Abstract

A hybrid broadcast encryption method is provided. The hybrid broadcast encryption method includes setting initialization values, generating a node secret using the initialization values; generating a private secret using the node secret; sending the node secret and the private secret; generating a broadcast message based on a revoked group; encrypting a session key using a key encryption key (KEK) which is allocated to every user group and the broadcast message; and broadcasting to every user the encrypted session key and the broadcast message.
