• Introduction.- Definitions and Notations.- A Brief Background on Elliptic Curves and Pairings.- Boneh-Franklin IBE and its Variants.- Selective-Identity Model.- Security Against Adaptive Chosen Ciphertext Attacks.- IBE in Adaptive-Identity Model Without Random Oracles.- Further IBE Constructions.- IBEWithout Pairing.- Applications, Extensions and Related Primitives.- Avoiding Key Escrow.- Products and Standards.- Bibliography.- Index

From the reviews: "The book gives an overview of the most important Identity-Based Encryption (IBE) schemes. ... For most of the considered IBE methods the authors provide also proofs of security reductions. The book has an extensive bibliography and can be used as an introduction to IBE in post-graduate courses." (Jaak Henno, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1218, 2011) "This book addresses a variety of approaches to identity-based encryption (IBE), along with their constructions and security aspects. ... The book could also serve as a textbook for a course on IBE. For new researchers, the book is a good survey of IBE. Professionals who are trying to design an encryption solution will find it to be a good source on the underlying mathematics." (Maulik A. Dave, ACM Computing Reviews, July, 2012)
