Patent number: 8983064Abstract: A method of determining the integrity of a message exchanged between a pair of correspondents. The message is secured by embodying the message in a function of a public key derived from a private key selected by one of the correspondents. The method comprises first obtaining the public key. The public key is then subjected to at least one mathematical test to determine whether the public key satisfies predefined mathematical characteristics. Messages utilizing the public key are accepted if the public key satisfies the predefined mathematical characteristics.Type: GrantFiled: September 15, 2012Date of Patent: March 17, 2015Assignee: Certicom Corp.Inventors: Scott A. Vanstone, Alfred John Menezes, Minghua Qu, Donald B. Johnson

Publication number: 20140229730Abstract: A method of generating a public key in a secure digital communication system, having at least one trusted entity CA and subscriber entities A. For each entity A, the trusted entity selects a unique identity distinguishing the entity A. The trusted entity then generates a public key reconstruction public data of the entity A by mathematically combining public values obtained from respective private values of the trusted entity and the entity A. The unique identity and public key reconstruction public data of the entity A serve as A's implicit certificate. The trusted entity combines the implicit certificate information with a mathematical function to derive an entity information ƒ and generates a value kA by binding with ƒ with private values of the trusted entity. The trusted entity transmits the value kA to the entity to permit A to generate a private key from kA, A's private value and A's implicit certificate.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 21, 2014Publication date: August 14, 2014Inventors: Minghua Qu, Scott A.

Patent number: 8732467Abstract: A method for creating and authenticating a digital signature is provided, including selecting a first session parameter k and generating a first short term public key derived from the session parameter k, computing a first signature component r derived from a first mathematical function using the short term public key, selecting a second session parameter t and computing a second signature component s derived from a second mathematical function using the second session parameter t and without using an inverse operation, computing a third signature component using the first and second session parameters and sending the signature components (s, r, c) as a masked digital signature to a receiver computer system. In the receiver computer system, a recovered second signature component s? is computed by combining a third signature component with the second signature component to derive signature components (s?, r) as an unmasked digital signature.Type: GrantFiled: December 28, 2012Date of Patent: May 20, 2014Assignee: Certicom Corp.Inventors: Scott Alexander Vanstone, Donald B.
