Description

    Jacques Traore - Orange Labs

Internet voting offers a better voting experience since voters can cast their votes from their computers or even smartphones. By eliminating the need to visit polling places, it may attract more voters and thus increase voter turnout. However, it is still not widely spread owing to many inherent concerns such as risks entailed by the lack of private polling booths. Indeed, this may ease coercion and vote-buying attacks. Consequently, electronic voting schemes ought to address this issue that remained a challenge for many years. In this talk, we will present a practical approach for constructing coercion-resistant and ‘end-to-end verifiable’ electronic voting protocols suitable for real elections. Our construction relies on voting credentials generated thanks to a recent algebraic Message Authentication Code (MAC) scheme due to Chase et al. To enable multiple elections and credentials revocation, we will also introduce a novel sequential aggregate MAC scheme. We will conclude our presentation with a discussion of ongoing research in the area of remote voting.

    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[…]

    Speaker : Arthur Herlédan Le Merdy - COSIC, KU Leuven

    The threat of quantum computers motivates the introduction of new hard problems for cryptography.One promising candidate is the Isogeny problem: given two elliptic curves, compute a “nice’’ map between them, called an isogeny.In this talk, we study classical attacks on this problem, specialised to supersingular elliptic curves, on which the security of current isogeny-based cryptography relies.
