New uses in Symmetric Cryptography: from Cryptanalysis to Designing
Speaker : Clémence Bouvier - INRIA
New symmetric primitives are being designed to be run in abstract settings such as Multi-Party Computations (MPC) or Zero-Knowledge (ZK) proof systems. More particularly, these protocols have highlighted the need to minimize the number of multiplications performed by the primitive in large finite fields.<br/> As the number of such primitives grows, it is important to better understand the[…] -
Port Contention Goes Portable: Port Contention Side Channels in Web Browsers
Speaker : Thomas Rokicki (Univ Rennes, CNRS, IRISA)
Microarchitectural side-channel attacks can derive secrets from the execution of vulnerable programs. Their implementation in web browsers represents a considerable extension of their attack surface, as a user simply browsing a malicious website, or even a malicious third-party advertisement in a benign cross-origin isolated website, can be a victim.In this talk, we present the first CPU port[…] -
On Rejection Sampling in Lyubashevsky's Signature Scheme
Speaker : Julien Devevey - ENS de Lyon
Lyubashevsky’s signatures are based on the Fiat-Shamir with aborts paradigm, whose central ingredient is the use of rejection sampling to transform (secret-key-dependent) signature samples into samples from a secret-key-independent distribution. The choice of these two underly- ing distributions is part of the rejection sampling strategy, and various instantiations have been considered up to this[…] -
Side Channel Analysis: Instruction extraction and Information estimation
Speaker : Valence Cristiani
Side-channel usually aims at extracting cryptographic secrets from electronic devices through their physical leakages. However, these channels can leak other sensitive information. The first part of this talk will present a study of side channel-based disassembling (SCBD) that aims to recover instructions executed by a microcontroller. The main threat represented by SCBD is that it potentially[…] -
Security challenges and opportunities in emerging device technologies: a case study on flexible electronics
Speaker : Nele Mentens - KU Leuven, Belgium
While traditional chips in bulk silicon technology are widely used for reliable and highly ef?cient systems, there are applications that call for devices in other technologies. On the one hand, novel device technologies need to be re-evaluated with respect to potential threats and attacks, and how these can be faced with existing and novel security solutions and methods. On the other hand,[…] -
Traceable Constant-Size Multi-Authority Credentials
Speaker : Chloé Hébant - ENS
Many attribute-based anonymous credential (ABC) schemes have been proposed allowing a user to prove the possession of some attributes, anonymously. They became more and more practical with, for the most recent papers, a constant-size credential to show a subset of attributes issued by a unique credential issuer. However, proving possession of attributes coming from K different credential issuers[…]
