in the following way. Instead of s (random and chosen by the guardian), s 0 + s 1 is used. s 0 is chosen by the purse, and s 1 by the guardian. Specifically, it means that in the protocol above the following values are used: ag p ss = + 01 mod bm p ss = + 01 mod () rsscx q=++ 01 mod It is done in such a way that only the guardian knows s. This type of signature is sometimes referred as the randomized signature. An additional difficulty is that it needs to be impossible to trace the wallet on the basis of the guardians identity. Therefore a mechanism is needed to obscure the origin of the guardians signature key. One such mechanism was proposed in [7]. 7.2.4.2 Issuers Signature To provide payment untraceability, the signature on the coin that the purse obtains from the issuer must be blind (similarly to that described in Section 7.1.1). The purse must blind both the message and the challenge from the basic signature described earlier. The protocol steps are then as follows [7]: 1. Verifier→Signer mm p 0 1 = mod t random, 0 <<tq 2. Signer→Verifier ag pbm p s s 00 0 = mod , mod s random, 0 <<sq 3. Verifier→Signer blinded challenge ccu q 0 = / mod u random, 0 ≤<uq 4.

Similarly, after Step 3 the verifier can unblind the response r.Asinthe basic protocol, ()cHmzab= ,,, , which can be computed by the verifier only. On the other hand, if the purse generates electronic coins and wants to obtain a blind signature on the coins from the issuer, the issuer wants to be sure that the guardian has agreed to the coins. To demonstrate its agreement, the guardian signs the blinded challenge c 0 by using the randomizedbut not blindsignature protocol. Since the signature is randomized, the guardian cannot send a subliminal message to the issuer, but only z 0 . The issuer signs a blinded message m 0 only if the challenge is signed by the guardian. The protocol is a blind signature protocol as described earlier. Additionally, the signer (i.e., the issuer) is not allowed to choose s alone, but together with the purse, in much the same way as with the guardians randomized signature from the previous section. In this way the issuer cannot send a subliminal message to the guardian. The guardian can see all protocol parameters that the purse can, except s 0 . It cannot, however, send any of them to the issuer except c 0 , since the purse controls the communication with the outside world. Should the issuer ever get the guardian back and analyze the information from the signature protocols, it could see the unblinded messages and their signatures. In [8] an improvement of the protocols described so far is proposed, so that even if the issuer manages to collect the information from the guardian, it is impossible to trace the behavior of the payer. If the tamper resistance of the guardian is broken by the user, it is not possible to detect double spending just by using the protocols described above. One should additionally use a cut-and-choose mechanism, as described in Section 7.2.1, to detect double spending after it has occurred. A more efficient mechanism based on restrictive blind signatures is described in [9]. Digital Money Security 109 7.3 Protection Against Forging of Coins In general, it is quite difficult to forge traditional money. First, the notes must have special, expensive or difficult-to-reproduce physical features (e.g., special print or color). Second, the serial numbers must at least look genuine. Whether the serial numbers are actually fake can only be detected by checking at the legal money issuing authority. With digital money, physical repro- ducibility does not pose a problem. Serial numbers can be checked before spending only in online systems, but this is neither scalable nor practical. The only other option is to issue coins with serial numbers that have special mathematical properties. 7.3.1 Expensive-to-Produce Coins If it is expensive to produce low-value coins, or if it is necessary to make a large initial investment to set up coin production, coin forgery will not pay off. That is the rationale behind the MicroMint scheme by Rivest and Sha- mir [10]. Its property is that generating many coins is much cheaper per coin than generating a few coins. MicroMint is a credit-based off-line micropayment system. The basic scheme does not use public key cryptography, but only cryptographic hash functions. Specifically, a coin is represented by a hash function collision. () xx x k 12 ,,,K is a k-way hash function collision if and only if the following holds true: () () () hx hx hx k 12 ===K k-way collision h(.) is a cryptographic hash function that maps m-bit inputs () xi k i ,,,=1 K to n-bit outputs (hashsums). The validity of the coin can be verified by checking that all x-values are distinct, and that all yield the same hashsum. Approximately () 2 1mk k− / x-values must be examined (i.e., hashed) in order to obtain the first k-way collision with a probability of 50%. If those examinations are repeated c times, c k k-way collisions can be expected. In other words, it is rather expensive to find the first collision, but it becomes increasingly cheaper to find further collisions. This result is based on the birthday paradox. In order to make computing of the first collision expensive enough, it is recommended that k > 2 . For additional security, the coins should be valid only for a limited time period (e.g., a month). The broker can also define an additional validity criterion at the beginning of each validity 110 Security Fundamentals for E-Commerce period, for example, a requirement that the higher-order bits of all valid coin hashums be equal to some predetermined value. 