RFC 5091 IBCS #1 December 20071. Introduction This document provides a set of specifications for implementing identity-based encryption (IBE) systems based on bilinear pairings. Two cryptosystems are described: the IBE system proposed by Boneh and Franklin (BF) [BF], and the IBE system proposed by Boneh and Boyen (BB1) [BB1]. Fully secure and practical implementations are described for each system, comprising the core IBE algorithms as well as ancillary hybrid components used to achieve security against active attacks. These specifications are restricted to a family of supersingular elliptic curves over finite fields of large prime characteristic, referred to as "type-1" curves (seeSection 2.1). Implementations based on other types of curves currently fall outside the scope of this document. IBE is a public-key technology, but one which varies from other public-key technologies in a slight, yet significant way. In particular, IBE keys are calculated instead of being generated randomly, which leads to a different architecture for a system using IBE than for a system using other public-key technologies. An overview of these differences and how a system using IBE works is given in [IBEARCH]. Identity-based encryption (IBE) is a public-key encryption technology that allows a public key to be calculated from an identity, and the corresponding private key to be calculated from the public key. Calculation of both the public and private keys in an IBE-based system can occur as needed, resulting in just-in-time key material. This contrasts with other public-key systems [P1363], in which keys are generated randomly and distributed prior to secure communication commencing. The ability to calculate a recipient's public key, in particular, eliminates the need for the sender and receiver in an IBE-based messaging system to interact with each other, either directly or through a proxy such as a directory server, before sending secure messages. This document describes an IBE-based messaging system and how the components of the system work together. The components required for a complete IBE messaging system are the following: o a Private-key Generator (PKG). The PKG contains the cryptographic material, known as a master secret, for generating an individual's IBE private key. A PKG accepts an IBE user's private key request, and after successfully authenticating them in some way, returns the IBE private key.Boyen & Martin Informational [Page 4]
RFC 5091 IBCS #1 December 2007 o a Public Parameter Server (PPS). IBE System Parameters include publicly sharable cryptographic material, known as IBE public parameters, and policy information for the PKG. A PPS provides a well-known location for secure distribution of IBE public parameters and policy information for the IBE PKG. A logical architecture would be to have a PKG/PPS per name space, such as a DNS zone. The organization that controls the DNS zone would also control the PKG/PPS and thus the determination of which PKG/PSS to use when creating public and private keys for the organization's members. In this case the PPS URI can be uniquely created by the form of the identity that it supports. This architecture would make it clear which set of public parameters to use and where to retrieve them for a given identity. IBE-encrypted messages can use standard message formats, such as the Cryptographic Message Syntax (CMS) [CMS]. How to use IBE with CMS is described in [IBECMS]. Note that IBE algorithms are used only for encryption, so if digital signatures are required, they will need to be provided by an additional mechanism. The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in [KEYWORDS].1.1. Sending a Message That Is Encrypted Using IBE In order to send an encrypted message, an IBE user must perform the following steps: 1. Obtain the recipient's public parameters. The recipient's IBE public parameters allow the creation of unique public and private keys. A user of an IBE system is capable of calculating the public key of a recipient after he obtains the public parameters for their IBE system. Once the public parameters are obtained, IBE-encrypted messages can be sent. 2. Construct and send an IBE-encrypted message. All that is needed, in addition to the IBE public parameters, is the recipient's identity in order to generate their public key for use in encrypting messages to them. When this identity is the same as the identity that a message would be addressed to, then no more information is needed from a user to sendBoyen & Martin Informational [Page 5]
