    Protecting security protocols against guessing attacks: towards

    • April 07, 2006

    • IRMAR - Université de Rennes - Campus Beaulieu Bat. 22, RDC, Rennes - Amphi Lebesgue

    Speaker : Mathieu Baudet - ENS Cachan

    Designing secure protocols based on passwords is a difficult task. Indeed, passwords, and more generally low-entropy secrets, are potentially vulnerable to guessing attacks, that is, exhaustive, "brute force" searches. Preventing guessing attacks typically requires a protocol to conceal any partial information on the password (e.g. its checksum) which could help the attacker confirm his guess[…]

    Theta identities and Thomae formulas

    • December 16, 2005

    • IRMAR - Université de Rennes - Campus Beaulieu Bat. 22, RDC, Rennes - Amphi Lebesgue

    Speaker : Yaacov Kopeliovich

    In this talk we apply Thomae formulas to obtain algebraic relations satisfied by Riemann surfaces that are cyclic covers of the Sphere. We focus on the genus 2 case and then give an example of a higher genus case (g=4) that was not known before. The conjectural connection of these identities as well as Thomae formulas to the moduli action of the Braid group is explained.<br/> We present a[…]

    Group Signatures for Federated Systems

    • June 02, 2006

    • IRMAR - Université de Rennes - Campus Beaulieu Bat. 22, RDC, Rennes - Amphi Lebesgue

    Speaker : Mark Manulis - Ruhr-University of Bochum

    For many mutli-party applications group signatures are important cryptographic primitives that can be used for the purpose of anonymity and privacy. In classical group signatures members of a group are able to sign messages anonymously on behalf of the group. However, there exists a designated authority, called group manager, that initializes the scheme, adds new group members, and is able to open[…]

    Constructing elliptic curves by p-adic methods

    • May 07, 2004

    • IRMAR - Université de Rennes - Campus Beaulieu Bat. 22, RDC, Rennes - Amphi Lebesgue

    Speaker : Peter Stevenhagen - University of Leiden

    We will discuss a p-adic method to construct an elliptic curve over a finite field such that the group of rational points over the base field has some prescribed order N. The method uses ideas of Couveignes-Henocq, and is being developed and improved by my PhD student Reinier Broker.

    Preuves interactives de théorèmes et développement de programmes certifiés

    • December 03, 2004

    • IRMAR - Université de Rennes - Campus Beaulieu Bat. 22, RDC, Rennes - Amphi Lebesgue

    Speaker : Pierre Castéran - LABRI

    L'exposé se veut une introduction à l'assistant de démonstration Coq, ( http://coq.inria.fr ) ainsi qu'au formalisme sur lequel se base cet outil : le Calcul des Constructions Inductives. Des exemples, empruntés aux mathématiques ou a l'algorithmique, montreront la puissance d'expression de ce formalisme.

    Principes et Mises en Oeuvre de la Cryptographie Quantique

    • June 25, 2004

    • IRMAR - Université de Rennes - Campus Beaulieu Bat. 22, RDC, Rennes - Amphi Lebesgue

    Speaker : Philippe Grangier - Laboratoire Charles Fabry de l'Institut d'Optique

    Nous présenterons les principes de la cryptographie quantique, qui a pour but de distribuer des clés secrètes dont la confidentialité est garantie par les lois de la physique (relations d'incertitude de Heisenberg, théorème de non-clonage). Nous décrirons ensuite quelques exemples de mise en oeuvre de ces techniques, en présentant une brève revue de l'état de l'art du domaine.
