ANONYMOUS EVENT ATTESTATION WITH GROUP SIGNATURES - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240297796 titled 'ANONYMOUS EVENT ATTESTATION WITH GROUP SIGNATURES
The patent application describes methods, systems, and computer media that provide attestation tokens to protect communication integrity without using stable device identifiers that could track devices or users.
- Client devices can receive anonymous certificates signifying membership in a device trustworthiness group.
- Attestation tokens can be signed anonymously with group signature schemes using the anonymous certificates.
- Client devices can include throttlers to limit the quantity of attestation tokens created.
Potential Applications: - Secure communication systems - Privacy protection for client devices - Trustworthiness verification in device groups
Problems Solved: - Preventing tracking of client devices or users - Ensuring communication integrity without stable identifiers
Benefits: - Enhanced privacy protection - Secure communication channels - Trustworthiness verification without compromising anonymity
Commercial Applications: Title: Secure Communication Systems for Privacy Protection This technology can be used in industries such as cybersecurity, IoT, and data privacy to ensure secure and private communication channels for client devices.
Prior Art: Researchers can explore group signature schemes, device trustworthiness systems, and anonymous certificate technologies for related prior art.
Frequently Updated Research: Stay updated on advancements in group signature schemes, device trustworthiness verification, and privacy protection technologies to enhance the implementation of this patent.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does this technology improve communication security without compromising user anonymity? 2. What are the potential challenges in implementing group signature schemes for attestation tokens?
Original Abstract Submitted
methods, systems, and computer media provide attestation tokens that protect the integrity of communications transmitted from client devices, while at the same time avoiding the use of stable device identifiers that could be used to track client devices or their users. in one approach, client devices can receive anonymous certificates from a device integrity computing system signifying membership in a selected device trustworthiness group, and attestation tokens can be signed anonymously with the anonymous certificates using a group signature scheme. client devices can include throttlers imposing limits on the quantity of attestation tokens created by the client device.
