Description
Imagine the government is taking a census, and you as an individual are worried that by participating, private information about you (such as your address, age, ethnicity, etc.) may eventually be revealed when the government publishes the census data. How can the government assure you that by using an appropriate release mechanism that "sanitizes" census data, no individual's privacy will be compromised?<br/> This question has been studied for a long time in the statistics community, and more recently the computer science community has contributed the formal notion of differential privacy, which captures the idea that "no individual's data can have a large effect on the output of the release mechanism". This has been interpreted to mean that individuals should be comfortable revealing their information, since little private information is leaked. In this talk, we first give an introduction to this fast-developing area of research. We then investigate the above interpretation about the guarantees of differential privacy. We argue that the interpretation is incomplete because unless participation in the database somehow explicitly benefits the individuals, they will always refuse to participate regardless of whether the release mechanism is differentially private or not. We then show that by combining differential privacy with the notion of incentives and truthfulness from game theory, one can take (almost) any release mechanism that motivates individuals to participate and modify it so that in addition it satisfies differential privacy.

!!! Reporté !!! Encryption homomorphe sans bruit à l'aide de groupes
Speaker : Pierre Guillot - Ravel Technologies (dispo Université de Strasbourg, IRMA)
Je vais rappeler les travaux de Nuida et Ostrovski sur l'utilisation des groupes pour l'élaboration de schémas cryptographiques homomorphes. Je vais présenter nos travaux qui fournissent des encodages à la fois plus efficaces et plus généraux, et qui déterminent exactement quels groupes peuvent être utilisés. Puis je vais discuter GRAFHEN, un protocole qui utilise ces idées. Je dirai juste[…]-

MIKE: An efficient and compact NIKE Based on a Commutative Monoidal Action
Speaker : Jonathan Komada Eriksen - COSIC, KU Leuven
Robert recently described a powerful correspondence between certain (Hermitian) modules and (polarized) abelian varieties, which simultaneously generalizes both the class-group action underlying protocols such as CSIDH, and the Deuring correspondence, underlying protocols such as SQIsign. Using this correspondence, he also proposed how to construct a post-quantum NIKE, called MIKE, which, at a[…]-
