Description
The security of quantum key distribution protocols is often defined in terms of the information an adversary obtains by measuring his system. Such definitions are fundamentally flawed because of a locking property of the accessible information: Giving the adversary a single bit of information may increase the accessible information by more than one bit. We give examples of keys that are not exposure-resilient and can thus not safely be used for one-time pad encryption, even though they satisfy a measurement-based security definition. In the second part of the talk, we discuss a universally composable security definition for cryptographic keys and show how this stronger type of security can be achieved.<br/> This is joint work with Andor Bariska, Ueli Maurer and Renato Renner.

Random lattices that are modules over the ring of integers
Speaker : Nihar Gargava - Institut de Mathématiques d'Orsay
We investigate the average number of lattice points within a ball where the lattice is chosen at random from the set of unit determinant ideal or modules lattices of some cyclotomic number field. The goal is to consider the space of such lattice as a probabilistic space and then study the distribution of lattice point counts. This is inspired by the connections of this problem to lattice-based[…]-

Schéma de signature à clé publique : Frobénius-UOV
Speaker : Gilles Macario-Rat - Orange
L'exposé présente un schéma de signature à clé publique post-quantique inspiré du schéma UOV et introduisant un nouvel outil : les formes de Frobénius. L'accent est mis sur le rôle et les propriétés des formes de Frobénius dans ce nouveau schéma : la simplicité de description, la facilité de mise en oeuvre et le gain inédit sur les tailles de signature et de clé qui bat RSA-2048 au niveau de[…] -
