Abstract

The threshold cryptography provides a new approach to building intrusion tolerance applications. In this paper, a threshold decryption scheme based the Menezes-Vanstone elliptic curve cryptosystem is presented. Based on the scheme, the architecture of an intrusion-tolerant Web security system is presented. Performance analysis shows that the architecture is characterized by excellent security as well as high efficiency.
