A Strong and Efficient Certificateless Digital Signature Scheme

Mohammed Alfateh Hassouna and Mohsin Hashim

Abstract

This paper extends the certificateless public key infrastructure model that was proposed by Hassouna et al by proposing new digital signature scheme to provide true non-repudiation, the proposed signature scheme is short and efficient, it is also has strength point that the KGC has no contribution in signature generation/verification process, therefore any compromise of the KGC does not affect the non-repudiation service of the system. Furthermore, even the KGC cannot do signature forgery by (temporary) replacing the user’s public key.
