Abstract

In this paper, the authors propose a solution to improve the security of the digital signature scheme, this solution is implemented on two levels of digital signature scheme construction. At the first level, the authors propose a new hard problem, different from the hard problems used before, and importantly, this hard problem belongs to the class of hard problems for which there is currently no solution (except by the “brute force attack” method). At the second level, the authors propose a method to construct new digital signature algorithms based on this hard problem.
