Abstract

An RSA-based signing scheme that combines essentially optimal efficiency with attractive security properties. One preferred signing routine requires one RSA decryption plus some hashing, verifications requires one RSA encryption plus some hashing, and the size of the signature preferably is the size of the modulus. Given an ideal underlying hash function, the scheme is not only provably secure, but has security tightly related to the security of RSA. An alternative embodiment maintains all of the above features and, in addition, provides message recovery. The techniques can be extended to provide schemes for Rabin-based signatures or signatures using other trapdoor functions.
