Abstract
Blind signature is an interesting cryptographic primitive which allows user to get signature on his document from signatory authority, without leaking any information. Blind signature is useful in many e-commerce applications where user’s anonymity is the main concern. Since the Zhang et al., was the first to propose the identity based blind signature, many schemes based on bilinear pairing have been proposed. But the computational cost of pairing operation on elliptic curve is around 20 times the point multiplication on an elliptic curve. In order to save the running time, we present a new Identity-Based Blind Signature (ID-BS) scheme whose security is based on elliptic curve discrete logarithm problem (ECDLP). Performance comparison shows that proposed scheme reduces the cost of computation. Security analysis shows that proposed scheme is secure against the adversary and achieves the property of blindness and Non-forgeabillity. At the end; we propose an e-cash payment system based on our ID-based blind signature scheme.
