Summary:Based signatures (ABS for short) allow an entity to sign messages with a fine-grained control over identity information. The signature attests not to the identity of the individual who endorsed a message, but instead to a claim regarding the attributes he/she holds. ABS has been well investigated since its introduction but little has been done on the revocation in ABS. In this paper, we divide ABS revocation as fine-grained attribute-revocation and coarse-grained user-revocation. The latter is the focus of this paper, and we present a concrete design-to address the issue of coarse-grained user-revocation in ABS without the need of any other third parties.
