Privacy and data confidentiality are today at the heart of many discussions. But such data protection should not be done at the detriment of other security aspects. In the context of network traffic, intrusion detection system becomes in particular totally blind when the traffic is encrypted, making clients again vulnerable to known threats and attacks. Reconciling security and privacy is then one of the major topics for which we should find relevant and scalable solutions that can be deployed as soon as possible. In this context, several recent papers propose to perform Deep Packet Inspection over an encrypted traffic, based on different cryptographic techniques. In this talk, we introduce the main difficulties to design such solutions and give some details about two of them.

    [CANCELLED] Perceptual hash functions identify multimedia content by mapping similar inputs to similar outputs. They are widely used for detecting copyright violations and illegal content but lack transparency, as their design details are typically kept secret. Governments are considering extending the application of these functions to Client-Side Scanning (CSS) for end-to-end encrypted services:[…]

    Sorting is a fundamental subroutine of many algorithms and as such has been studied for decades. A well-known result is the Lower Bound Theorem, which states that no comparison-based sorting algorithm can do better than O(nlog(n)) in the worst case. However, in the fifties, new sorting algorithms that do not rely on comparisons were introduced such as counting sort, which can run in linear time[…]
