Title

Towards Attribute-Based Credentials in the Cloud

Authors

Stephan Krenn (AIT), Thomas Lorünser (AIT), Anja Salzer (AIT), and Christoph Striecks (AIT)

Abstract

Attribute-based credentials (ABCs, sometimes also anonymous credentials) are a core cryptographic building block of privacy-friendly authentication systems, allowing users to obtain credentials on attributes and prove possession of these credentials in an unlinkable fashion.
