Description
Pairing-based cryptography is popular among the cryptographic protocol researchers for its eccentric provable security. Protocol side researchers often see pairing as a black box. They often need to test the correctness of their proposal. Typically, mathematicians and cryptography engineers try to make the underlying operations of pairing-based crypto efficient. In addition, different types of pairing and pairing-friendly curves have varying pros and cons with respect to the design of protocol and parameter. All these led us to make a distributable and efficient library that will incorporate various pairing-friendly curves with the different security levels. In this talk, I will share the path we followed to make such library for all who are working directly or indirectly with pairing-based cryptography.

CryptoVerif: a computationally-sound security protocol verifier
Speaker : Bruno Blanchet - Inria
CryptoVerif is a security protocol verifier sound in the computational model of cryptography. It produces proofs by sequences of games, like those done manually by cryptographers. It has an automatic proof strategy and can also be guided by the user. It provides a generic method for specifying security assumptions on many cryptographic primitives, and can prove secrecy, authentication, and[…]-
