In this paper, we consider 'secure attribute based system with short ciphertext' is a tool for implementing fine-grained access control over encrypted data, and is conceptually similar to traditional access control methods such as Role-Based Access Control. However, current 'secure attribute based system with short ciphertext' schemes suffer from the issue of having long decryption keys, in which the size is linear to and dependent on the number of attributes.Ciphertext-Policy ABE (CP-ABE)

We propose a novel 'secure attribute based system with short ciphertext' scheme with constantsize decryption keys independent of the number of attributes. We found that the size can be as small as 672 bits.
