Abstract

E-governance services are widespread with the Digital India drive. These services allow the confidential documents of citizens being stored with government in secured manner. Authorized users are allowed to access these documents. Currently, digital signatures are used as a means of authentication. For the purpose of improving the efficiency and transparency of the e-governance system, the task delegation can be performed. We propose the novel method of role delegation by using proxy signature scheme in forward secure manner. The proposed method is designed using elliptic curve cryptosystem (ECC) to make it suitable for portable devices.
