2. Outline
• CPK cryptosystem overview
• CPK Message Syntax
• CPK in Solaris Cryptographic Framework
• CPK in Solaris Key Management Framework
• CPK Code Signing in Solaris
• Other Applications

3. CPK Cryptosystem
• CPK: Combined Public Key
• What is CPK?
❖ At first, it is a key management scheme
❖ Second, it provides identity based encryption
and and signature scheme.
• Comparison with PKI

4. Map an Identity to Key Pair

5. Identity Based Encryption
CPK_Encrypt(Plaintext, ID, PublicMatrix) {
Indexes = H(ID);
ECPublicKey = Map(Indexes, PublicMatrix);
Ciphertext = ECEncrypt(Plaintext, ECPublicKey);
return Ciphertext;
}
CPK_Decrypt(Plaintext, ECPrivateKey) {
Plaintext = ECEncrypt(Plaintext, ECPublicKey);
return Ciphertext;
}

6. CPK Message Syntax

7. CPK Objects
• Public system parameters public matrix
• Master secret : private matrix
• User’s private key
• User’s user’s identifier Object
Private Public Private
Identifier
Matrix Matrix Key

8. CPK Cryptographic Messages
• Signature
• Public key encrypted session key.
• Signed data
• Public key encrypted data.
• Signed and public key encrypted data.

9. PKCS #7 General Syntax: ContentInfo
specified by an Object Identifier,
ContentInfo
which is a global unique identifier.
content type
content the format of content is explicitly
defined by the “content type”.
The content type options include:
•data
•signedData
•encryptedData
•envelopedData
•signedAndEnvelopedData

10. PKCS #7 Raw Data

SignerInfos
for CPK

15. PKCS #7 SignerInfo
SignerInfo
Specify the signer. In PKI this field
version specify signer’s certificate, in CPK
this field specify signer’s CPK
signer’s id Identity.
digest algorithm
for example, the date and time of
the signing.
signed attributes
sign algorithm
for exampel, ECDSA with SHA1
signature signing algorithm
unsigned attributes

16. PKCS #7 SignedAndEnvelopedData

17. Data Types Presentation and Encoding
• ASN.1
• BER
• DER

28. CPK in Solaris Key Management Framework

29. Solaris Key Management Framework
• Centralized key storage and management
framework.
• Support PKI programing interfaces

30. OS without Centralized Key Management
• Every applications must have there own
cryptography implementations and key
management and storage mechanisms.
