Abstract
The use of digital credentials is nowadays common-practice. However, the awareness of the privacy risk associated with their use has caused anonymous credentials to gain popularity over the last decade. Batina et al. showed that the self-blindable credentials from Verheul, which are intrinsically anonymous, can be efficiently implemented on smart cards. Unfortunately, the revocation of these self-blindability credentials is complicated. In this thesis we examine some existing revocation schemes and propose a new self-blindable credential scheme that uses fast revocation. We define a formal model for the anonymity and unforgeability of such a credential scheme and prove the security of our scheme in this model. Furthermore, we show that the existing self-blindable credential protocols with revocation are not anonymous.
