Lattice-Based Dynamic $k$-Times Anonymous Authentication

With the development of Internet, privacy has become a close concern of users. Anonymous authentication plays an important role in privacy-preserving systems. $k$-times anonymous authentication ($k$-TAA) scheme allows members of a group to be authenticated anonymously by application providers up to $k$ times. Considering quantum computing attacks, lattice-based $k$-TAA was introduced. However, existing schemes do not support dynamically granting and revoking users. In this paper, we construct the first lattice-based dynamic $k$-TAA, which offers limited times anonymous authentication, dynamic member management, and post-quantum security. We present a concrete construction, and reduce its security to standard complexity assumptions. Notably, compared with existing lattice-based $k$-TAA, our scheme is efficient in terms of communication cost.
