CERTIFICATELESS SIGNATURE AND BLIND SIGNATURE

Certificateless public key cryptography is a new paradigm introduced by Al-Riyami and Paterson.It eliminates the need of the certificates in traditional public key cryptosystems and the key escrow problem in IDentity-based Public Key Cryptography(ID-PKC).Due to the advantages of the certificateless public key cryptography,a new efficient certificateless pairing-based signature scheme is presented,which has some advantages over previous constructions in computational cost.Based on this new signature scheme,a certificateless blind signature scheme is proposed.The security of our schemes is proven based on the hardness of computational Diffie-Hellman problem.
