Definition ∞ Batched identity encryption is a cryptographic method allowing the simultaneous encryption of multiple messages for different recipients using their public identities. This process reduces the computational overhead compared to encrypting each message individually. It provides a more efficient way to secure communications within systems where numerous users receive distinct encrypted data. The scheme optimizes resource use by grouping encryption operations.
Context ∞ Batched identity encryption holds relevance for digital asset platforms requiring secure, efficient communication among many participants. Its utility lies in reducing the processing burden for platforms that frequently send encrypted data to numerous users. Discussions involve its suitability for privacy-preserving protocols and its potential to enhance transaction confidentiality on permissioned blockchains. Further development focuses on improving its practical deployment and integration into existing digital asset frameworks.
