Abstract

We propose two public-key broadcast encryption schemes. Our Scheme1 is a variant of the dynamic broadcast encryption scheme proposed by Delerablée et al.[9]. The computational cost and the encryption (public) key size are more efficient than the original scheme. We observe that by using a decryption key in the original scheme, we can encrypt a message more efficiently without a part of an encryption key. In order to let any user receive this benefit, we introduce a "dummy key" which is similar to a decryption key. Scheme2 is an extension of Scheme1 to achieve an authenticated dynamic broadcast encryption scheme that enables receivers to verify the producer of broadcasted content. In Scheme2 , we adopt the signature scheme proposed by Barreto et al. [3]. To our knowledge, Scheme2 is the first scheme that achieves provable security for broadcast encryption and signature with common parameters and keys.
