A general method for deriving an identity-based public key cryptosystem from a one-way function is described. We construct both ID-based signature schemes and ID-based encryption schemes. We use a general technique which is applied to multi-signature versions of the one-time signature scheme of Lamport and to a public key encryption scheme based on a symmetric block cipher which we present. We make use of one-way functions and block designs with properties related to cover-free families to optimise the efficiency of our schemes.