RFC 5091 IBCS #1 December 2007 someone a secure message than is needed to send them an unsecured message. This is one of the major benefits of an IBE-based secure messaging system. Examples of identities can be an individual, group, or role identifiers.1.1.1. Sender Obtains Recipient's Public Parameters The sender of a message obtains the IBE public parameters that he needs for calculating the IBE public key of the recipient from a PPS that is hosted at a well-known URI. The IBE public parameters contain all of the information that the sender needs to create an IBE-encrypted message except for the identity of the recipient. [IBEARCH] describes the URI where a PPS is located, the format of IBE public parameters, and how to obtain them. The URI from which users obtain IBE public parameters MUST be authenticated in some way; PPS servers MUST support Transport Layer Security (TLS) 1.1 [TLS] to satisfy this requirement and MUST verify that the subject name in the server certificate matches the URI of the PPS. [IBEARCH] also describes the way in which identity formats are defined and a minimum interoperable format that all PPSs and PKGs MUST support. This step is shown below in Figure 1. IBE Public Parameter Request -----------------------------> Sender PPS <----------------------------- IBE Public Parameters Figure 1. Requesting IBE Public Parameters The sender of an IBE-encrypted message selects the PPS and corresponding PKG based on his local security policy. Different PPSs may provide public parameters that specify different IBE algorithms or different key strengths, for example, or require the use of PKGs that require different levels of authentication before granting IBE private keys.1.1.2. Construct and Send an IBE-Encrypted Message To IBE-encrypt a message, the sender chooses a content encryption key (CEK) and uses it to encrypt his message and then encrypts the CEK with the recipient's IBE public key (for example, as described in [CMS]). This operation is shown below in Figure 2. This document describes the algorithms needed to implement two forms of IBE. [IBECMS] describes how to use the Cryptographic Message Syntax (CMS) to encapsulate the encrypted message along with the IBE information that the recipient needs to decrypt the message.Boyen & Martin Informational [Page 6]
RFC 5091 IBCS #1 December 2007 CEK ----> Sender ----> IBE-encrypted CEK ^ | | Recipient's Identity and IBE Public Parameters Figure 2. Using an IBE Public-Key Algorithm to Encrypt1.2. Receiving and Viewing an IBE-Encrypted Message In order to read an encrypted message, a recipient of an IBE-encrypted message parses the message (for example, as described in [IBECMS]). This gives him the URI he needs to obtain the IBE public parameters required to perform IBE calculations as well as the identity that was used to encrypt the message. Next, the recipient must carry out the following steps: 1. Obtain the recipient's public parameters. An IBE system's public parameters allow it to uniquely create public and private keys. The recipient of an IBE-encrypted message can decrypt an IBE-encrypted message if he has both the IBE public parameters and the necessary IBE private key. The PPS can also provide the URI of the PKG where the recipient of an IBE-encrypted message can obtain the IBE private keys. 2. Obtain the IBE private key from the PKG. To decrypt an IBE-encrypted message, in addition to the IBE public parameters, the recipient needs to obtain the private key that corresponds to the public key that the sender used. The IBE private key is obtained after successfully authenticating to a private key generator (PKG), a trusted third party that calculates private keys for users. The recipient receives the IBE private key over an HTTPS connection. The URI of a PKG MUST be authenticated in some way; PKG servers MUST support TLS 1.1 [TLS] to satisfy this requirement. 3. Decrypt the IBE-encrypted message. The IBE private key decrypts the CEK, which is then used to decrypt encrypted message.Boyen & Martin Informational [Page 7]
RFC 5091 IBCS #1 December 2007 The PKG may allow users other than the intended recipient to receive some IBE private keys. Giving a mail filtering appliance permission to obtain IBE private keys on behalf of users, for example, can allow the appliance to decrypt and scan encrypted messages for viruses or other malicious features.1.2.1. Recipient Obtains Public Parameters from PPS Before he can perform any IBE calculations related to the message that he has received, the recipient of an IBE-encrypted message needs to obtain the IBE public parameters that were used in the encryption operation. This operation is shown below in Figure 3. IBE Public Parameter Request -----------------------------> Recipient PPS <----------------------------- IBE Public Parameters Figure 3. Requesting IBE Public Parameters1.2.2. Recipient Obtains IBE Private Key from PKG To obtain an IBE private key, the recipient of an IBE-encrypted message provides the IBE public key used to encrypt the message and their authentication credentials to a PKG and requests the private key that corresponds to the IBE public key.Section 4 of this document defines the protocol for communicating with a PKG as well as a minimum interoperable way to authenticate to a PKG that all IBE implementations MUST support. Because the security of IBE private keys is vital to the overall security of an IBE system, IBE private keys MUST be transported to recipients over a secure protocol. PKGs MUST support TLS 1.1 [TLS] for transport of IBE private keys. This operation is shown below in Figure 4.

