Description
The McEliece cryptosystem is based on classical Goppa codes over F_2. Generalizations of the McEliece cryptosystem using Goppa codes over larger fields F_q were investigated but not found to offer advantages for small q. We showed that codes over F_31 offer advantages in key size compared to codes over F_2 while maintaining the same security level against all attacks known. However, codes over smaller fields such as F_3 were still not competitive in key size with binary codes.<br/> The "wild McEliece cryptosystem" uses wild Goppa codes over finite fields to achieve smaller public key sizes compared to the original McEliece cryptosystem. This proposal makes "larger tiny fields" attractive and bridges the gap between F_2 and F_31. We added an extra shield to the wild McEliece cryptosystem, slightly increasing key sizes but drastically increasing the pool of Goppa polynomials to choose from.

SoK: Security of the Ascon Modes
Orateur : Charlotte Lefevre - Radboud University
The Ascon authenticated encryption scheme and hash function of Dobraunig et al (Journal of Cryptology 2021) were recently selected as winner of the NIST lightweight cryptography competition. The mode underlying Ascon authenticated encryption (Ascon-AE) resembles ideas of SpongeWrap, but not quite, and various works have investigated the generic security of Ascon-AE, all covering different attack[…] -
Comprehensive Modelling of Power Noise via Gaussian Processes with Applications to True Random Number Generators
Orateur : Maciej Skorski - Laboratoire Hubert Curien
The talk examines power noise modelling through Gaussian Processes for secure True Random Number Generators. While revisiting one-sided fractional Brownian motion, we obtain novel contributions by quantifying posterior uncertainty in exact analytical form, establishing quasi-stationary properties, and developing rigorous time-frequency analysis. These results are applied to model oscillator[…]-

CryptoVerif: a computationally-sound security protocol verifier
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[…]-
