Secure multi-party computing often enhances efficiency by leveraging correlated randomness. Recently, Boyle et al. showcased the effectiveness of pseudorandom correlation generators (PCGs) in producing substantial correlated (pseudo)randomness, specifically for two-party random oblivious linear evaluations (OLEs). This process involves minimal interactions and subsequent local computations, enabling secure two-party computation with silent pre-processing. The methodology is extendable to N-party through programmable PCGs. However, existing programmable PCGs for OLEs face limitations, as they generate OLEs exclusively over large fields and relying on a recent divisible ring-LPN assumption lacking a robust security foundation. In this talk, I'll introduce the Quasi-Abelian Syndrome Decoding Problem, a broader interpretation of the Quasi-Cyclic decoding problem. The hardness of this new problem enables constructing programmable PCGs for OLE correlation on any field Fq (with q>2). This instantiation is resilient to attacks on the linear test framework and allows a reduction in search to decision, addressing weaknesses in previous constructions. This work is based on a joint work with Maxime Bombar, Geoffroy Couteau and Alain Couvreur.

    The problem of finding a minimal circuit to implement a given function is one of the oldest in electronics. In cryptography, the focus is on small functions, especially on S-boxes which are classically the only non-linear functions in iterated block ciphers. In this work, we propose new ad-hoc automatic tools to look for lightweight implementations of non-linear functions on up to 5 variables for[…]

    At the historical foundation of isogeny-based cryptography lies a scheme known as CRS; a key exchange protocol based on class group actions on elliptic curves. Along with more efficient variants, such as CSIDH, this framework has emerged as a powerful building block for the construction of advanced post-quantum cryptographic primitives. Unfortunately, all protocols in this line of work are[…]

    One of the fundamental hardness assumptions underlying isogeny-based cryptography is the problem of finding a non-trivial endomorphism of a given supersingular elliptic curve. In this talk, we show that the problem is related to the problem of finding a splitting of a principally polarised superspecial abelian surface. In particular, we provide formal security reductions and a proof-of-concept[…]
