  • - The article discusses a new deniable ring signature scheme that allows members to claim or deny their role in signing without needing a trusted third party.
  • - This scheme is designed for situations that require a balance between privacy and regulatory oversight, enabling regulators to track bad actors.
  • - The authors provide proof of the scheme’s key features—correctness, unforgeability, anonymity, and more—and show that it performs better in terms of efficiency compared to existing methods in contexts like online auctions and anonymous reporting.

Article Abstract

This article introduces a deniable ring signature scheme within the framework of a ring signature protocol, which allows a member of the ring to assert or deny their role as the signature's originator without the involvement of a trusted third party. Deniable ring signatures find applications in various scenarios where balancing privacy protection with supervised oversight is crucial. In this work, we present a novel deniable ring signature scheme based on the ISRSAC digital signature, tailored for environments with regulatory requirements, empowering regulators to hold malicious signers accountable. We formally validate the scheme's correctness, unforgeability, anonymity, traceability, and non-frameability through rigorous proofs. Additionally, we conduct a comparative analysis of the communication and computational overheads associated with our proposed scheme, demonstrating its superiority in practical scenarios such as electronic auctions and anonymous reporting mechanisms.

Lattice-Based Logarithmic-Size Non-Interactive Deniable Ring Signatures.

Entropy (Basel)

College of Computer and Communication Engineering, Zhengzhou University of Light Industry, Zhengzhou 450002, China.

Deniable ring signature can be regarded as group signature without group manager, in which a singer is capable of singing a message anonymously, but, if necessary, each ring member is allowed to confirm or disavowal its involvement in the signature via an interactive mechanism between the ring member and the verifier. This attractive feature makes the deniable ring signature find many applications in the real world. In this work, we propose an efficient scheme with signature size logarithmic to the cardinality of the ring.
