Verifiable Composition of Signature and Encryption A Comprehensive Study of the Design Paradigms

This monograph gives a thorough treatment of the celebrated compositions of signature and encryption that allow for verifiability, that is, to efficiently prove properties about the encrypted data. This study is provided in the context of two cryptographic primitives: (1) designated confirmer signat...
