Abstract

We propose and analyze a generalized self-healing key distribution using vector space access structure in order to reach more flexible performance of the scheme. Our self-healing technique enables better performance gain over previous approaches in terms of storage, communication and computation complexity. We provide rigorous treatment of security of our scheme in an appropriate security framework and show it is computationally secure and achieves forward and backward secrecy.
