This paper designs a secure identity-based threshold signcryption scheme from the bilinear pairings. The construction is based on the recently proposed signcryption scheme of Libert and Quisquater [6]. Our scheme not only has the properties of identity-based and threshold, but also can achieve semantic security under the Decisional Bilinear Diffie-Hellman assumption. It can be proved secure against forgery under chosen message attack in the random oracle model. In the private key distribution protocol, we adopt such method that the private key associated with an identity rather than the master key is shared. In the threshold signcryption phase, we provide a new method to check the malicious members. This is the first identity-based threshold signcryption scheme that can simultaneously achieve both semantic security and others security, such as unforgeability, robustness, and non-repudiation.
