    Speaker : Florian Caullery - Darkmatter

    Abstract—It is notably challenging to design an efficient and secure signature scheme based on error-correcting codes. An approach to build such signature schemes is to derive it from an identification protocol through the Fiat-Shamir transform.<br/> All such protocols based on codes must be run several rounds, since each run of the protocol allows a cheating probability of either 2/3 or 1/2. The[…]
  • Approx-SVP in Ideal Lattices with Pre-processing

    Speaker : Alice Pellet-Mary - ENS de Lyon

    Finding a short non zero vector in an Euclidean lattice is a well-studied problem which has proven useful to construct many cryptographic primitives. The current best asymptotic algorithm to find a relatively short vector in an arbitrary lattice is the BKZ algorithm. This algorithm recovers a vector which is at most $2^{n^{\alpha}}$ times larger than the shortest non zero vector in time $2^{n^{1-[…]
  • Homomorphic Signatures on Randomizable Ciphertexts

    • May 10, 2019

    Speaker : David Pointcheval - ENS

    Anonymity is a primary ingredient for our digital life. Several tools have been designed to address it such as, for authentication, blind signatures, group signatures or anonymous credentials and, for confidentiality, randomizable encryption or mix-nets.<br/> When it comes to complex electronic voting schemes, random shuffling of ciphertexts with mix-nets is the only known tool. Such mix-nets are[…]
  • Quantum security of the Fiat-Shamir transform of commit and open protocols

    • April 26, 2019

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

    Speaker : André Chailloux - INRIA

    Applying the Fiat-Shamir transform on identification schemes is one of the main ways of constructing signature schemes. While the classical security of this transformation is well understood, there are still many cases for which we do not know whether the quantum security holds or not. In this paper, we show that if we start from a commit-and-open identification scheme, where the prover first[…]
  • New candidate PRFs and their applications

    • April 12, 2019

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

    Speaker : Alain Passelègue - Inria

    In this talk, I will present new and simple candidate PRFs introduced in a recent work. In this work, we depart from the traditional approaches for building PRFs used in provable security or in applied cryptography by exploring a new space of plausible PRF candidates. Our guiding principle is to maximize simplicity while optimizing complexity measures that are relevant to advanced cryptographic[…]
