Abstract
Methods, systems and computer program products are provided for authenticating a message via a revocable signature. The method includes, at a signing computer, generating first auxiliary data and second auxiliary data respectively dependent on a public key and a private key of a public-private key pair for the message. The signing computer hashes the message and the first auxiliary data via a chameleon hash algorithm, using a public hash key of a verifier computer, to produce a first hash value. The signing computer signs the first hash value, using a secret signing key of the signing computer, to produce a signature. The signing computer sends the message, the signature and the first auxiliary data to the verifier computer, and stores the second auxiliary data.
