- Public-key broadcast encryption schemes (used in pay-TV etc.) with the capability of tracing and revoking pirated decryption keys are notoriously difficult to construct with only two previously existing schemes. This paper is significant because we discovered a generic way in which inner product functional encryption schemes could be elegantly transformed into trace-and-revoke schemes. This allows for a variety of such schemes to be developed, and we describe three in detail in the paper. They have the significant advantage over previous work of allowing tracing by untrusted parties. One of our schemes is secure against quantum attacks.
