    PMNS for efficient arithmetic and small memory cost

    • June 10, 2022

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

    Speaker : Fangan Yssouf Dosso - Ecole des Mines de Saint-Etienne

    The Polynomial Modular Number System (PMNS) is an integer number system which aims to speed up arithmetic operations modulo a prime p. Such a system is defined by a tuple (p, n, g, r, E), where p, n, g and r are positive integers, E is a monic polynomial with integer coefficients, having g as a root modulo p. Most of the work done on PMNS focus on polynomials E such that E(X) = X^n – l, where l is[…]

    Syndrome Decoding in the Head – Shorter Signatures from Zero-Knowledge proofs

    • June 10, 2022

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

    Speaker : Thibauld Feneuil - CryptoExperts et Sorbonne Université

    In this talk, I will present a new zero-knowledge proof of knowledge for the syndrome decoding (SD) problem on random linear codes. Instead of using permutations like most of the existing protocols, we rely on the MPC-in-the-head paradigm in which we reduce the task of proving the low Hamming weight of the SD solution to proving some relations between specific polynomials. Specifically, we propose[…]

    Elliptic curves for SNARKs

    • September 01, 2022

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

    Speaker : Youssef El Housni - LIX

    At CANS’20, El Housni and Guillevic introduced a new 2-chain of pairing-friendly elliptic curves for recursive zero-knowledge Succinct Non-interactive ARguments of Knowledge (zk-SNARKs) made of the former BLS12-377 curve (a Barreto–Lynn–Scott curve over a 377- bit prime field) and the new BW6-761 curve (a Brezing–Weng curve of embedding degree 6 over a 761-bit prime field). First we generalise the[…]

    Divisible E-Cash from Constrained Pseudo-Random Functions

    • December 06, 2019

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

    Speaker : Olivier Sanders - Orange

    Electronic cash (e-cash) is the digital analogue of regular cash which aims at preserving users' privacy. Following Chaum's seminal work, several new features were proposed for e-cash to address the practical issues of the original primitive. Among them, divisibility has proved very useful to enable efficient storage and spendings. Unfortunately, it is also very difficult to achieve and, to date,[…]

    Post-Quantum Cryptography Hardware: Monolithic Implementations vs. Hardware-Software Co-Design

    • April 23, 2021

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

    Speaker : Markku-Juhani Saarinen - PQShield

    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[…]

    Constant time implementation of rank based cryptography

    • April 01, 2022

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

    Speaker : Nicolas Aragon - IRISA

    Since the start of the NIST standardization project for post-quantum cryptography in 2017, rank metric based cryptography is becoming more popular as an alternative to code-based cryptography in the Hamming metric.<br/> While rank based cryptography has always been competitive in terms of keys and ciphertexts sizes, the lack of maturity in the implementations of these cryptosystems made them[…]
