Elliptic Curve-Based Certificateless Signatures for Identity-Based Encryption (ECCSI)

Metadata

Publisher: IETF
Doc Type: Informational
Pages: 17
Abstract: Many signature schemes currently in use rely on certificates for authentication of identity. In Identity-based cryptography, this adds unnecessary overhead and administration. The Elliptic Curve-based Certificateless Signatures for Identity-based Encryption (ECCSI) signature scheme described in this document is certificateless. This scheme has the additional advantages of low bandwidth and low computational requirements. This document is not an Internet Standards Track specification; it is published for informational purposes.
