VERFAHREN ZUR ÜBERTRAGUNG DER BEFUGNIS, NACHRICHTEN ZU ENTSCHLÜSSELN

摘要

Methods for transferring among key holders in encoding and cryptographic systems the right to decode and decrypt messages in a way that does not explicitly reveal decoding and decrypting keys used and the original messages. Such methods are more secure and more efficient than typical re-encoding and re-encryption schemes, and are useful in developing such applications as document distribution and long-term file protection.