7.4 Protection Against Stealing of Coins An obvious way to protect digital coins from being stolen through eavesdrop- ping is to use encryption. However, coins usually have a rather low nominal value (e.g., up to 1 euro). Consequently, in many cases it would be rather inefficient and expensive to use an encryption mechanism. This section describes several other mechanisms that can serve the same purpose. 7.4.1 Customized Coins Coin customization places some restrictions on who can spend a coin. A simple way to make a coin customized is to add customer identity information to it. However, it is understandable that customers sometimes prefer staying anonymous at the risk of losing some coins. In such cases the probability of stealing can be reduced by making the coin merchant-specific. 7.4.1.1 Customer-Specific and Yet Anonymous Coins The mechanism described here is from NetCash 3 [3], which is an online payment system. A coin can be customized so that it can be used only by a specific customer within a certain period of time. In addition, the mechanism preserves the customers anonymity, protects the merchant from double spending, and guarantees the customer a valid receipt or the return of the money. The corresponding protocol is illustrated in Figure 7.2. The protocol steps are denoted by 1 to 4, and CS stands for currency server. In Step 1, A sends coins to the currency server CS to obtain a coin triplet: Step 1: () E coins K E t t CS AN BBA ,,,, 1 Digital Money Security 111 CS Customer A Merchant B 1 2 3 4 Figure 7.2 NetCash protocol with customized coins. 3. See also Section 7.1.2 The message is encrypted with the currency servers public key E CS ,so only CS can read it. K AN1 is a symmetric session key that should be used by the currency server to encrypt the coin triplet sent in the reply (Table 7.1): Step 2: <>CCC XBA ,, Each coin in the triplet has the same serial number and coin value. B may spend the coin C B before time t B . If B wants to use the coin in a transaction with CS, B has to prove knowledge of the private key D B , since Bs public key E B is embedded in C B . If A decides to spend the coin with B, A sends the following message to B saying which service he is paying for (ServiceID): Step 3: () ECK K sesBB AN ServiceID,,, 2 In order to pair the coins with the connection, B retains the session key K ses . At the time the service is to be provided, B verifies that A knows K ses .B must convert the coin while it is valid (i.e., before time t B ). B is supposed to reply to the message in Step 3 with a signed receipt containing the transaction information (Amount, TransactionID) and a time stamp (TS), all encrypted with the symmetric session key K AN2 : Step 4: () () KD TS AN B Amount TransactionID 2 ,, If B does not send A a receipt, A can query the currency server and check whether B has spent the coin. If B has spent the coin, the currency server will issue a signed receipt to A specifying the coin value and Bs key. If B has not spent the coin, A can obtain a refund during the time in which C A is valid. A may spend coin C A after time t B and before time t A . If A decides not to spend the coin with () B B C but to use it in transaction with () CS C A , A has 112 Security Fundamentals for E-Commerce Table 7.1 NetCash Coin Triplet Coin May be spent by Validity period C B B Before t B C A AFrom t B to t A C X Anybody After t A to prove that it knows the private key D A , since As public key E A is embedded in C A . This key does not necessarily reveal As identity. Finally, C X is used if A does not spend the coin with B. It can be used by anyone since it has no key embedded in it. 7.4.1.2 Customer-Specific Coins Collisions MicroMint [10] proposes two different approaches for making coins customer-specific and easily verifiable by merchants. It uses no encryption at all. The main design goal was to provide cheap, reasonable security for unre- lated low-value payments. The first approach is to make a coin group-specific. A group consists of a number of users. It should not be too large, because in that case it would be possible to steal coins from one group member and sell them to another group member. The group should not be too small either, because this would require too much computing from the broker to satisfy all individual customer needs. The broker gives a customer a numerical ID and MicroMint coins (see also Section 7.3.1) satisfying the following additional condition, which can easily be checked by a merchant: () ()hxx x hID k 1 12 1 ,,,K = h(.) is a cryptographic hash function that produces short hashsums (e.g., 16-bit long). The hashsums indicate the customers group. The second approach uses a different, more complicated, type of collision. The broker gives the customer a coin () xx k 1 ,,K such that the hashsums () () () yhxyhx yhx kk 112 2 == =,,,K satisfy the following condition: () yy d ii u i+ −= 1 2mod for i = 1, 2, , k−1, where () ()dd d hID