Generic Construction Of (Identity-Based) Perfect Concurrent Signatures, Sherman S. M. Chow, Willy Susilo

The notion of concurrent signatures was recently introduced by Chen, Kudla and Paterson. In concurrent signature schemes, two entities can produce two signatures that are not binding, until one of the parties releases an extra piece of information (namely the keystone). Subsequently, it was noted that the concurrent signature scheme proposed in the seminal paper cannot provide perfect ambiguity. Then, the notion of perfect concurrent signatures was introduced. In this paper, we define the notion of identity-based (or ID-based) perfect concurrent signature schemes. We provide the first generic construction of (ID-based) perfect concurrent signature schemes from ring signature schemes. …

Biometric based authentication can provide strong security guarantee about the identity of users. Security of biometric data is particularly important as compromise of the data will be permanent. Cancelable biometrics store a non-invertible transformed version of the biometric data and so if the storage is compromised the biometric data remains safe. Cancelable biometrics also provide a higher level of privacy by allowing many templates for the same biometric data and hence non-linkability of user's data stored in different databases. We define how to measure the success of a particular transformation and matching algorithm for fingerprints. We consider a key-dependent geometric …

The impact of many well intentioned technology integration projects has not always been viewed favourably. In fact, many projects are destined to fail from the outset by not considering fundamental IT system inves tment risks (technical failure, data failure, user failure, organizational failure) [Lyytinen & Hirschiem, 1987]. With any new technology ‘an element of uncertainty exists in the minds of decision makers with respect to the successful adoption of them’ [Bagozzi et al, 1992]. Uncertainty towards adopting new technologies is not solely the domain of decision makers. Apart from chief technology and information officers, system administrators and help desk personnel, …
