Abstract  In recent years, much attention has been focused on designing provably secure cryptographic primitives
in the presence of key leakage. Many constructions of leakage-resilient cryptographic primitives have been proposed.
However, for any polynomial time adversary, most existing leakage-resilient cryptographic primitives cannot ensure
that their outputs are random, and any polynomial time adversary can obtain a certain amount of leakage on the
secret key from the corresponding output of a cryptographic primitive. In this study, to achieve better performance,
a new construction of a chosen ciphertext attack 2 (CCA2) secure, leakage-resilient, and certificateless public-key
encryption scheme is proposed, whose security is proved based on the hardness of the classic decisional Diffie-Hellman
assumption.  According to our analysis, our method can tolerate leakage attacks on the private key.  This method
also achieves better performance because polynomial time adversaries cannot achieve leakage on the private key from
the corresponding ciphertext, and a key leakage ratio of 1/2 can be achieved.  Because of these good features, our
method may be significant in practical applications.

A leakage-resilient certificateless public key encryption scheme with CCA2 security

In recent years, much attention has been focused on designing provably secure cryptographic primitives

However, for any polynomial time adversary, most existing leakage-resilient cryptographic primitives cannot ensure

a new construction of a chosen ciphertext attack 2 (CCA2) secure, leakage-resilient, and certificateless public-key
encryption scheme is proposed, whose security is proved based on the hardness of the classic decisional Diffie-Hellman

also achieves better performance because polynomial time adversaries cannot achieve leakage on the private key from
