    Julien Bringer - Sagem Sécurité

Cet exposé est basé sur des travaux communs avec Hervé Chabanne, David Pointcheval, Qiang Tang menés dans le cadre du projet ANR RNRT BACH (Biometric Authentication with Cryptographic Handling).<br/> Extended Private Information Retrieval (EPIR) is a generalization of the notion of Private Information Retrieval (PIR). The principle is to enable a user to privately evaluate a fixed and public function with two inputs, a chosen block from a database and an additional string. In this talk, we will present this notion and describe 2 constructions with applications to biometric authentication. We will then explain an extension of this notion in order to add more flexibility during the system life. As an example, we will introduce a general protocol enabling polynomial evaluations. As to practical concern, we will also discuss how amortizing database computations when dealing with several requests.

    Dilithium is a signature algorithm, considered post-quantum, and recently standardized under the name ML-DSA by NIST. Due to its security and performance, it is recommended in most use cases.   During this presentation, I will outline the main ideas behind two studies, conducted in collaboration with Andersson Calle-Vierra, Benoît Cogliati, and Louis Goubin, which provide a better understanding of[…]

    At CRYPTO 2015, Kirchner and Fouque claimed that a carefully tuned variant of the Blum-Kalai-Wasserman (BKW) algorithm (JACM 2003) should solve the Learning with Errors problem (LWE) in slightly subexponential time for modulus q = poly(n) and narrow error distribution, when given enough LWE samples. Taking a modular view, one may regard BKW as a combination of Wagner’s algorithm (CRYPTO 2002), run[…]

  • CryptoVerif: a computationally-sound security protocol verifier

    • Batiment 32B salle 12

    Orateur : 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[…]

  • Structured-Seed Local Pseudorandom Generators and their Applications

    Orateur : Nikolas Melissaris - IRIF

    We introduce structured‑seed local pseudorandom generators (SSL-PRGs), pseudorandom generators whose seed is drawn from an efficiently sampleable, structured distribution rather than uniformly. This seemingly modest relaxation turns out to capture many known applications of local PRGs, yet it can be realized from a broader family of hardness assumptions. Our main technical contribution is a[…]
