Abstract
WAP Forum recommends to use WTLS handshake protocol and signText() function to certify the POP (proof of possession) of authentication key and signing key. However, it causes plenty of computation and communication overload to mobile devices with low computation and communication power. In this paper, we propose an efficient POP confirmation protocol based on the signcryption scheme, which requires less computation and communication cost. It would be useful for the wireless and wired PKI. The proposed protocol is based on Zheng’s signcryption scheme, because it is the first and only signcryption scheme submitted to the international standard institute(IEEE p1363).
