In the last couple of years, ID-based cryptography has got fruitful achievements. Proxy multi-signature allows a desig- nated person, called a proxy signer, to sign on behalf of two or more original signers. In this paper, we present a general security model for ID-based proxy multi-signature (ID-PMS) schemes. Then, we show how to construct a secure ID-PMS scheme from a secure ID-based signature scheme, and prove that the security of the construction can be reduced to the security of the original ID-based signature scheme.
This paper, focusing on the trusted computing group’s standards, explained the key concept of trusted computing and provided the architecture of trusted PC. It built trust bottom-up by starting with trusted hardware and adding layers of trusted software. It is a system-level solution available to all applications running on the member platforms. This solution reduces the security burden on applications and thus simplifies application programming.
