利用冗余复制技术,BQS(Byzantine quorum system)系统在异步信道上提供了能容忍f台服务器拜占庭失效的存储服务.COCA系统和CODEX系统设计了一种结合门限签名方案和BQS系统的服务器协议,完成了TSS-BQS(threshold signature schemes-BQS)系统与普通BQS系统相比,具有更易于支持Proactive Recovery,简化客户端密钥管理和客户端通信的优点.基于相同的系统模型和信道假设,提出了一种新的服务器协议,满足TSS-BQS系统的安全要求;而且与已有协议相比,该协议只需更少的通信轮数,在读/写并发情况下执行效果更优.
Byzantine quorum systems (BQSs) provide attack-resilient storage services over asynchronous channels and tolerate f servers' Byzantine failures. COCA (Cornell online certification authority) and CODEX (COrnell Data EXchange) have designed a server protocol to implement BQSs threshold signature schemes (TSS-BQSs), which can execute proactive recovery, conveniently, and can simplify the key management and communication of clients. Under the same system model and channel assumptions, a new server protocol that satisfies the security requirements of TSS-BQS is proposed. The proposed protocol involves less rounds of communication and performs better than that of COCA/CODEX in the case of concurrent read-write operations.
