In this talk, I will describe the family of authenticated encryption (with associated data) algorithms SCREAM and iSCREAM. They are based on Liskov et al.'s Tweakable Authenticated Encryption (TAE) mode with the new tweakable block ciphers Scream and iScream. The main desirable features of SCREAM and iSCREAM are:<br/> * A simple and regular design allowing excellent performances on a wide range of architectures, in particular if masking is implemented as a side-channel countermeasure;<br/> * Inheriting from TAE, security beyond the birthday bound, i.e. a 128-bit security guarantee with up to 2128 bits of data processed with the same 128-bit key;<br/> * Low overheads for the authentication mode (e.g. no extra cipher calls to generate masks);<br/> * Fully parallelisable authenticated encryption with minimal ciphertext length.<br/> In addition, iSCREAM allows compact implementations for combined encryption and decryption, by taking advantage of involutive components in its underlying cipher iScream.

    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[…]

    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

    • 05 décembre 2025 (13:45 - 14:45)

    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[…]
