Abstract

EZK is a tool for generating, handling, and securing electronic bills of lading. EZK implements the cryptographic protocol suggested by Pagnoni and Visconti in (Pagnoni and Visconti, 2006), cryptographic protocol that is based on a shipper-carrier-holder model. This protocol makes use of (a) blind merchandise counts, or zero-knowledge counts, - that is, counts that do not reveal any information about the quantities actually counted, - (b) secure timestamps, and (c) digital signatures. We show how EZK generates and handles order e-BOLs and how the cryptographic techniques implemented in EZK make a number of common fraud schemes impossible.
