%0 Journal Article %T A New Signature Scheme Based on Factoring and Discrete Logarithm Problems %A Swati Verma %A Birendra Kumar Sharma %J Journal of Modern Mathematics and Statistics %D 2012 %I %R 10.3923/jmmstat.2012.7.9 %X In 1994, He and Kiesler proposed a digital signature scheme which was based on the factoring and the discrete logarithm problem both. Same year, Shimin-Wei modiffied the He-Kiesler signature scheme. In this study, researchers propose an improvement of Shimin-Wei signature scheme based on factorization and discrete logarithm problem both with different parameters and using a collision-free one-way hash function. In the opinion, the scheme is more secure than the earlier one. %U http://www.medwellonline.net/abstract/?doi=jmmstat.2012.7.9