k 12 1 ,,, 'K − = for a suitable auxiliary hash function h(.). If, in addition, customer-specific coins can be spent at a specific merchant only, stealing of coins becomes even less attractive. The reason is that the merchant can easily detect that the coin has already been spent for his Digital Money Security 113 goods or services. One approach, described in [10], is to make a coin customer-specific, and then have the customer make the coin merchant- specific. Hash Function Chains PayWord [10] is a credit-based payment system: a customer establishes an account with a broker that issues a digitally signed PayWord customers certificate. Digital coins, called paywords, are customer-specific. The design goal was to minimize communication with the broker. PayWord is an off- line scheme, since the broker receives at regular time intervals (e.g., daily) only the last payword spent by each customer at each merchants. In the PayWord scheme, the coins are produced by customers, not by the broker. A customer creates a payword chain (w 1 , w 2 , , w n ) by randomly choosing the last payword w n and then computing () whw ii = +1 for in n=− −120,,,K w 0 is the root of the payword chain. When the customer wants to buy something from a merchant for the first time, he sends the root as a signed commitment to the merchant. In addition, he must send his PayWord certificate issued by a broker willing to redeem his paywords. The certificate contains the customers public key with which the signature of the commitment can be verified. The customer is not anonymous. A payment consists of a payword and its index, that is () wi i , . At first payment the customer sends () w 1 1, to the merchant. The vendor checks whether the payword is valid by computing () whw o ' = 1 . w o ' must be equal to w 0 , that is, the commitment or the root of the payword chain. At the i-th payment the customer sends () wi i , , and the merchant verifies whether () whw ii− = 1 . 7.4.1.3 Customer- and Merchant-Specific Coins Millicent [11] is a family of online micropayment protocols by Digital (1995). The customer must contact the broker online each time he wants to interact with a new merchant. The protocols are designed for purchases of 50 cents and less, that is, mostly for buying electronic information such as online newspapers, magazines, or stock prices. In the Millicent model, the broker is the most trustworthy party, since it usually represents a reputable financial institution such as a bank. If customers and merchants cooperate, they can detect when the broker is 114 Security Fundamentals for E-Commerce cheating. Customers have the possibility to complain if merchants are trying to cheat. Customers need be trusted only if they complain about service problems. The model is based on three secrets: • master_customer_secret, used to derive the customer_secret from the customer information in the scrip (see below); it is known to the merchant and the broker. • customer_secret, used to prove the ownership of the scrip; known to the broker and the customer; it can be derived by the merchant from the master_customer_secret; it is computed as h(CustomerID, mas- ter_customer_secret). • master_scrip_secret, used by the merchant to prevent tampering and counterfeiting; it is known to the merchant and the broker. In the Millicent scheme a digital coin is called scrip. A scrip has a low value and can be spent by its owner (CustomerID) at a specific merchant only, so it is both customer- and merchant-specific. A scrip consists of a scrip body and a certificate. The scrip body contains the following fields: • Merchant, value, expiration date, customer properties; • Scrip ID (unique per scrip, used to select the master_scrip_secret); • CustomerID (used to produce the customer_secret). The scrip certificate is computed as h(scrip_body, master_scrip_secret). It actually represents the scrip authentication information in the form of the MAC. A scrip has a serial number (ID) to prevent double spending. However, if the scrip is sent in the clear, it can be stolen, although it is customer- specific. For example, an eavesdropper can intercept the scrip that is returned as change by the merchant (scrip) and use it later. To prevent stealing, Milli- cent uses purchase request authentication by applying a MAC. The MAC is computed as a hashsum of the purchase request, the scrip and a secret (cus- tomer_secret) shared between the broker, the customer, and the merchant. The merchant can derive the secret from the customer information in the scrip by using another secret that is shared between the merchant and the broker (master_customer_secret). The corresponding purchase protocol goes as follows: Digital Money Security 115 Customer→Merchant: scrip, request, h(scrip, request, customer_secret); Merchant→Customer: scrip, reply, h(scrip, certificate, reply, customer_secret). This protocol has the best security-performance trade-off of all Milli- cent protocols. The change scrip (scrip) has the same CustomerID as the scrip from the customers message. This means that the same customer_secret can be used to authenticate a purchase request in which scrip is used as payment. The scrip certificate is included in the merchants response so that the customer can check which request it belongs to.
