Abstract

This paper proposes a new public key based system that enables us to have a single public key with one or more decryption keys and a unique signing key. One straightforward application for our system is in delegated or proxy based decryption. The proxy based decryption requires that the decryption authority can be delegated to another party (proxy) without revealing the signing key information. This suggests that the proxy who has the legitimate right for decryption cannot sign on behalf of the public key owner; only the legitimate signer can be the owner of the public key.
