Abstract
We identify a set of requirements in broadcasting messages
among a set of untrusted peers connected to an entity. We propose a
scheme for those peers to obtain messages of the entity from each other using a pull mechanism where the contacts’ identities are maintained anonymous. We propose a modification to the hierarchical identity based encryption scheme proposed by Boneh et. al where a peer can request and obtain messages of a common peer from another peer while remaining anonymous. This scheme further allows changes in group composition using public data.
