Email this article A STUDY ON THE EXISTING THRESHOLD CRYPTOGRAPHY TECHNIQUES
Abstract
Threshold cryptography in simple words is the art of splitting a secret into many bits. The secret can be recreated only by possessing more than a threshold number of bits of the secret. The information is first encrypted and distributed among a cluster of fault tolerant computers. Encryption is done using a public key and the participating parties possess the corresponding private key. Thus for asymmetric key cryptography, threshold versions of encryptions can be built. In this paper we explore the various extensions and techniques of threshold cryptography.
