Abstract:
1. A verification method for an encryption operation using an encryption apparatus, a display device and a certificate dispenser to output an encryption result in response to a plain text inputted by user selection, the method comprising steps of: creating using the encryption apparatus a plurality of ciphertexts corresponding to the plain text; displaying using the display device the ciphertexts to a user; selecting via the display device one of the ciphertexts; dispensing a certificate by the certificate dispenser such that information used by the encryption apparatus during encryption is recorded on the certificate, the ciphertexts which are not selected by the user also being recorded on the certificate; creating a user-generated ciphertext via the display device; and verifying via the display device whether or not the user-generated ciphertext is identical with the user-selected ciphertext; wherein the encryption apparatus has a verification probability p, satisfying a condition 2≦p≦1.
