商品簡介
Practitioner Martin gives professionals who want to understand and implement identity-based encryption (IBE) much more than the fundamentals, providing practical techniques and algorithms, details on how and why certain IBE systems are secure, and numerous worked examples. He explains basic mathematical concepts and properties for novices, then advances as he describes the properties of elliptic curves in cryptography, divisors and the Tate pairing, cryptography and computational complexity, cryptographic algorithms, the Cocks and Boneh-Franklin IBE techniques, Boneh-Boyen and Sakai-Kasahara IBE schemes, hierarchical IBE, master secret sharing and the art of calculating pairings. Martin supplies summaries and references for each chapter and also an appendix with useful test data. Annotation c2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
