Cryptographic Protocols from Pairings: Proofs and Designs

现代社会已变得严重依赖信息和通信基础设施。与此同时，由于对电子商务的安全性缺乏信心，电子商务的发展正在放缓。通过提供更高的保证和增强的加密安全协议，这项研究将提高国家信息和通信基础设施的可靠性，并鼓励电子商务的增长。通过在该项目中获得的专业知识和经验，澳大利亚在信息安全研究方面的卓越地位将得到加强。对博士生和优秀生的培训将提供一个急需的、训练有素的信息安全专业人员来源。

Modern society has become critically dependent on information and communications infrastructures. At the same time, the development of e-commerce is being slowed by lack of confidence in its security. By providing increased assurance and enhanced cryptographic security protocols this research will improve the dependability of the nation's information and communications infrastructure, as well as encourage the growth of e-commerce. Through the expertise and experience gained with this project, Australia's excellence in information security research will be reinforced. The training of PhD and Honours students will provide a much needed source of highly trained information security professionals.
