    Attacking the Supersingular Isogeny Problem: From the Delfs–Galbraith algorithm to oriented graphs

    • January 23, 2026 (13:45 - 14:45)

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

    Speaker : Arthur Herlédan Le Merdy - COSIC, KU Leuven

    The threat of quantum computers motivates the introduction of new hard problems for cryptography.One promising candidate is the Isogeny problem: given two elliptic curves, compute a “nice’’ map between them, called an isogeny.In this talk, we study classical attacks on this problem, specialised to supersingular elliptic curves, on which the security of current isogeny-based cryptography relies. In[…]

    The Design and Implementation of a Virtual Firmware Monitor

    • January 30, 2026 (11:00 - 12:00)

    • Inria Centre of the University of Rennes - Room Petri/Turing

    Speaker : Charly Castes - EPFL

    Low level software is often granted high privilege, yet this need not be the case. Although vendor firmware plays a critical role in the operation and management of the machine, most of its functionality does not require unfettered access to security critical software and data. In this paper we demonstrate that vendor firmware can be safely and efficiently deprivileged, decoupling its[…]

    Verification of Rust Cryptographic Implementations with Aeneas

    • February 13, 2026 (13:45 - 14:45)

    Speaker : Aymeric Fromherz - Inria

    From secure communications to online banking, cryptography is the cornerstone of most modern secure applications. Unfortunately, cryptographic design and implementation is notoriously error-prone, with a long history of design flaws, implementation bugs, and high-profile attacks. To address this issue, several projects proposed the use of formal verification techniques to statically ensure the[…]

    Sécurité physique du mécanisme d'encapsulation de clé Classic McEliece

    • March 20, 2026 (10:00 - 11:00)

    • Inria Center of the University of Rennes - Espace de conférences

    Speaker : Brice Colombier - Laboratoire Hubert Curien, Université Jean Monnet, Saint-Étienne

    Le mécanisme d'encapsulation de clé Classic McEliece faisait partie des candidats toujours en lice au dernier tour du processus de standardisation de la cryptographie post-quantique initié par le NIST en 2016. Fondé sur les codes correcteurs d'erreurs, en particulier autour du cryptosystème de Niederreiter, sa sécurité n'a pas été fondamentalement remise en cause. Néanmoins, un aspect important du[…]

    Endomorphisms via Splittings

    • April 10, 2026 (13:45 - 14:45)

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

    Speaker : Min-Yi Shen - No Affiliation

    One of the fundamental hardness assumptions underlying isogeny-based cryptography is the problem of finding a non-trivial endomorphism of a given supersingular elliptic curve. In this talk, we show that the problem is related to the problem of finding a splitting of a principally polarised superspecial abelian surface. In particular, we provide formal security reductions and a proof-of-concept[…]
