Description
In 1998, Blaze, Bleumer, and Strauss proposed a cryptographic primitive called proxy re-encryption, in which a proxy transforms - without seeing the corresponding plaintext - a ciphertext computed under Alice's public key into one that can be opened using Bob's secret key. Recently, an appropriate definition of chosen-ciphertext security and a construction fitting this model were put forth by Canetti and Hohenberger. Their system is bidirectional: the information released to divert ciphertexts from Alice to Bob can also be used to translate ciphertexts in the opposite direction. In this presentation, we will present the first construction of unidirectional proxy re-encryption scheme with chosen-ciphertext security in the standard model (i.e. without relying on the random oracle idealization), which solves a problem left open at CCS'07. Our construction is efficient and requires a reasonable complexity assumption in bilinear map groups. Like the Canetti-Hohenberger scheme, it ensures security according to a relaxed definition of chosen-ciphertext introduced by Canetti, Krawczyk and Nielsen. (joint work with Benoît Libert)

CryptoVerif: a computationally-sound security protocol verifier
Orateur : 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
Orateur : 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
Orateur : 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
Orateur : 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[…]-
