Description
In this talk, we will sum up our recent research results concerning the introduction of a new representation for FCSRs and for LFSRs. This matrix based representation allows to construct LFSRs and FCSRs with a more compact hardware representation and a quicker diffusion while preserving the usual and proven good properties (good periods, $\ell$-sequences, good statistical behaviors, etc.). Moreover, this new approach circumvents the weaknesses of the Fibonacci and Galois representations of FCSRs. We also show how to extend the LFSRs representation to a particular LFSR case called the windmill case. LFSRs are well-known primitives used in cryptography especially for stream cipher design. However they have some drawbacks when looking at their resistance against algebraic attacks because of their linearity. In the contrary, FCSRs are inherently resistant to algebraic attacks due to the non-linearity of the update function. Using the new representation, we propose two new stream ciphers based on the so-called "ring" FCSR representation. The first proposal called F-FCSR is dedicated to hardware applications whereas the second proposal called X-FCSR is designed for software purposes but is also efficient in hardware.

Chiffrement homomorphe à l'aide des groupes après Nuida
Orateur : Pierre Guillot - Ravel Technologies/Université de strasbourg
Nuida et d'autres ont montré comment on peut obtenir un protocole de chiffrement pleinement homomorphe si l'on sait chiffrer les éléments d'un groupe G convenable, tout en sachant faire l'opération de G "en homomorphe". Les exemples étaient jusqu'à présent limités au chiffrement d'un bit à la fois, avec beaucoup d'opérations à effectuer pour "simuler" les portes logiques usuelles. Je vais[…]-

Post-Quantum Signatures from Symmetric-Key-Friendly Techniques: From MPC-in-the-Head to VOLE-in-the-Head
Orateur : Dung Bui - Northwestern University
The MPC-in-the-Head (MPCitH) paradigm turns a secure multiparty computation protocol into a zero-knowledge proof and, via Fiat–Shamir, into a signature scheme whose security relies only on symmetric-key primitives. The framework of Katz, Kolesnikov and Wang (KKW, CCS18), which moves most of the MPC work into a committed preprocessing phase that the verifier checks by opening all-but-one of the[…] -