RFC 5091 IBCS #1 December 20071.2.3. Recipient Decrypts IBE-Encrypted Message After obtaining the necessary IBE private key, the recipient uses that IBE private key, and the corresponding IBE public parameters, to decrypt the CEK. This operation is shown below in Figure 5. He then uses the CEK to decrypt the encrypted message content (for example, as specified in [IBECMS]).

Notation This section summarizes the notions and definitions regarding identity-based cryptosystems on elliptic curves. The reader is referred to [ECC] for the mathematical background and to [BF], [IBEARCH] regarding all notions pertaining to identity-based encryption. F_p denotes finite field of prime characteristic p; F_p^2 denotes its extension field of degree 2. Let E/F_p: y^2 = x^3 + a * x + b be an elliptic curve over F_p. For an extension of degree 2, the curve E/F_p defines a group (E(F_p^2), +), which is the additive group of points of affine coordinates (x, y) in (F_p^2)^2 satisfying the curve equation over F_p^2, with null element, or point at infinity, denoted as 0. Let q be a prime such that E(F_p) has a cyclic subgroup G1' of order q. Let G1'' be a cyclic subgroup of E(F_p^2) of order q, and G2 be a cyclic subgroup of (F_p^2)* of order p. Under these conditions, a mathematical construction known as the Tate pairing provides an efficiently computable map e: G1' x G1'' -> G2 that is linear in both arguments and believed hard to invert [BF]. If an efficiently computable non-rational endomorphism phi: G1' ->Boyen & Martin Informational [Page 9]
RFC 5091 IBCS #1 December 2007 G1'' is available for the selected elliptic curve on which the Tate pairing is computed, then we can construct a function e': G1' x G1'' -> G2, defined as e'(A, B) = e(A, phi(B)), called the modified Tate pairing. We generically call a pairing either the Tate pairing e or the modified Tate pairing e', depending on the chosen elliptic curve used in a particular implementation. The following additional notation is used throughout this document. p - A 512-bit to 7680-bit prime, which is the order of the finite field F_p. F_p - The base finite field of order p over which the elliptic curve of interest E/F_p is defined. #G - The size of the set G. F* - The multiplicative group of the non-zero elements in the field F; e.g., (F_p)* is the multiplicative group of the finite field F_p. E/F_p - The equation of an elliptic curve over the field F_p, which, when p is neither 2 nor 3, is of the form E/F_p: y^2 = x^3 + a * x + b, for specified a, b in F_p. 0 - The null element of any additive group of points on an elliptic curve, also called the point at infinity. E(F_p) - The additive group of points of affine coordinates (x, y), with x, y in F_p, that satisfy the curve equation E/F_p, including the point at infinity 0. q - A 160-bit to 512-bit prime that is the order of the cyclic subgroup of interest in E(F_p). k - The embedding degree of the cyclic subgroup of order q in E(F_p). For type-1 curves this is always equal to 2. F_p^2 - The extension field of degree 2 of the field F_p. E(F_p^2) - The group of points of affine coordinates in F_p^2 satisfying the curve equation E/F_p, including the point at infinity 0. Z_p - The additive group of integers modulo p. lg - The base 2 logarithm function, so that 2^lg(x) = x. The term "object identifier" will be abbreviated "OID."Boyen & Martin Informational [Page 10]
RFC 5091 IBCS #1 December 2007 A Solinas prime is a prime of the form 2^a (+/-) 2^b (+/-) 1. The following conventions are assumed for curve operations. Point addition - If A and B are two points on a curve E, their sum is denoted as A + B. Point multiplication - If A is a point on a curve, and n an integer, the result of adding A to itself a total of n times is denoted [n]A. The following class of elliptic curves is exclusively considered for pairing operations in the present version of this document, which are referred to as "type-1" curves. Type-1 curves - The class of curves of type-1 is defined as the class of all elliptic curves of equation E/F_p: y^2 = x^3 + 1 for all primes p congruent to 11 modulo 12. This class forms a subclass of the class of supersingular curves. These curves satisfy #E(F_p) = p + 1, and the