Abstract

We describe two Hierarchical Identity Based Encryption (HIBE) schemes which are selective-ID chosen ciphertext secure. Our constructions are based on the Boneh-Boyen and the Boneh-Boyen-Goh HIBE schemes respectively. We apply the signature-based method to their HIBE schemes. The proposed l-level HIBE schemes are directly derived from l-level HIBE schemes secure against chosen plaintext attacks without padding on identities with one-bit. This is more compact than the known generic transformation suggested by Canetti et al..

This research was supported by the MIC(Ministry of Information and Communication), Korea, under the ITRC(Information Technology Research Center) support program supervised by the IITA(Institute of Information Technology Advancement)(IITA-2006-(C1090-0603-0025)).
