GIFT: A Small Present Towards Reaching the Limit of Lightweight Encryption

Subhadeep Banik

In this article, we revisit the design strategy of PRESENT, leveraging all the advances provided by the research community in construction and cryptanalysis since its publication, to push the design up to its limits. We obtain an improved version, named GI ...

Instruction Set Extensions for Secure Applications

Paolo Ienne, Francesco Regazzoni

The main goal of this paper is to expose the community to past achievements and future possible uses of Instruction Set Extension (ISE) in security applications. Processor customization has proven to be an effective way for achieving high performance with ...

Efficient Ephemeral Elliptic Curve Cryptographic Keys

Arjen Lenstra, Andrea Miele

We show how any pair of authenticated users can on-the-fly agree on an elliptic curve group that is unique to their communication session, unpredictable to outside observers, and secure against known attacks. Our proposal is suitable for deployment on cons ...

Automatic Application of Power Analysis Countermeasures

Paolo Ienne, Francesco Regazzoni, Ali Galip Bayrak, Philip Brisk, David Novo Bruna

We introduce a compiler that automatically inserts software countermeasures to protect cryptographic algorithms against power-based side-channel attacks. The compiler first estimates which instruction instances leak the most information through side-channe ...

Bringing Theory Closer to Practice in Post-quantum and Leakage-resilient Cryptography

Alexandre Raphaël Duc

Modern cryptography pushed forward the need of having provable security. Whereas ancient cryptography was only relying on heuristic assumptions and the secrecy of the designs, nowadays researchers try to make the security of schemes to rely on mathematical ...

The Limits of Composable Crypto with Transferable Setup Devices

Serge Vaudenay, Miyako Ohkubo

UC security realized with setup devices imposes that single instances of these setups are used. In most cases, UC-realization relies further on other properties of the setups devices, like tamper-resistance. But what happens in stronger versions of the UC ...

Unifying Leakage Models: From Probing Attacks to Noisy Leakage

Alexandre Raphaël Duc, Sebastian Faust

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 : No-Cost Security Expertise for All

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 ...

Bounded Tamper Resilience: How to go beyond the Algebraic Barrier

Sebastian Faust

Related key attacks (RKAs) are powerful cryptanalytic attacks where an adversary can change the secret key and observe the effect of such changes at the output. The state of the art in RKA security protects against an a-priori unbounded number of certain a ...

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, ...