p points (x, y) in E(F_p) \ {0} have the property that x = (y^2 - 1)^(1/3) (mod p). Type-1 curves always have an embedding degree k = 2. Groups of points on type-1 curves are plentiful and easy to construct by random selection of a prime p of the appropriate form. Therefore, rather than to standardize upon a small set of common values of p, it is henceforth assumed that all type-1 curves are freshly generated at random for the given cryptographic application (an example of such generation will be given in Algorithm 5.1.2 (BFsetup1) or Algorithm 6.1.2 (BBsetup1)). Implementations based on different classes of curves are currently unsupported. We assume that the following concrete representations of mathematical objects are used. Base field elements - The p elements of the base field F_p are represented directly using the integers from 0 to p - 1. Extension field elements - The p^2 elements of the extension field F_p^2 are represented as ordered pairs of elements of F_p. An ordered pair (a_0, a_1) is interpreted as the complex number a_0 + a_1 * i, where i^2 = -1. This allows operations on elements of F_p^2 to be implemented as follows. Suppose that a = (a_0, a_1) and b = (b_0, b_1) are elements of F_p^2. Then a + b = ((a_0 + b_0)(mod p), (a_1 + b_1)(mod p)) and a * b = ((a_1 * b_1 - a_0 * b_0)(mod p), (a_1 * b_0 + a_0 * b_1)(mod p)).Boyen & Martin Informational [Page 11]
RFC 5091 IBCS #1 December 2007 Elliptic curve points - Points in E(F_p^2) with the point P = (x, y) in F_p^2 x F_p^2 satisfying the curve equation E/F_p. Points not equal to 0 are internally represented using the affine coordinates (x, y), where x and y are elements of F_p^2.2.2. Definitions The following terminology is used to describe an IBE system. Public parameters - The public parameters are a set of common, system-wide parameters generated and published by the private key generator (PKG). Master secret - The master secret is the master key generated and privately kept by the key server and used to generate the private keys of the users. Identity - An identity is an arbitrary string, usually a human-readable unambiguous designator of a system user, possibly augmented with a time stamp and other attributes. Public key - A public key is a string that is algorithmically derived from an identity. The derivation may be performed by anyone, autonomously. Private key - A private key is issued by the key server to correspond to a given identity (and the public key that derives from it) under the published set of public parameters. Plaintext - Plaintext is an unencrypted representation, or in the clear, of any block of data to be transmitted securely. For the present purposes, plaintexts are typically session keys, or sets of session keys, for further symmetric encryption and authentication purposes. Ciphertext - Ciphertext is an encrypted representation of any block of data, including plaintext, to be transmitted securely.3. Basic Elliptic Curve Algorithms This section describes algorithms for performing all needed basic arithmetic operations on elliptic curves. The presentation is specialized to the type of curves under consideration for simplicity of implementation. General algorithms may be found in [ECC].Boyen & Martin Informational [Page 12]

Ratio of Bilinear Pairings4.6.1. Ratio of Regular or Modified Tate Pairings PairingRatio(E, p, q, A, B, C, D) takes four points as input and computes the ratio of the two bilinear pairings, Pairing(E, p, q, A, B) / Pairing(E, p, q, C, D), or, equivalently, the product, Pairing(E, p, q, A, B) * Pairing(E, p, q, C, -D). On type-1 curves, all four points are of order q in E(F_p), and the result is an element of order q in the extension field F_p^2 . The motivation for this algorithm is that the ratio of two pairings can be calculated more efficiently than by computing each pairing separately and dividing one into the other, since certain calculations that would normally appear in each of the two pairings can be combined and carried out at once. Such calculations include the repeated doublings in steps 2(a)i, 2(a)ii, 3(a)i, and 3(a)ii of Algorithm 3.5.2 (TateMillerSolinas), as well as the final exponentiation in step 6(a) of Algorithm 3.5.2 (TateMillerSolinas).

