Abstract

Privacy-preserving leakage-deterring public-key encryption techniques are provided. A sender system sends to an authority system a commitment to leakage-deterring-data, and proves in zero-knowledge that the sender system has access to an opening to the commitment. The sender system receives a signature corresponding to a signed commitment to the leakage-deterring-data and an identifier of the sender system. The sender system encrypts a message to a receiver system by applying a one-time pad to the message using a one-time-pad key, and encrypts the result of the application with the public key of the receiver system. The sender system encrypts the one-time-pad key with an attribute-based encryption scheme with a public key of an oblivious decryptor system. The sender system forms a ciphertext from a combination of the encrypted message and the encrypted one-time-pad key and sends the ciphertext to the receiver system.
