Based on Shamir’s threshold secret sharing scheme and the discrete logarithm problem, a new (t, n) threshold secret sharing scheme is proposed in this paper. In this scheme, each participant’s secret shadow is selected by the participant himself, and even the secret dealer cannot gain anything about his secret shadow. All the shadows are as short as the shared secret. Each participant can share many secrets with other partici- pants by holding only one shadow. Without extra equations and information designed for verification, each participant is able to check whether another participant provides the true information or not in the recovery phase. Unlike most of the existing schemes, it is unnecessary to maintain a secure channel between each par- ticipant and the dealer. Therefore, this scheme is very attractive, especially under the circumstances that there is no secure channel between the dealer and each participant at all. The security of this scheme is based on that of Shamir’s threshold scheme and the difficulty in solving the discrete logarithm problem. Analyses show that this scheme is a computationally secure and efficient scheme.
