Abstract

Kundu and Bertino (VLDB 2008) recently introduced the idea of structural signatures for trees which support public redaction of subtrees (by third-party distributors) while pertaining the integrity of the remaining parts. An example is given by signed XML documents of which parts should be sanitized before being published by a distributor not holding the signing key. Kundu and Bertino also provide a construction, but fall short of providing formal security definitions and proofs. Here we revisit their work and give rigorous security models for the redactable signatures for tree-structured data, relate the notions, and give a construction that can be proven secure under standard cryptographic assumptions.

Leakage-free redactable signatures
CODASPY '12: Proceedings of the second ACM conference on Data and Application Security and Privacy

Redactable signatures for linear-structured data such as strings have already been studied in the literature. In this paper, we propose a formal security model for leakage-free redactable signatures (LFRS) that is general enough to address ...
Trapdoor Sanitizable and Redactable Signatures with Unlinkability, Invisibility and Strong Context-Hiding
Information Security and Cryptology – ICISC 2022
Abstract
In trapdoor sanitizable signatures (TSS) (ACNS’08), a signer can partially delegate its signing ability to someone. When signing a message, the signer chooses its sanitizable parts. Each signature is associated with a trapdoor, enabling any entity ...
A short redactable signature scheme using pairing

Redactable signature schemes permit deletion of arbitrary substrings of a signed document while preserving the authenticity of the remaining document. Most of known redactable signatures based on pairing have large-sized signatures and the sizes depend ...
