Description
Fully homomorphic encryption (FHE) is an encryption scheme that enables the direct execution of arbitrary computations on encrypted data. The first generation of FHE schemes began with Gentry's groundbreaking work in 2019. It relies on a technique called bootstrapping, which reduces noise in FHE ciphertexts. This construction theoretically enables the execution of any arithmetic circuit, but remains slow in practice. A second generation of FHE schemes appeared in 2015 and is referred to as fast bootstrapping schemes. One limitation of the later schemes is that they can only bootstrap one message at a time, but the bootstrapping procedure is relatively fast.
This presentation aims to highlight some works on the optimisation of Boolean and arithmetic circuits in the context of FHE. The optimisation of the so-called multiplicative depth of circuits will be discussed. The multiplicative depth is an important metric for the first generation of FHE schemes, as ciphertext size and, consequently, execution performance depend heavily on it. In a second part, we will discuss a circuit mapping problem encountered in the practical application of fast-bootstrapping schemes.

Random lattices that are modules over the ring of integers
Speaker : Nihar Gargava - Institut de Mathématiques d'Orsay
We investigate the average number of lattice points within a ball where the lattice is chosen at random from the set of unit determinant ideal or modules lattices of some cyclotomic number field. The goal is to consider the space of such lattice as a probabilistic space and then study the distribution of lattice point counts. This is inspired by the connections of this problem to lattice-based[…]-

Schéma de signature à clé publique : Frobénius-UOV
Speaker : Gilles Macario-Rat - Orange
L'exposé présente un schéma de signature à clé publique post-quantique inspiré du schéma UOV et introduisant un nouvel outil : les formes de Frobénius. L'accent est mis sur le rôle et les propriétés des formes de Frobénius dans ce nouveau schéma : la simplicité de description, la facilité de mise en oeuvre et le gain inédit sur les tailles de signature et de clé qui bat RSA-2048 au niveau de[…] -
Cryptanalysis of full BEANIE
Speaker : Xavier Bonnetain - Inria
BEANIE is a tweakable block cipher recently published at ToSC aiming for memory encryption of microcontroller units. In line with this goal, it handles small plaintexts of only 32 bits and has a low latency. In this paper, we propose the first third-party analysis of the two variants of BEANIE. By carefully leveraging structural properties of the cipher and taking advantage of its distinctive[…]-
