    Functional Encryption: A novel paradigm for public-key encryption.

    • March 20, 2015

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

    Speaker : Angelo De Caro - ENS

    Whereas, in traditional public-key encryption, decryption is an all-or-nothing affair (i.e., a receiver is either able to recover the entire message using its key, or nothing), functional encryption enables fine-grained access control and computation on encrypted data, as required to protect data in the cloud.<br/> In the first part of the talk, we provide an introduction to functional encryption[…]

    Cyclic and quasi-cyclic separable Goppa codes

    • November 14, 2014

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

    Speaker : Sergey Bezzateev - Université d'État de Saint-Pétersbourg

    Overview of recent results in constructions of cyclic and quasi-cyclic Goppa codes. Classical and generalized Goppa codes are considered. Subclasses of embedded optimal quasi-cyclic Goppa codes with improvement parameters are presented.

    Disjunctions for Hash Proof Systems: New Constructions and Applications

    • April 24, 2015

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

    Speaker : Fabrice Ben Hamouda - ENS

    Hash Proof Systems were first introduced by Cramer and Shoup (Eurocrypt'02) as a tool to construct efficient chosen-ciphertext-secure encryption schemes. Since then, they have found many other applications, including password authenticated key exchange, oblivious transfer, and zero-knowledge arguments. One of the aspects that makes hash proof systems so interesting and powerful is that they can be[…]

    Learning with Errors in the Exponent

    • March 07, 2014

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

    Speaker : özgür Dagdelen - Darmstadt University

    We initiate the study of a novel class of group-theoretic intractability problems. Inspired by the theory of learning in presence of errors [Regev, STOC'05] we ask if noise in the exponent amplifies intractability. We put forth the notion of Learning with Errors in the Exponent (LWEE) and rather surprisingly show that various attractive properties known to ex- clusively hold for lattices carry[…]

    On Error Correction for Physical Unclonable Functions

    • December 12, 2014

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

    Speaker : Sven Muelich - Institute of Communications Engineering, Ulm University

    Cryptographic applications require random, unique and unpredictable keys. Since most cryptosystems need to access the key several times, it usually has to be stored permanently. This is a potential vulnerability regarding security, even if a protected memory is used as key storage. Implementing secure key generation and storage is therefore an important and challenging task which can be[…]

    Beyond the black and grey box

    • April 25, 2014

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

    Speaker : Yoni De Mulder - University of Leuven

    In the white-box attack context, i.e., the setting where an implementation of a cryptographic algorithm is executed on an untrusted open platform, the adversary has full access to the implementation and its execution environment. As a result, the adversary is much more powerful than in a traditional black-box environment in which the adversary has only access to the inputs and outputs of a[…]
