Abstract: Winternitz one-time signature (OTS) plays a core role in practical hash-based digital signature schemes including SPHINCS+, one of PQC standardizations selected by NIST. This study focuses on the security mechanism of Winternitz OTS and improves the scheme by introducing a novel fingerprinting function. The proposed scheme has provable security of strongly existential unforgeability and reduces by about 10% of the computational costs for operations in Winternitz OTS. The improvement is combinable with other investigations such as WOTS+, and gives the contribution to the study of practical quantum secure digital signatures.
