Abstract

We introduce new isogeny-related assumptions called Isog-DDH and Isog-DBDH assumptions. By using the assumptions, we reinforce security of several existing (hierarchical) identity-/attribute-based encryption (HIBE/ABE) schemes. While the existing schemes are proven from the standard DBDH assumption, our reinforced secure ones have two incomparable security proofs: one is proven from the DBDH as well and another is proven from the Isog-DDH assumption which is incomparable with DBDH. As a result, if either DBDH or Isog-DDH assumption holds, the proposed HIBE/ABE schemes are secure. For obtaining our (H)IBE secure in the standard model, we assign a unique (product) group called ID-group to each (H)ID, and introduce a new proof technique, i.e., ID-group partitioning by using isogenies as trapdoors.
