Abstract

Proxy re-encryption (PRE) realizes delegation of decryption rights, enabling a proxy holding a re-encryption key to convert a ciphertext originally intended for Alice into an encryption of the same message for Bob, and cannot learn anything about the encrypted plaintext. To the best of our knowledge, all of the existing PRE schemes are based on the Diffie-Hellman assumption and its variants. In this paper, we present the first factoring-based PRE schemes. In particular, we first propose a bidirectional multi-hop PRE scheme which is secure against chosen-plaintext attack in the standard model (i.e., without the random oracle idealization). We then propose a bidirectional single-hop PRE scheme which is secure against chosen-ciphertext attack (CCA) in the random oracle model. Finally, we extend the bidirectional single-hop PRE scheme to obtain a CCA-secure unidirectional single-hop PRE scheme.
