Timed-release encryption allows senders to send a message to a receiver which cannot decrypt until a server releases a time bound key at the release time. The release time usually supposed to be known to the receiver, the ciphertext therefore cannot be dec ...

System and method for providing a collective decentralized authority for sharing sensitive data

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Bryan Alexander Ford, Jean Louis Raisaro, Zhicong Huang, Patricia Egger

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 ...

Provably Secure Authenticated Encryption

Damian Vizár

Authenticated Encryption (AE) is a symmetric key cryptographic primitive that ensures confidentiality and authenticity of processed messages at the same time. The research of AE as a primitive in its own right started in 2000. The security goals of AE wer ...

LPN in Cryptography

Sonia Mihaela Bogos

The security of public-key cryptography relies on well-studied hard problems, problems for which we do not have efficient algorithms. Factorization and discrete logarithm are the two most known and used hard problems. Unfortunately, they can be easily solv ...

Linking Online Misuse-Resistant Authenticated Encryption and Blockwise Attack Models

Damian Vizár

Real-world applications of authenticated encryption often require the encryption to be computable online, e.g. to compute the ith block of ciphertext after having processed the first i blocks of plaintext. A significant line of research was dedicated to id ...

In conventional authenticated-encryption (AE) schemes, the ciphertext expansion, a.k.a.stretch or tag length, is a constant or a parameter of the scheme that must be fixed per key. However, using variable-length tags per key can be desirable in practice or ...

Method for privacy-preserving medical risk test

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Amalio Telenti, Erman Ayday, Jean Louis Raisaro

A privacy-preserving method for performing a disease susceptibility test on a patient, said method comprising: (I) performing homomorphic computations, (J) obtaining a test result which is partly decrypted with a first part (prk1 resp. prk2) of a private k ...

Building Privacy-Preserving Cryptographic Credentials from Federated Online Identities

Bryan Alexander Ford, Ennan Zhai

Federated identity providers, e.g., Facebook and PayPal, offer a convenient means for authenticating users to third-party applications. Unfortunately such cross-site authentications carry privacy and tracking risks. For example, federated identity provider ...

Privacy-Preserving Photo Sharing based on a Public Key Infrastructure

Touradj Ebrahimi, Lin Yuan, David Mc Nally

A significant number of pictures are posted to social media sites or exchanged through instant messaging and cloud-based sharing services. Most social media services offer a range of access control mechanisms to protect users privacy. As it is not in the b ...
