Abstract
Identity-based proxy re-encryption (IB-PRE) is a kind of public key cryptography that allows a proxy to convert the ciphertext based on Alice’s identity into another ciphertext of the same message for Bob. It has important applications in cloud computing, distributed systems and secure e-mail forwarding. So far, the existing lattice-based IB-PRE schemes are designed on the general lattice and their security is based on the learning with errors (LWE) assumption. In this paper, we propose an IB-PRE scheme over NTRU lattices with the desirable properties of anonymity, unidirectionality, backward collusion safeness and multi-hop. Our IB-PRE scheme is provable secure under adaptive chosen-plaintext and adaptive chosen-identity attacks. And, in the random oracle model, the security of our scheme is based on the decisional Ring-LWE assumption. Besides, the key and ciphertext sizes of our IB-PRE scheme are short, only one or two ring elements, and our scheme could encrypt n bits in each encryption process.
