However, heavy computational cost is required during signing in existing work of ABS, which grows linearly with the size of the predicate formula. As a result, this presents a significant challenge for resource-limited users (such as mobile devices) to perform such heavy computation independently. Aiming at tackling the challenge above, we propose and formalize a new paradigm called OABS, in which the computational overhead at user side is greatly reduced through outsourcing such intensive computation to an untrusted signing-cloud service provider (S-CSP). Furthermore, we apply this novel paradigm to existingABS to reduce complexity and present two schemes, i) in the first OABS scheme, the number of exponentiations involving in signing is reduced from O(d) to O(1) (nearly three), where d is the upper bound of threshold value defined in the predicate; ii) our second scheme is built on Herranz et al's construction with constant-size signatures. The number of exponentiations in signing is reduced from O(d2) to O(d) and the communication overhead is O(1). Security analysis demonstrates that both OABS schemes are secure in terms of the unforgeability and attribute- signer privacy definitions specified in the proposed security model. Finally, to allow for high efficiency and exibility, we discuss

EXISTING SYSTEM: We specify that existing work of ABS requires a large number of exponentiations in signing. Thecomplexity commonly grows linearly with the size of the predicate formule in threshold ABS6. Such inefficiency becomes even more serious for ABS with more expressive predicate. The problem that how to securely outsource different kinds ofexpensive computations has drew considerable attention from theoretical computer science community. PROPOSED SYSTEM: The proposed OABS scheme with outsourced verification reduces the computation load at signerside through delivering computation to V-CSP but only lefting two exponentiations locally. Because the outsourcing verification method is the same as, the security can be also guaranteed based on the assumption that the S-CSP does not collude with the V-CSP. In another word, V-CSP cannot cheat to let an invalid signature pass the verification algorithm becauseis blinded and not available to V-CSP PROBLEM STATEMENT: There are three entities involved in our OABS system, namely, the attribute authority, users (includesigners and verifiers), and S-CSP. Typically, the signers obtain their private keys from attribute authority,with which they are able to sign messages later for any predicate satisfied by the possessedattributes. Verifiers will be convinced of the fact that whether a signature is from one of the userswhose attributes satisfy the signing predicate, but remaining completely ignorant of the identity of thesigner. Different from the definition of traditional ABS an additional entity S-CSP is introduced. Specifically, S-CSP is to finish the outsourced expensive tasks in signing phase and relieve thecomputational burden at signer side. SCOPE:
- 3. The proposed scheme of OABS must satisfy outsource able requirement. Specifically, the runningtime of Sign must be less than directly computing the signature itself. In original ABS construction, it requires single-based exponentiations to generate the signature. However, sincemultiple exponentiations have been delivered to S-CSP, in OABS-I, the signing algorithm Sign simplyrequires 3 single-based exponentiations, which is independent of the attribute to be signed.We also specify that our technique in OABS-I allows S-CSP to perform delegated signing byemploying an AND gate at private key for each user. Therefore, to generate an outsourcing key,attribute authority has to compute exponentiations in G, which is linear with the size ofrequest attribute set Ω. Fortunately, in practical, the generation is allowed to be performed once forall. After obtaining private key and outsourcing key from authority, user is able to (delegated) signany message with it. Such amortized computation cost of generating the outsourcing key is rather lowcost. Moreover, we consider a scenario that user has limited computation and storage ability. In thiscase, the outsourcing key can be firstly generated by authority and sent to S-CSP. Therefore, user onlyneeds to store a small-sized componentlocally but still maintaining signing capability. MODULE DESCRIPTION: Number of Modules After careful analysis the system has been identified to have the following modules: 1. Cloud Computing Module. 2. Attribute Based Signature Module. 3. OutsourceABS Computation Module. 4. OABS With Outsource Verification Module. 1. Cloud Computing Module:
- 4. Cloud computing, provides thefeasibility to reduce the computation overhead at user side by outsourcing the computation of signingto a signing-cloud service provider (S-CSP). This presents a significant challenge for users that manage and viewprivate data on mobile devices where processors are often one to two orders of magnitude slower thantheir desktop counterparts. We employ a hybrid privatekey by introducing a default attribute for all the users in the system. The private key component for user'sattributes (denoted as outsourcing key OK in this paper) which is to be utilized by S-CSP to computethe outsourced signature; ii) the private key component for the default attribute which is to be utilizedby signer to generate a normal ABS signature from the outsourced signature returned from S-CSP. 2. Attribute Based Signature Module: Attribute-based signature (ABS) enables a party to sign a messagewith _fine-grained access control over identifying information. Specifically, in an ABS system, users obtain their attribute private keys from an attribute authority, with which they can later sign messagesfor any predicate satisfied by their attributes. A verifier will be convinced of the fact that whether thesigner's attributes satisfy the signing predicate while remaining completely ignorant of the identity of signer. ABS is much useful in a wide range of applications including private access control, anonymouscredentials, trust negotiations, distributed access control for ad hoc networks, attribute-basedmessaging. 3.OutsourceABS Computation Module: Outsourced attribute-based signaturescheme OABS consists of five probabilistic polynomial-time algorithms below: Setup: It takes as input the security parameter _, attribute universe U and an auxiliaryinformation d. It outputs the public key PK and the master key MK. Key Gen (MK; Ω) : For each user's private key request on attribute set Ω, the private key generation algorithm takes as input the master key MK and the attribute set Ω. It outputs the user's privatekey SK and the outsourcing key OK.
- 5. Sign out (OK; Ω; _): The outsourced signing algorithm takes as input the outsourcing key OK,the corresponding attribute set Ω and the predicate _. It outputs the partial signature _part. Sign(SK;M; _part; _) : The signing algorithm takes as input the private key SK, the message M,the partial signature _part and the corresponding predicate _. It outputs the signature _ of messageM with the predicate _. Verify(M; _; _; PK) : The verifying algorithm takes as input a message M, the signature _,the predicate _ and public key PK. It outputs 1 if the original signature is deemed valid and 0otherwise. 5. OABS With Outsource Verification Module: This technique can only guarantee the correctness of outsourced computation with accountability, it cannot check the correctness and detect the misbehaves of S-CSP on spot. To solve this problem, we provide another solution to verify the outsourced signature with low computational cost by introducing another independent entity called verifying-cloud service provider (V-CSP). We also introduce an assumption that the S-CSP and V-CSP will not collude. Actually, such assumption has also appearedto deal with the problem of secure outsourcing computation as well. Accordingly, an outsourced verification protocol, including the transformation algorithm for outsourced verification Transfer, the outsourced verifying algorithm Verifyoutand the verifying algorithm Verify, replaces the original verifying algorithm in OABS definition.
