Abstract

A key generation device generates a decryption key dkhaving a tag-added decryption key and a decryption key adk. The tag-added decryption key includes a decryption key tdkin which a key attribute x is set and a tag tgrequired to decrypt a ciphertext with the decryption key tdk. In the decryption key adk, the key attribute x is set. An encryption device generates an original ciphertext octin which a ciphertext attribute y corresponding to the key attribute x is set and which can be decrypted with the tag-added decryption key. A re-encryption key generation device encrypts the decryption key tdkby an attribute-based encryption scheme using a ciphertext attribute y', so as to generate a re-encryption key rkwhich is a key for generating a re-encrypted ciphertext rctwhich can be decrypted with a decryption key adkin which a key attribute x′ corresponding to the ciphertext attribute y′ is set.
