Standards related to Signcryption Technology

Signcryption techniques are now a global standard for data protection:

  1. ISO/IEC 29150, Information technology — Security techniques — Signcryption. International Organization for Standardization (ISO), December 15, 2011.
ISO29150 Standard Cover Page

The current version of the standard (ISO/IEC 29150:2011) contains four efficient signcryption mechanisms:

  1. Discrete logarithm based signcryption mechanism (DLSC)
  2. Discrete logarithm on elliptic curves based signcryption mechanism (ECDLSC)
  3. Integer factorization based signcryption mechanism (IFSC)
  4. Encrypt-then-sign based signcryption mechanism (EtS)
