Unifying Leakage Models: From Probing Attacks to Noisy Leakage

A recent trend in cryptography is to formally show the leakage resilience of cryptographic implementations in a given leakage model. One of the most prominent leakage models -- the so-called bounded leakage model -- assumes that the amount of leakage is a- ...

Automated Side-Channel Vulnerability Discovery and Hardening

Ali Galip Bayrak

In traditional cryptography, an attacker tries to infer a mathematical relationship between the inputs and outputs of a cryptosystem to recover secret information. With the advances in the theoretical basis of the cryptographic algorithms, this task became ...

Secure and Private Proofs for Location-Based Activity Summaries in Urban Areas

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Kévin Clément Huguenin, Igor Bilogrevic, Thi Van Anh Pham

Activity-based social networks, where people upload and share information about their location-based activities (e.g., the routes of their activities), are increasingly popular. Such systems, however, raise privacy and security issues: the service provider ...

Proactively Accountable Anonymous Messaging in Verdict

Bryan Alexander Ford, Henry Nathaniel Corrigan-Gibbs

Among anonymity systems, DC-nets have long held attraction for their resistance to traffic analysis attacks, but practical implementations remain vulnerable to internal disruption or “jamming” attacks, which require time-consuming detection procedures to r ...

Statistical and Algebraic Cryptanalysis of Lightweight and Ultra-Lightweight Symmetric Primitives

Pouyan Sepehrdad

Symmetric cryptographic primitives such as block and stream ciphers are the building blocks in many cryptographic protocols. Having such blocks which provide provable security against various types of attacks is often hard. On the other hand, if possible, ...

Using the Cloud to Determine Key Strengths

Arjen Lenstra, Thorsten Kleinjung

We develop a new methodology to assess cryptographic key strength using cloud computing, by calculating the true economic cost of (symmetric- or private-) key retrieval for the most common cryptographic primitives. Although the present paper gives the curr ...

A First Step Towards Automatic Application of Power Analysis Countermeasures

Paolo Ienne, Francesco Regazzoni, Philip Brisk, Ali Galip Bayrak

In cryptography, side channel attacks, such as power analysis, attempt to uncover secret information from the physical implementation of cryptosystems rather than exploiting weaknesses in the cryptographic algorithms themselves. The design and implementati ...

Coordinating Logistics Operations with Privacy Guarantees

Boi Faltings, Thomas Léauté

Several logistics service providers serve a certain number of customers, geographically spread over an area of operations. They would like to coordinate their operations so as to minimize overall cost. At the same time, they would like to keep information ...

Obfuscation for Cryptographic Purposes

Martijn Stam

Loosely speaking, an obfuscation O of a function f should satisfy two requirements: firstly, using O, it should be possible to evaluate f; secondly, O should not reveal anything about f that cannot be learnt from oracle access to f alone. Several definitio ...

Biometrics & [and] Security

Claude Barral

Since the beginning of this brand new century, and especially since the 2001 Sept 11 events in the U.S, several biometric technologies are considered mature enough to be a new tool for security. Generally associated to a personal device for privacy protect ...
