    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 and an overview of its impact on the field of cryptography. In the second part, we propose a simple functional encryption scheme for the inner-product functionality that despite its simplicity can be successfully used in the context of descriptive statistics. The security of the scheme can be based on the Decisional Diffie–Hellman or the Learning with Errors assumption offering a trade-offs in terms of expressiveness and efficiency.

    Je vais rappeler les travaux de Nuida et Ostrovski sur l'utilisation des groupes pour l'élaboration de schémas cryptographiques homomorphes. Je vais présenter nos travaux qui fournissent des encodages à la fois plus efficaces et plus généraux, et qui déterminent exactement quels groupes peuvent être utilisés.   Puis je vais discuter GRAFHEN, un protocole qui utilise ces idées. Je dirai juste[…]

    Robert recently described a powerful correspondence between certain (Hermitian) modules and (polarized) abelian varieties, which simultaneously generalizes both the class-group action underlying protocols such as CSIDH, and the Deuring correspondence, underlying protocols such as SQIsign. Using this correspondence, he also proposed how to construct a post-quantum NIKE, called MIKE, which, at a[…]
