A Verifiable Random Function (VRF) is the public key version of a
keyed cryptographic hash. Only the holder of the secret key can
compute the hash, but anyone with the public key can verify the
correctness of the hash. VRFs are useful for preventing enumeration
of hash-based data structures. This document specifies VRF
constructions based on RSA and elliptic curves that are secure in the
cryptographic random oracle model.
This document is a product of the Crypto Forum Research Group (CFRG)
in the IRTF.
