Extractable Witness Encryption for the Homogeneous Linear Equations Problem

Witness encryption is a cryptographic primitive which encrypts a message under an instance of an NP language and decrypts the ciphertext using a witness associated with that instance. In the current state of the art, most of the witness encryption construc ...

Private Message Franking with After Opening Privacy

Iraklis Leontiadis, Serge Vaudenay

Recently Grubbs et al. [GLR17] initiated the formal study of message franking protocols. This new type of service launched by Facebook, allows the receiver in a secure messaging application to verifiably report to a third party an abusive message some send ...

Lattice-Based Blind Signatures: Short, Efficient, and Round-Optimal

Ngoc Khanh Karol Nguyen

We propose a 2-round blind signature protocol based on the random oracle heuristic and the hardness of standard lattice problems (Ring/Module-SIS/LWE and NTRU) with a signature size of 22 KB. The protocol is round-optimal and has a transcript size that can ...

Revisiting the Indifferentiability of the Sum of Permutations

Ritam Bhaumik

The sum of two n-bit pseudorandom permutations is known to behave like a pseudorandom function with n bits of security. A recent line of research has investigated the security of two public n-bit permutations and its degree of indifferentiability. Mandal e ...

Thwarting selfish and malicious behavior in wireless networks

Mario Cagalj

Security is at the core of any communication system and, in particular, of wireless (radio) networks. In this thesis, we focus on three important security aspects in the framework of wireless networks: selfish (noncooperative) behavior at the Medium Access ...

Imprecise Security: Quality and Complexity Tradeoffs for Hardware Information Flow Tracking

Paolo Ienne, Andrew James Becker

Secure hardware design is a challenging task that goes far beyond ensuring functional correctness. Important design properties such as non-interference cannot be verified on functional circuit models due to the lack of essential information (e.g., sensitiv ...

Online Authenticated-Encryption and its Nonce-Reuse Misuse-Resistance

Damian Vizár, Reza Reyhanitabar

A definition of online authenticated-encryption (OAE), call it OAE1, was given by Fleischmann, Forler, and Lucks (2012). It has become a popular definitional target because, despite allowing encryption to be online, security is supposed to be maintained ev ...
