Abstract

We propose new multi-show anonymous attribute-based credential system that is provably secure in the standard model under the $q$-SDH assumption. The corresponding proof system incorporates efficient show proofs for logical statements \textsf{AND}, \textsf{OR} and \textsf{NOT}. Each statement requires only a constant number of bilinear pairing operations by the verifier and none by the prover. The system is based on the pairing-based Camenisch-Lysyanskaya signature scheme and offers a novel efficient attribute encoding method which is of independent interest.
