Abstract

Attribute-Based Encryption (ABE) is a kind of realization of fine-grained access to encrypted data of public key encryption method, but due to a variety of users can share the decryption key, the attribute of traditional encryption mechanism cannot track leaking key malicious users, so in recent years, people study new traceable attribute based encryption schemes, supporting tracing key holders. This article analyzes the strengths and weaknesses of traceable attribute base encryption schemes from various aspects and looks into the future research.
