Abstract

A broadcast encryption method and a broadcast decryption method. The broadcast encryption method includes generating a message encryption key using a public key and a secret key generated by using a Strong Diffie-Hellman tuple; encrypting a message by the message encryption key; and generating a message header using a sum of a plurality of Strong Diffie-Hellman tuples corresponding to an authorized user group. Accordingly, a transmission amount and a storage amount can be reduced when a broadcast encryption message is transmitted.
