Hardware-Software Co-Designs for Microarchitectural Security
Speaker : Lesly-Ann Daniel - EURECOM
Microarchitectural optimizations, such as caches and speculative out-of-order execution, are essential for achieving high performance. However, these same mechanisms also open the door to attacks that can undermine software-enforced security policies. The current gold standard for defending against such attacks is the constant-time programming discipline, which prohibits secret-dependent control[…]-

Post-Quantum Public-Key Pseudorandom Correlation Functions for OT
Speaker : Mahshid Riahinia - ENS, CNRS
Public-Key Pseudorandom Correlation Functions (PK-PCF) are an exciting recent primitive introduced to enable fast secure computation. Despite significant advances in the group-based setting, success in the post-quantum regime has been much more limited. In this talk, I will introduce an efficient lattice-based PK-PCF for the string OT correlation. At the heart of our result lie several technical[…] -

Should I trust or should I go? A deep dive into the (not so reliable) web PKI trust model
Speaker : Romain Laborde - University of Toulouse
The padlock shown in the URL bar of our favorite web browser indicates that we are connected using a secure HTTPS connection and providing some sense of security. Unfortunately, the reality is slightly more complex. The trust model of the underlying Web PKI is invalid, making TLS a colossus with feet of clay. In this talk, we will dive into the trust model of the web PKI ecosystem to understand[…]-

Predicting Module-Lattice Reduction
Speaker : Paola de Perthuis - CWI
Is module-lattice reduction better than unstructured lattice reduction? This question was highlighted as `Q8' in the Kyber NIST standardization submission (Avanzi et al., 2021), as potentially affecting the concrete security of Kyber and other module-lattice-based schemes. Foundational works on module-lattice reduction (Lee, Pellet-Mary, Stehlé, and Wallet, ASIACRYPT 2019; Mukherjee and Stephens[…]-
