“…The scheme provides all the security properties these security properties with a saving in computation cost compared to the traditional signature-then-encryption scheme, which makes the new scheme more appropriate for environments with limited computing power. Suman Bala et.al [20] proposed an elliptic curve signcryption key management scheme for wireless sensor networks which provides forward secrecy. This scheme is intended to solve key management issue in wireless sensor networks.…”

Signcryption is a new cryptographic approach which provides authentication and encryption simultaneously in a single logical step. The aim is to reduce the cost of signature-thenencryption approach. This cost includes computational cost and communication cost. Furthermore some signcryption schemes are based on RSA while some are based on elliptic curve. This paper provides a critical review of the signcryption schemes based on elliptic curves, since signcryption schemes based on elliptic curve cryptography saves more computational time and communication cost. Also, the elliptic curve based signcryption schemes are suitable for resource constrained applications. This work explores the advantages and limitations of the different signcryption schemes based on elliptic curves. General TermsSecurity, Cryptography.

The need for Lightweight cryptography is on the rise as transition has been made from wired to wireless network. Wireless systems inherently are insecure and resource (power) constrained, to deal with these constraints, many techniques for symmetric and asymmetric cryptography are defined. One such important developement is Signcryption to achieve message confidentiality, integrity, sender and message authentication, non repudiation, forward secrecy as well as unforgeability,and public verifiability. Since Signcryption combines the signature and encryption therefore the cost is very less in comparison to those schemes based on the signature then encryption. Many signcryption schemes have been proposed based on El-Gamal, RSA and ECC till today. This paper highlights limitations of the existing ECC based schemes using signcryption. These limitations include some missing security aspects as well as high computation power requirement, more communication overhead incurred and large memory requirements. Further it proposes an efficient lightweight signcryption scheme based on HECC which fulfills all the security requirements. The scheme reduced significant amounts of computation, communication costs and Multimed Tools Appl message size as compared to existing signcryption schemes making it the good candidate for environments suffer from the resource limitation problems.

“…Motivation and Contributions: Recently Yang et al [33] pointed out that in existing authenticated encryption schemes [19][20][21][22][23][24][25][27][28][29][30][31][32] sender's signature is generated further the signature is verified on receiver side, this generation and verification of sender's signature burdened the system. They also emphasized that the signature transmitted over insecure public network may result into its illegal use.…”

Recently Yang et al. proposed an authenticated encryption scheme based on elliptic curve cryptography. The scheme reduced computation cost by excluding the construction of sender's digital signatures. Furthermore, Yang et al. presented an e-payment system based on their authenticated encryption scheme. They claimed their scheme to resist replay, man-in-middle, impersonation and identity theft attack, while providing confidentiality, authenticity, integrity and privacy protection. However, in this paper we show that Yang et al.'s both authenticated encryption scheme and e-payment system are vulnerable to impersonation attack. An attacker after acquiring the public key and identities of the participants can easily masquerade as legitimate user. Then, we presented improvements over both Yang et al.'s authenticated encryption and e-payment schemes. We analyze the security of proposed schemes using widespread automated tool ProVerif. The proposed schemes are more secure and lightweight as compared with Yang et al.'s schemes.
