The Variant of Designated Verifier Signature Scheme with Message Recovery

In this work, we introduce a strong Designated Verifier Signature (DVS) scheme that incorporates a message recovery mechanism inspired by the concept of the Universal Designated Verifier Signature (UDVS) scheme. It is worth noting that Saeednia's strong designated verifier signature scheme fails to guarantee the privacy of the signature, making it unsuitable for certain applications such as medical record certificates or voting systems. To overcome this limitation, we extend Lee's strong designated verifier signature with a message recovery scheme to develop a universal designated verifier signature scheme. This universal designated verifier scheme is crafted to safeguard the privacy of signature holders, ensuring that only designated verifiers can authenticate the true signer and recover the messages.
