The advancement of face recognition technology has delivered substantial societal advantages. However, it has also raised global privacy concerns due to the ubiquitous collection and potential misuse of individuals' facial data. This presents a notable par ...

In the framework of Impagliazzo's five worlds, a distinction is often made between two worlds, one where public-key encryption exists (Cryptomania), and one in which only one-way functions exist (MiniCrypt). However, the boundaries between these worlds can ...

Messaging between two parties and in the group setting has enjoyed widespread attention both in practice, and, more recently, from the cryptographic community. One of the main challenges in the area is constructing secure (end-to- end encrypted) and effici ...

Post-quantum cryptography is a branch of cryptography which deals with cryptographic algorithms whose hardness assumptions are not based on problems known to be solvable by a quantum computer, such as the RSA problem, factoring or discrete logarithms. This ...

Byzantine Reliable Broadcast (BRB) is a fundamental distributed computing primitive, with applications ranging from notifications to asynchronous payment systems. Motivated by practical consideration, we study Client-Server Byzantine Reliable Broadcast (CS ...

In online data-intensive (OLDI) services, each client request typically executes on multiple servers in parallel; as a result, “system hiccups”, although rare within a single server, can interfere with many client requests and cause violations of service-l ...

After ratcheting attracted attention mostly due to practical real-world protocols, recently a line of work studied ratcheting as a primitive from a theoretic point of view. Literature in this line, pursuing the strongest security of ratcheting one can hope ...

We consider the problem of secret key generation from correlated Gaussian random variables in the finite blocklength regime. Such keys could be used to encrypt communication in IoT networks, and have provable secrecy guarantees in contrast to classic crypt ...

The single-server multi-message private information retrieval with side information problem is studied for general cases. In this problem, K independent messages are stored at a single server. One user initially has M messages as side information and wants ...

In a modern data center (DC), a large majority of costs arise from energy consumption. The most popular technique used to mitigate this issue is virtualization and more precisely virtual machine (VM) consolidation. Although consolidation may increase serve ...

Most encrypted data formats leak metadata via their plaintext headers, such as format version, encryption schemes used, number of recipients who can decrypt the data, and even the recipients’ identities. This leakage can pose security and privacy risks to ...

A method of sharing private and/or sensitive data from plurality of data providers to a data user, the data user having a private key and a public key, the method comprising the steps of providing a first data set and encrypting the first data set at a ter ...

The social demand for email end-to-end encryption is barely supported by mainstream service providers. Autocrypt is a new community -driven open specification for e-mail encryption that attempts to respond to this demand. In Autocrypt the encryption keys a ...

A simple task of storing a database or transferring it to a different point via a communication channel turns far more complex as the size of the database grows large. Limited bandwidth available for transmission plays a central role in this predicament. I ...

In our daily lives, people or devices frequently need to learn their location for many reasons as some services depend on the absolute location or the proximity. The outcomes of positioning systems can have critical effects e.g., on military, emergency. Th ...

We study the problem of single-server multi-message private information retrieval with side information. One user wants to recover N out of K independent messages which are stored at a single server. The user initially possesses a subset of M messages as s ...

The booming popularity of online services is rapidly raising the demands for modern datacenters. In order to cope with data deluge, growing user bases, and tight quality of service constraints, service providers deploy massive datacenters with tens to hund ...

Cloud computing has been experiencing sharp development over the last years, leading to an increased demand for application migration to the cloud. Cloud providers, in an effort to attract more customers and earn their confidence, offer to tenants the illu ...

Multicast is proposed as a preferred communication mechanism for many power grid applications. One of the biggest challenges for multicast in smart grid is ensuring source authentication without violating the stringent time requirement. The research commun ...

Popularization of online photo sharing brings people great convenience, but has also raised concerns for privacy. Researchers proposed various approaches to enable image privacy, most of which focus on encrypting or distorting image visual content. In this ...
