Anonymous Broadcast Authentication with Logarithmic-Order Ciphertexts from DLP or LWE

Abstract

We propose an anonymous broadcast authentication (ABA) scheme to simultaneously control massive numbers of devices in practical resources. As a theoretical foundation, we find a barrier in constructing an ABA scheme that can control numerous devices: a trilemma between (i) security, (ii) ciphertext length, and (iii) freedom of target device selection. Therefore, we propose ABAs with ciphertext sizes of $O(\log N)$, where $N$ is the number of target devices and impose a certain restriction on (iii). We provide an ABA template and instantiate it into specific schemes from the decisional Diffie-Hellman problem or the learning with errors problem. Further, we provide example parameters and resource consumption of space and time.
