Abstract: With the rise of the Internet of things, the limitations of traditional PKI certificate authentication technology have progressively emerged. Hence, identity-based public key algorithms have been proposed. In this paper, we propose a new approach to generate an identity key, named identity public key (IPK). IPK identity key generation protocol is based on SM2 elliptic curve cryptography and random matrix theory. It builds upon the concept of combined public key (CPK) and resolves the linear collusion issue of CPK as well as the authenticity verification problem of the declared public key of the simplified TF-CPK by enhancing the identity mapping approach. Another main aim of this paper is to prove the security of the IPK identity key generation protocol. Roughly speaking, we verify the security of each part of the private key and the security of the composite private key. We also increase the function and performance comparison with other schemes, such as IBC(SM9) and TF-CPK. Our scheme has the lowest computation cost, which demonstrates its rationality.
