A multi-recipient signcryption (MRSC) scheme possesses the functionalities of both multi-recipient public-key encryption and digital signature to ensure both integrity and confidentiality of transmitted messages. Moreover, an anonymous MRSC (AMRSC) scheme retains the functionalities of an MRSC scheme while offering privacy-preserving, namely, a recipient’s identity or public key being hidden to other recipients. In the past, numerous MRSC and AMRSC schemes based on various public-key cryptographies (i.e., public key infrastructure (PKI)-based, identity (ID)-based and certificateless (CL)) were proposed. Recently, an attacker can realize side-channel attacks to acquire partial bits of private keys participated in cryptographic computations. However, up to date, no MRSC or AMRSC scheme can resist side-channel attacks so that these schemes might suffer from such attacks and could be broken. To resist such attacks under a continual leakage model, we propose the
