Abstract

As many existing anonymous subscription systems suffer from defects(such as inflexible ordering, a large amount of client computation, and unlimited user access), this paper extended Canard et al. 's system so as to obtain a lightweight anonymous subscription system for cloud services. The construction of the new system adopted the zero-knowledge proof for proving possession of an Au-Susilo-Mu signature, improved set membership proof, and computational performance optimization techniques for bilinear operations. The new system had the following advantages over the existing schemes: allowing users to order multiple service types at one time, putting restrictions on the number of times users can access, precluding sharing of e-wallets, providing stronger privacy protection. The security analysis shows that the new system could safely realize the functionalities of anonymous subscription systems. The simulation results show that when the proved secret value varies from 50 to 1 050, the operation efficiency of users in Access protocol increases by 79.5% to 83.2% compared with similar systems.
