Abstract:

In order to solve the problem of user’s identity privacy exposure in the consortium blockchain application, this paper proposed a consortium blockchain privacy protection scheme based on group signature and homomorphic encryption, which improved the single group administrator mechanism in the group signature based on the secret sharing algorithm and set multiple group administrators to keep the group private key together. Based on the homomorphic encryption algorithm, multiple group administrators worked together to generate member private keys that were known only to group members. Through comparison and analysis with existing schemes, this scheme has strong anonymity, anti-forgery, and can effectively resist the active trapping attack of group administrators. Finally, simulation experiments show that the time overhead of this scheme is within the acceptable range.

Key words: consortium blockchain, group signature, secret sharing, homomorphic encryption, privacy protection
