A Verifiable Multiple Secrets Sharing Scheme
He Ming · Dianzi xuebao · 2002
A new multiple secrets sharing scheme,based on the intractability of the discrete logarithm (DL) and the RSA encryption algorithm is presented,in which the participants′ shadows remain secret and can be reused,even if all subshadows are made public.Meanwhile,by using a zero knowledge proof protocol,the validity verification of shadow and subshadow is also provided to prevent both dealer cheating and other participant cheating,and any freely given secrets without pre computation by dealer can be reconstructed.The scheme can be applied to many areas such as conference key distribution,secure multi part computation,threshold signature etc.
