Sounds like a bad idea -- at a minimum, your encryption will be deterministic.

What are you actually trying to achieve? Usually once you understand that, you can find a protocol solving your problem already in the crypto literature.

I haven't found a simple cryptosystem in Zp or Z/nZ.

I think the solution may be something like the RSA analogs in elliptic curves. Maybe a scheme that allows the use of a common modulus for all users (RSA does not). I've read on some factoring-based cryptosystem (like Meyer-Muller or Koyama-Maurer-Okamoto-Vantone) but the cryptosystem authors say nothing about the possibility of using a common modulus, neither for good nor for bad.

Anyone has a deeper knowledge on this crypto to help me?
