Research abstract
Identity-Based Encryption (IBE) has emerged as a promising cryptographic system, providing secure communications without a certificate system. We propose techniques to fold Biometrics into IBE system as the basis for the biometric key infrastructure, and several novel techniques for key pairing, certificateless methods, and threshold cryptography to enable the continuing operations of the proposed biometric key infrastructure at various command and unit levels, and under no-connectivity conditions.
