Hi George,


Thanks for reading the paper!


Yes, the signatures we use in our scheme are completely unrelated to the no=
rmal operation of the log and only come into play in the event of log misbe=
havior. Ordinary log behavior can continue to use standard signatures.


The important property of the signatures we use in our scheme is the "proof=
 of knowledge of a signature." The idea is to use this proof to show that w=
e have committed values that actually correspond to objects on the log. We =
then use range proofs and other simpler zero knowledge proofs on commitment=
s to show that they fulfill the relationships required to complete the proo=
f.


thanks and let me know if you have any more questions,

~saba

Hey Saba,

Read this paper with interest. Thanks for sharing!

Am I correct that the range proof signatures are completely unrelated to no=
rmal log operation? That is, the ordinary log behavior continue to use comm=
only supported algorithms (RSA-PKCS1v15 or ECDSA) with only the intermediat=
e range values being signed to admit proofs of signatures under commitment?

Hello,

I'm on the agenda for Tuesday's meeting to share a privacy-preserving proof=
 of sct exclusion from a log (I think Eran alluded to this work in a messag=
e a while ago).

My posted slides will not include many words, so I wanted to share a link t=
o the preprint of our academic paper on the subject in case anyone wants to=
 read the details there. The paper is targeted at a somewhat different audi=
ence, but it can be found here: https://arxiv.org/abs/1703.02209

Thanks and looking forward to meeting you all next week!

Cool, but I immediately see a problem - you require logs to be in timestamp=
 order, but they aren't. I can't immediately think of a way to get that pro=
perty without also considerably increasing time to inclusion in the log.

That seems undesirable - in fact, we're trying to go the other way, i.e. re=
duce time to inclusion, in general.

Also, engineering reality doesn't change, so increasing time to inclusion i=
s also likely to increase MMD.

Secondly, its interesting, but doesn't seem particularly useful: when an SC=
T corresponds to a cert that has not been included, you want to reveal the =
cert, not hide it. What you want to hide is who is revealing it.

I'm on the agenda for Tuesday's meeting to share a privacy-preserving proof=
 of sct exclusion from a log (I think Eran alluded to this work in a messag=
e a while ago).

My posted slides will not include many words, so I wanted to share a link t=
o the preprint of our academic paper on the subject in case anyone wants to=
 read the details there. The paper is targeted at a somewhat different audi=
ence, but it can be found here:
<a href=3D"https://arxiv.org/abs/1703.02209" target=3D"_blank">https://arxi=
v.org/abs/1703.022<wbr>09</a></p>

Thanks and looking forward to meeting you all next week!</p>

<div>Cool, but I immediately see a problem - you require logs to be in time=
stamp order, but they aren't. I can't immediately think of a way to get tha=
t property without also considerably increasing time to inclusion in the lo=
g.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>That seems undesirable - in fact, we're trying to go the other way, i.=
e. reduce time to inclusion, in general.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Also, engineering reality doesn't change, so increasing time to inclus=
ion is also likely to increase MMD.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Secondly, its interesting, but doesn't seem particularly useful: when =
an SCT corresponds to a cert that has not been included, you want to reveal=
 the cert, not hide it. What you want to hide is who is revealing it.</div>
