Abstract
In this paper two kinds of “Robust Threshold Key Escrow Schemes” are analysed systematically and many practical attacks on them, such as Subliminal Channel Attack£-Cheating Attack, etc., are provided. In the meantime, we show whether they gain their end of robustness is worth deliberating. In addition, we also discuss the necessity of some groupware of protocol and establish the basis of analysis on Key Escrow Scheme.
