National bodies that are members of ISO or IEC participate in the development of International Standard

10、s through technical committees established by the respective organization to deal with particular fields of technical activity. ISO and IEC technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO and IEC

11、, also take part in the work. In the field of information technology, ISO and IEC have established a joint technical committee, ISO/IEC JTC 1. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of the joint technical committee is t

12、o prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the joint technical committee are circulated to national bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the national bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibi

There are a wide v

16、ariety of cryptographic mechanisms supporting this service, e.g. the entity authentication mechanisms specified in ISO/IEC 9798 2and the digital signature mechanisms specified in ISO/IEC 9796 1and ISO/IEC 14888. 4 Anonymous authenticated communication involves hiding the identifier of an authenticat

17、ed entity to its communicating partner and/or to a third party, while retaining the property that a verifier can reliably determine that its communication partner is authentic. Anonymous entity authentication mechanisms are designed to support such anonymous communications. The mechanisms are define

18、d as exchanges of information between entities and, where required, exchanges with a trusted third party. In an anonymous entity authentication mechanism, the entity to be authenticated (the claimant) provides evidence to a verifier that it has knowledge of a secret without revealing its identifier

19、to any unauthorized entity. That is, given complete knowledge of the messages exchanged between the parties, an unauthorized entity cannot discover the identifier of the entity being authenticated (i.e. the claimant). At the same time, an authorized verifier can obtain assurance that the claimant is

20、 authentic, i.e. that it possesses certain attributes, e.g. membership of a predefined group of entities. However, even an authorized verifier may not be authorized to learn the identifier of the entity being authenticated. Anonymous entity authentication mechanisms may permit an authorized party to

21、 perform opening, a process which enables the authorized party to learn the identity of the entity that engaged in a particular instance of the mechanism. Mechanisms which permit opening are referred to as partially anonymous entity authentication mechanisms. Anonymous entity authentication can be a

22、pplied in a range of scenarios including electronic business, electronic voting, electronic identities (such as e-driving licences, e-health IDs and e-passports), social networks, mobile payments and trusted computing. In many such services, a clients personally identifiable information (PII) is rev

23、ealed to a service provider as part of the authentication process. As a result the service provider may be in a position to use the PII for a range of purposes, not necessarily in the interests of the PII subject. One way of restricting access by service providers to PII is through the use of anonym

24、ous authentication mechanisms. Some use cases of anonymous entity authentication are described in Annex A of ISO/IEC 29191:2012. 6 ISO/IEC 20009 specifies a general model and a number of mechanisms for anonymous entity authentication. The details of the mechanisms and the contents of the authenticat

25、ion exchanges are not specified in this part of ISO/IEC 20009, but in the following parts of ISO/IEC 20009.

It is not essential that all the entities and

42、exchanges are present in every authentication mechanism. For the anonymous entity authentication mechanisms specified in the other parts of ISO/IEC 20009, for unilateral anonymous authentication, entity A is considered the claimant, and entity B is considered the verifier. For mutual anonymous authe

43、ntication, A and B each take the roles of both claimant and verifier. For unilateral-anonymous mutual authentication, A and B each take the role of both claimant and verifier; in addition, one direction of the authentication is anonymous and the other is not (for example, A verifies Bs identity and

44、B verifies that A is a member of a pre-defined group of entities). The precise role of the TTP depends on the mechanism in use. Some mechanisms may not use any trusted third parties. Alternatively, a TTP may only be involved in an offline way, e.g. by providing one or both of A and B with informatio

45、n supporting use of the mechanism prior to its use. As a third alternative, a TTP may be actively involved in the mechanism by exchanging messages with one or both parties during use of the mechanism. A TTP may also be involved in the opening or linking processes. If a TTP is involved, either offlin

46、e or online, then it must be trusted by the involved parties for the purpose of anonymous entity authentication. For anonymous entity authentication purposes, the entities generate and exchange standardised messages, called tokens. It takes the exchange of at least one token for unilateral anonymous

47、 authentication and the exchange of at least two tokens for mutual anonymous authentication. An additional pass may be needed if a challenge has to be sent to initiate the anonymous entity authentication exchange. Additional passes may be needed if a trusted third party is involved. In Figure 1 the

48、arrows indicate potential information flow. Entities A and B may directly interact with each other, directly interact with the trusted third party through B or A respectively, or use information issued by the trusted third party. The message exchanges making up an anonymous entity authentication mec

49、hanism provide evidence to the verifier that the claimant is authentic, i.e. that it possesses certain attributes, e.g. membership of a predefined group of entities. This evidence takes the form of demonstrating knowledge via cryptographic techniques of certain secret information, which only an authentic entity is entitled to possess. In addition, certain mechanisms also allow the claimant to demonstrate to the verifier that it possesses other attributes in addition to being an auth
