Relations Between Robustness And Rka Security Under Public-Key Encryption, Hui Cui, Yi Mu, Man Ho Au Jan 2016

Relations Between Robustness And Rka Security Under Public-Key Encryption, Hui Cui, Yi Mu, Man Ho Au

Faculty of Engineering and Information Sciences - Papers: Part A

We revisit the notions of robustness introduced by Abdalla, Bellare and Neven (TCC 2010), and related-key attack (RKA) security raised by Bellare, Cash and Miller (ASIACRYPT 2011). In the setting of public-key encryption (PKE), robustness means that it is hard to produce a ciphertext that is valid for two different users, while RKA security means that a PKE scheme is still secure even when an attacker can induce modifications in a decryption key, and subsequently observe the outcome of this PKE scheme under this modified key. In this paper, we explore the relationship between RKA security and various notions of …


Public Cloud Data Auditing With Practical Key Update And Zero Knowledge Privacy, Yong Yu, Yannan Li, Man Ho Au, Willy Susilo, Kim-Kwang Raymond Choo, Xinpeng Zhang Jan 2016

Public Cloud Data Auditing With Practical Key Update And Zero Knowledge Privacy, Yong Yu, Yannan Li, Man Ho Au, Willy Susilo, Kim-Kwang Raymond Choo, Xinpeng Zhang

Faculty of Engineering and Information Sciences - Papers: Part A

Data integrity is extremely important for cloud based storage services, where cloud users no longer have physical possession of their outsourced files. A number of data auditing mechanisms have been proposed to solve this problem. However, how to update a cloud user's private auditing key (as well as the authenticators those keys are associated with) without the user's re-possession of the data remains an open problem. In this paper, we propose a key-updating and authenticator-evolving mechanism with zero-knowledge privacy of the stored files for secure cloud data auditing, which incorporates zero knowledge proof systems, proxy re-signatures and homomorphic linear authenticators. …
