An Anonymous Authentication Scheme for Trusted Computing Platform

HE GE

Abstract: The Trusted Computing Platform is the industrial initiative to implement computer security. However, privacy protection is a critical problem that must be solved in Trusted Computing Platform. In this paper, we propose a simple and efficient method to implement anonymous authentication in such setting. The new scheme is proved to be secure under the strong RSA assumption and decisional Diffie-Hellman assumption.

Category / Keywords: cryptographic protocols / Privacy, Direct Anonymous Attestation, Trusted Computing Platform.