RFC 5091 IBCS #1 December 20079. Security Considerations This document describes cryptographic algorithms. We assume that the security provided by such algorithms depends entirely on the secrecy of the relevant private key, and for an adversary to defeat the security provided by the algorithms, he will need to perform computationally-intensive cryptanalytic attacks to recover the private key. We assume that users of the algorithms described in this document will require one of five levels of cryptographic strength: the equivalent of 80 bits, 112 bits, 128 bits, 192 bits or, 256 bits. The 80-bit level is suitable for legacy applications and SHOULD NOT be used to protect information whose useful life extends past the year 2010. The 112-bit level is suitable for use in key transport of Triple-DES keys and should be adequate to protect information whose useful life extends up to the year 2030. The 128-bit levels and higher are suitable for use in the transport of Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) keys of the corresponding length or less and are adequate to protect information whose useful life extends past the year 2030. Table 1 summarizes the security parameters for the BF and BB1 algorithms that will attain these levels of security. In this table, |p| represents the number of bits in a prime number p, and |q| represents the number of bits in a subprime q. This table assumes that a Type-1 supersingular curve is used. Bits of Security |p| |q| 80 512 160 112 1024 224 128 1536 256 192 3840 384 256 7680 512 Table 1: Sizes of BF and BB1 Parameters Required to Attain Standard Levels of Bit Security [SP800-57]. If an IBE key is used to transport a symmetric key that provides more bits of security than the bit strength of the IBE key, users should understand that the security of the system is then limited by the strength of the weaker IBE key. So if an IBE key that provides 112 bits of security is used to transport a 128-bit AES key, then the security provided is limited by the 112 bits of security of the IBE key.Boyen & Martin Informational [Page 58]
RFC 5091 IBCS #1 December 2007 Note that this document specifies the use of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) hashing algorithms [SHA] to hash identities to either a point on an elliptic curve or an integer. Recent attacks on SHA-1 [SHA] have discovered ways to find collisions with less work than the expected 2^80 hashes required based on the size of the output of the hash function alone. If an attacker can find a collision, then they could use the colliding preimages to create two identities that have the same IBE private key. The practical use of such a SHA-1 [SHA] collision is extremely unlikely, however. Identities are typically not random strings like the preimages of a hash collision would be. In particular, this is true if IBE is used as described in [IBECMS], in which components of an identity are defined to be an e-mail address, a validity period, and a URI. In this case, the unpredictable results of a collision are extremely unlikely to fit the format of a valid identity, and thus, are of no use to an attacker. Any protocol using IBE MUST define an identity in a way that makes collisions in a hash function essentially useless to an attacker. Because random strings are rarely used as identities, this requirement should not be unduly difficult to fulfill. The randomness of the random values that are required by the cryptographic algorithms is vital to the security provided by the algorithms. Any implementation of these algorithms MUST use a source of random values that provides an adequate level of security. Appropriate algorithms to generate such values include [FIPS186-2] and [X9.62]. This will ensure that the random values used to mask plaintext messages in Sections5.4 and6.4 are not reused with a significant probability. The strength of a system using the algorithms described in this document relies on the strength of the mechanism used to authenticate a user requesting a private key from a PKG, as described in step 2 ofSection 1.2 of this document. This is analogous to the way in which the strength of a system using digital certificates [X.509] is limited by the strength of the authentication required of users before certificates are granted to them. In either case, a weak mechanism for authenticating users will result in a weak system that relies on the technology. A system that uses the algorithms described in this document MUST require users to authenticate in a way that is suitably strong, particularly if IBE private keys will be used for authentication. Note that IBE systems have different properties than other asymmetric cryptographic schemes when it comes to key recovery. If a master secret is maintained on a secure PKG, then the PKG and anyBoyen & Martin Informational [Page 59]
RFC 5091 IBCS #1 December 2007 administrator with the appropriate level of access will be able to create arbitrary private keys, so that controls around such administrators and logging of all actions performed by such administrators SHOULD be part of a functioning IBE system. On the other hand, it is also possible to create IBE private keys using a master secret and to then destroy the master secret, making any key recovery impossible. If this property is not desired, an administrator of an IBE system SHOULD require that the format of the identity used by the system contain a component that is short-lived. The format of identity that is defined in [IBECMS], for example, contains information about the time period of validity of the key that will be calculated from the identity. Such an identity can easily be changed to allow the rekeying of users if their IBE private key is somehow compromised.10.
