Abstract

Abstract  The first practical identity based encryption (IBE) scheme was published by Boneh and Franklin at Crypto 2001, based on the elliptic curve pairing. Since that time, many other IBE schemes have been published. In this paper, we describe a variant of Boneh-Franklin with a tight reduction in the random oracle model. Our new scheme is quite efficient compared to existing schemes; moreover, upgrading from Boneh-Franklin to our new scheme is straightforward. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

The article focuses on the risks in maintaining paper-based records. According to the author, the first risk is that there is no in-built disaster restoration provision, if the record is destroyed there is no back-up, unlike electronic records where records can be replicated and managed. Another danger is in the protection of the records and the disposition process itself, the author said.
