Abstract :
In this paper, we present an enhanced public key infrastructure (PKI) which supports identity-based cryptography (IBC). In precise, we show how to integrate IBC into PKI as well as solving the problems of user secret key revocation and the cross validation of PKI and IBC. As a proof of concept, an IBC framework is incorporated into EJBCA and the performance is reported.
