Abstract

In this paper, we present an identity-based encryption (IBE) scheme from lattices with efficient key revocation. We adopt multiple trapdoors from the Agrawal-Boneh-Boyen and Gentry-Peikerty-Vaikuntanathan lattice IBE schemes to realize key revocation, which in turn, makes use of binary-tree data structure. Using our scheme, key update requires logarithmic complexity in the maximal number of users and linear in the number of revoked users for the relevant key authority. We prove that our scheme is selective secure in the standard model and under the LWE assumption, which is as hard as the worst-case approximating short vectors on arbitrary lattices.
