Abstract

Signcryption as a cryptoraphic method combines signing and encryption usually in sing then encrypt order. Verifiably encrypted signatures are used mainly for fair exchange and contract signing protocols. In this paper we propose a new scheme up to our knowledge the first that combines signcryption and verifiably encrypted signatures which we call VESigncrypt

Keywords

Verifiably Encrypted Signcryption, Contract Signing protocols, Non-Repudiation protocols, Pairing Based Cryptogra
