Abstract:

In order to solve the bottleneck problem of the signing server due to the purchase of electronic products via DRM systems used by more and more users, a DRM system consisting of multiple signing servers is designed based on the principle of proxy signature, and an access granting protocol based on the system is presented. As there are multiple signing servers to share the burden, the burden on each server is lightened and the stability of the system can be guaranteed. Moreover, it is mathematically proved that the integrated security of the multi-signing server system is not less than that of the single-singing server one.

Key words: DRM system, information security, discrete logarithm, proxy signature, access granting protocol
