Description
Fully homomorphic encryption (FHE) is an encryption scheme that enables the direct execution of arbitrary computations on encrypted data. The first generation of FHE schemes began with Gentry's groundbreaking work in 2019. It relies on a technique called bootstrapping, which reduces noise in FHE ciphertexts. This construction theoretically enables the execution of any arithmetic circuit, but remains slow in practice. A second generation of FHE schemes appeared in 2015 and is referred to as fast bootstrapping schemes. One limitation of the later schemes is that they can only bootstrap one message at a time, but the bootstrapping procedure is relatively fast.
This presentation aims to highlight some works on the optimisation of Boolean and arithmetic circuits in the context of FHE. The optimisation of the so-called multiplicative depth of circuits will be discussed. The multiplicative depth is an important metric for the first generation of FHE schemes, as ciphertext size and, consequently, execution performance depend heavily on it. In a second part, we will discuss a circuit mapping problem encountered in the practical application of fast-bootstrapping schemes.

Oblivious Transfer from Zero-Knowledge Proofs (or how to achieve round-optimal quantum Oblivious Transfer without structure)
Orateur : Léo Colisson - Université Grenoble Alpes
We provide a generic construction to turn any classical Zero-Knowledge (ZK) protocol into a composable oblivious transfer (OT) protocol (the protocol itself involving quantum interactions), mostly lifting the round-complexity properties and security guarantees (plain-model/statistical security/unstructured functions…) of the ZK protocol to the resulting OT protocol. Such a construction is unlikely[…]-

La crypto-graphie et les crypto-monnaies
Orateur : Daniel Augot - INRIA Saclay—Île-de-France
De nos jours, la requête «crypto» dans un moteur de recherche renvoieaux cryptomonnaies. Mais «crypto means crypto», et on peut se poser laquestion des liens pertinents entre les deux domaines. D'un coté, le monde des cryptomonnaies et de la technologiesous-jacente s'est développé et évolue encore en dehors du mondeacadémique. Il faut suivre d'un coté des posts de blog, des fils dediscussion X[…] -
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[…]-
