large amount of computation and Gorantla-Saxena’s scheme drawback about needing trusted PKG.More precisely,under the random oracle model,the scheme is proved to be secure against existential forgery on adaptively chosen message and ID attack,assuming CDHP is intractable.The scheme not only is traceable that the arbiter can use Trace algorithm to de-tect deceiver but also eliminates the inherent key escrow problem.As compared with the typical signatures schemes to date,the proposed scheme achieves the higher efficiency.…”

Efficient ID-based multicast authentication protocol in wireless sensor networks by WANG Gang1, WEN Tao1, GUO Quan2, MA Xue-bin1

“…In order to overcome the drawback of the existent multicast authentication protocol in WSN,the PKC-based services for WSN was explored and an efficient ID-based multicast authentication protocol was presented.The protocol with message recovery provided the feature that the message was recoverable from the signature and hence the computa-tional cost and communication overhead of the protocol had been reduced greatly.This protocol was proved secure against existential forgery under adaptive chosen message and ID attack in the random oracle model.The performance analysis results show that the proposed scheme can effectively reduce resource cost,adapt the characteristics of WSN and is clearly superior to the HESS,Zhang and BLS protocols.…”

Verifiable multi-secret sharing schemes applicable to arbitrary access structures by ZHANG Fu-tai1, WANG Yu-min2

“…Verifiable multi-secret sharing on general access structures was studied.A method of construct verifiable se-cret sharing schemes with arbitrary access structure was given.The verifiable multi-secret sharing schemes constructed by this method have the following properties: multiple secrets can be shared at the same time in a group of shareholders.The secret shares sent to shareholders are publicly verifiable.The public information with respect to each shared secret is publicly verifiable.And the supply of false shares in the process of secret recovery can be prevented.Analysis shows that the verifiable multi-secret sharing schemes constructed by our method are not only secure,but also efficient.…”

Bedřich ze Strážnice a husitské posádky ve Slezsku by Martin Čapský

“…In Silesia, the priest Bedřich of Strážnice helped to transform the system operating among the garrisons in Central and South Moravia, including the collection of food in the form of tributes, obtaining the spoils of war, supplying through the convoys sent from the Hussite domain, and the cooperation with local elites. At the same time, securing supplies determined the main features of military operations. …”

Attribute-based encryption with hidden policies in the access tree by Yan SONG, Zhen HAN, Feng-mei LIU, Lei LIU

“…The existing policies-hidden attribute-based encryption (ABE) schemes could only support a limited access structure,which resulted in weak expressiveness.A new structure of access tree was thus proposed to integrate attribute hiding and secret sharing into “and” gate,“or” gate and “threshold” gate.Then,a tree-based policies-hidden scheme was constructed by using composite order bilinear groups.Under dual system encryption,the scheme was proved to be secure.Furthermore,the analysis and experiment demonstrate that the scheme realize policies-hidden in the complex ac-cess structure without increasing the overhead of computation.As a result,it is more feasible and flexible for applica-tions.…”

Integrity verification protocol based on privacy homomorphism data aggregation by Xing LI, Chun-yan LI, Liang-min WANG

“…Secure data aggregation in wireless sensor networks can effectively prevent privacy leakage,data tampering and other issues,it also achieves efficient data transmission.An integrity verification protocol based on privacy homomorphism data aggregation (IV-PHDA) was presented.The protocol uses homomorphism encryption to ensure data privacy,then it used random detection nodes to detect the integrity of the aggregated results to verify whether the aggregation node faithfully transmit each data packet.The theoretical analysis and simulation comparison verify the performance of the algorithm,the results show that this protocol can detect data integrity through transmission,and achieve better privacy protection and higher data accuracy.…”

Évaluer l’impact d’un changement d’échelle sur la durabilité des services d’eau : la méthode ABAFAD by Antoine Brochet , Christophe Wittner

“…However, due to the sociotechnical characteristics of drinking water utilities, these stakes (renewal of the heritage, securing the water supply, etc.) appear decisive. We are formalizing here a theoretical-empirical method called "ABAFAD" which enables the evaluation of future impacts according to two hypotheses: that of a fragmentation of the administrative organization of water services, and that of a mutualization. …”
