  • On the hardness of the NTRU problem

    • October 08, 2021

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

    Speaker : Alice Pellet-Mary - CNRS, Institut Mathématiques de Bordeaux

    The NTRU problem is an algorithmic problem over structured lattices that was introduced by Hoffstein, Pipher, and Silverman more than 20 years ago, and which has been used to construct various cryptographic primitives. However, its relation to other lattice problems is still not well understood.<br/> In this talk, we will describe different variants of the NTRU problem, and study how they compare[…]
  • Rank metric cryptography and its implementations

    • October 08, 2021

    • XLIM – Université de Limoges - Salle Pétri/Turing

    Speaker : Nicolas Aragon

    In 2017, the NIST (National Institute for Standards and Technology) started astandardization process in order to select post-quantum encryption and digital signature schemes. Among the proposed solutions, two rank-metric based encryption schemes were selected for the second round of the standardization process: ROLLOand RQC.This raised questions about both the performance and the security of the[…]
  • Key recovery from partial information

    • October 01, 2021

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

    Speaker : Gabrielle De Michelli - UC San Diego

    The security of deployed protocols not only relies on the hardness of the underlying mathematical problem but also on the implementation of the algorithms involved. Many fast modular exponentiation algorithms have piled up over the years and some implementations have brought vulnerabilities that are exploitable by side-channel attacks, in particular cache attacks.<br/> In this talk, we consider[…]
  • Les cyber opérations, entre opportunités stratégiques et contraintes opérationnelles

    • October 01, 2021

    • Inria Center of the University of Rennes - - Petri/Turing room

    Speaker : Stéphane Taillat (Académie Militaire de Saint Cyr-Coëtquidan)

    Le recours aux opérations numériques et au cyberespace s’est généralisé dans la gestion des crises et des conflits internationaux. Pour autant, aucune des cyber opérations étatiques ou prêtées à des États n’ont débouché sur des conflits armés ou sur une escalade significative des tensions. A ce titre, cette conférence cherche à s’interroger sur l’utilité stratégique des opérations numériques et du[…]
  • Unique CAD-compatible SCA-security mechanisms, externally amplified coupling (EAC) attacks and (some) connection

    • June 25, 2021

    • Bar-Ilan University (BIU) - Web-Conférence

    Speaker : Itamar Levi

    In this seminar I will first discuss unique computer aided design (CAD) compatible SCA security mechanisms. I will present an approach which can significantly increase the physical security-level of a design, be implemented with conventional design-tools and which does not require any special technological-support. The method consists with a correct by-design utilization of power-management[…]
  • Post-Quantum Cryptography Hardware: Monolithic Implementations vs. Hardware-Software Co-Design

    • April 23, 2021

    • PQShield – United Kingdom - Web-Conférence

    Speaker : Markku-Juhani Saarinen

    At PQShield, we’ve developed dedicated coprocessor(s) for lattice schemes, hash-based signatures, and code-based cryptography. These cryptographic modules are commercial rather than academic and designed to meet customer specifications such as a specific performance profile or Common Criteria and FIPS security certification requirements.Hardware implementations of legacy RSA and Elliptic Curve[…]
