Abstract
In a revocable broadcast encryption scheme, the group manager can flexibly set revoked users who cannot decrypt the ciphertext. Many applications of the revocable broadcast encryption have been found in the secure cloud data sharing. An adaptively secure revocable broadcast encryption system with constant ciphertext and private key size under standard assumptions is more suitable for use in the cloud environment. Few existing revocable broadcast encryption schemes meet such a requirement. We propose a revocable broadcast encryption scheme with constant size ciphertext and private key by combining the RSA cryptographic accumulator with an efficient identity based encryption system. We prove it to be adaptively secure under standard assumptions using dual system encryption techniques.
