Abstract
Identity-based identification(IBI) schemes are means to achieve entity identification in the identity-based setting in a secure fashion. Quite a large number of IBI schemes exist, but, there is still a need for more efficient(in terms of computation and communication) IBI schemes, especially in domains like mobile devices and smart cards. We propose a generic framework for constructing an IBI scheme from an Identity-Based Key Encapsulation Mechanism(ID-KEM) which is semantically secure against adaptive chosen ciphertext attack on one-wayness(OW-CCA2). The derived IBI scheme will be secure against impersonation under active and concurrent attacks. This framework if applied to ID-KEM can lead to more efficient IBI scheme, as opposed to an IBI scheme developed from scratch, depending on the underlying ID-KEM used. Additionally, we propose a new concrete and efficient IBI scheme secure against concurrent attack based on the q-BDHI hard problem assumption. © 2013 Springer-Verlag.
