Leakage-Resilient Certificateless Short Signature Scheme

For a certificateless short signature scheme to be applied in practical applications, it should without various leakage attacks. In this paper, we present a new leakage-resilient certificateless short signature scheme whose security is based on the classical decisional Diffie-Hellman (DDH) assumption. Our scheme is leakage-resilient signature scheme, and leaked information is a maximum value (upper bound). What is more, our scheme also enjoys a higher relative leaked information rate and still semantically secure against adaptive chosen message attack. Besides these good performance features, we have formally proved the security of our scheme in the random oracle model under the hardness of the DDH problem. With these import features, our proposal may have some significant value in the practical applications. Compared to existing schemes, our new scheme has two advantages: (1) Our scheme is leakage-resilient certificateless short signature scheme; (2) Our Scheme is leakage-resilient signature scheme, and leaked information is a maximum value (upper bound).
