Key delivery system with signature function

Abstract

PURPOSE:To disable a person, who steals key information to try the access to a terminal but does not know secret information, to decode a cipher by combining discrimination information and secret information at the time of generating a common key. CONSTITUTION:A center 20 generates two parameters Zi and kk for a user (i) and writes them on a magnetic stripe card 19 corresponding to the user (i) and delivers this card to the user (i). Similar parameters whose subscript is changed to (k) are generated for a user (k) to deliver the card to a user (k). Users (i) and (k) read delivered magnetic stripe cards 19 from a card reader 26 and manage them as a user management file. The parameter Zk which the user (i) receives from the user (k) of the other party includes the reciprocal of an open parameter IDk and a password pwk of the terminal of the other party; and when the user (i) generates the common key, he is requested to input not only IDk of the user (k) of the other party but also a password pwi of the user (i) from a keyboard.

  1. 1
    [Claim(s)] 【特許請求の範囲】 1) Let an encryption key and a decoding key of two terminals which communicate be a common key equal to mutual, In a common key encryptosystem-ized method which enciphers correspondence with said common key and is transmitted as a cryptogram, and decodes the received cryptogram with said common key, and it receives as correspondence between said each terminal, A key information control means (2) which holds beforehand key information (3) which contains discernment information on a self-terminal, and secret information of a self-terminal as a component to each of a plurality of terminals (1), and it transmits to it before a communication start of a cryptogram (10) at a mating terminal, An input means into which discernment information on a mating terminal (5) and secret information (6) of a self-terminal are made to input before a communication start of a cryptogram (10), It changes based on information containing discernment information (5) on said mating terminal into which said key information (3) transmitted from said mating terminal before a communication start of a cryptogram (10) was inputted from said input means (4), and secret information (6) of said self-terminal. A key distribution method with a signature function having a common key generating means (7) which generates a common key (8). 1)通信を行う2つの端末の暗号化鍵と復号鍵を相互に等しい共通鍵とし、前記各端末間で通信文を前記共通鍵により暗号化して暗号文として送信し、受信した該暗号文を前記共通鍵により復号して通信文として受信する共通鍵暗号化方式において、 複数の端末(1)の各々に、 自己端末の識別情報及び自己端末の秘密情報を構成要素として含む鍵情報(3)を予め保持し、暗号文(10)の通信開始前に相手端末に転送する鍵情報制御手段(2)と、 暗号文(10)の通信開始前に相手端末の識別情報(5)と自己端末の秘密情報(6)を入力させる入力手段と、 暗号文(10)の通信開始前に前記相手端末から転送されてくる前記鍵情報(3)を前記入力手段(4)から入力された前記相手端末の識別情報(5)及び前記自己端末の秘密情報(6)を含む情報に基づいて変換して共通鍵(8)を生成する共通鍵生成手段(7)とを有することを特徴とする署名機能を持つ鍵配送方式。
