    Pauline Bert - soutenance de thèse, amphi P de l'ISTIC, 14h

Lattice-based cryptography is one of the major line of research to build post-quantum public key primitives. In this thesis, we discuss about digital signatures constructions and their implementation. We first describe a Fiat-Shamir transformation from an identification scheme using rejection sampling to a digital signature secure in the random oracle model. Then we describe an identity-based encryption scheme and we prove its security in the standard model. An identity-based encryption scheme is like a classical public key where the public key is the identity of a user such as its email address or its social security number.<br/> A user contacts a third trusted party to get a secret key associated to its identity. In our construction, a secret key consists essentially in a signature of the identity of the user. We also describe this underlying digital signature scheme associated to our identity based encryption scheme.<br/> Finally, we present implementation results of these two schemes and how we choose concrete parameters.<br/> lien: rien

  • CryptoVerif: a computationally-sound security protocol verifier

    • November 28, 2025 (13:45 - 14:45)

    Speaker : Bruno Blanchet - Inria

    CryptoVerif is a security protocol verifier sound in the computational model of cryptography. It produces proofs by sequences of games, like those done manually by cryptographers. It has an automatic proof strategy and can also be guided by the user. It provides a generic method for specifying security assumptions on many cryptographic primitives, and can prove secrecy, authentication, and[…]

  • Structured-Seed Local Pseudorandom Generators and their Applications

    • December 05, 2025 (13:45 - 14:45)

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

    Speaker : Nikolas Melissaris - IRIF

    We introduce structured‑seed local pseudorandom generators (SSL-PRGs), pseudorandom generators whose seed is drawn from an efficiently sampleable, structured distribution rather than uniformly. This seemingly modest relaxation turns out to capture many known applications of local PRGs, yet it can be realized from a broader family of hardness assumptions. Our main technical contribution is a[…]

  • Post-Quantum Public-Key Pseudorandom Correlation Functions for OT

    • December 12, 2025 (13:45 - 14:45)

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

    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[…]
  • Predicting Module-Lattice Reduction

    • December 19, 2025 (13:45 - 14:45)

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

    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[…]
