cataCrypt -- catastrophic events related to Cryptography and possible solutions

Abstract:

Many cryptographic protocols are only based on the security of one cryptographic algorithm (e.g. RSA) and we don't know the exact RSA security. What if somebody finds a clever and fast factoring algorithm? Well, it is indeed a hypothesis but we know several instances of possible progress. A new fast algorithm is a possible catastroph if not handled properly. And there are other problems with hash functions, elliptic curves, also. Think also about the Heartbleed bug (April 2014): the discovery was very late and we were close to a catastrophic situation. This workshop deals with these possible problems and their solutions.

CFRG -- Crypto Forum Research Group

Abstract:

The Crypto Forum Research Group (CFRG) is a general forum for discussing and reviewing uses of cryptographic mechanisms, both for network security in general and for the IETF in particular. It serves as a bridge between theory and practice, bringing new cryptographic techniques to the Internet community and promoting an understanding of the use and applicability of these mechanisms via Informational RFCs (in the tradition of, e.g., RFC 1321 (MD5) and RFC 2104 (HMAC). Our goal is to provide a forum for discussing and analyzing general cryptographic aspects of security protocols, and to offer guidance on the use of emerging mechanisms and new uses of existing mechanisms. IETF working groups developing protocols that include cryptographic elements are welcome to bring questions concerning the protocols to the CFRG for advice.

FewMul -- Fewer Multiplications in Cryptography

Abstract:

Cryptographic primitives realized with few multiplications can significantly improve (or even enable!) applications in areas as diverse as homomorphic encryption, side-channel attack countermeasures, secure multiparty computation, or zero-knowlege proofs. This one-time workshop aims to provide an overview of results, applications and current research in this area. This covers theory, design and analysis, as well as implementations. Major goals are to bring together researchers from the unusual set of relevant disciplines within cryptography/security and outside (e.g. circuit complexity), and to identify open problems and more applications. This is a one-day event consisting of invited talks only.

FOQUS -- Frontiers Of Quantum Safe Cryptography

Abstract:

The objective of the workshop is to promote research at the frontiers of Quantum-safe cryptography, i.e. to design and analyze cryptographic tasks secure against quantum-capable adversaries, using concepts and techniques from modern cryptography and/or quantum information. The program will be composed of invited talks. Target audience is composed of modern cryptographers interested in the implications of quantum information to cryptography as well as quantum information researchers interested in cryptography. The goal of the workshop will be to strengthen the collaboration between the two communities on some important topics in quantum-safe cryptography and to identify new ones.

Frontier research topics in Quantum-Safe Cryptography are:

  • Security models for quantum-safe cryptography and their relation to "classical" models
  • Power of quantum adversaries for lattice and code-based cryptography
  • Design of quantum-safe cryptographic primitives
  • Hardware security, attacks and implementation security certification
  • Practical applications and deployment of quantum-safe cryptographic systems

QsCI -- Quantum-safe Crypto for Industry (RISQ)

Abstract:

Quantum-Safe cryptography aims at constructing systems that are secure against quantum and conventional computers. The status of quantum-safe cryptography is currently completely changing. It is quickly moving from a purely academic theme to a topic of major industrial interest, driven by the fact that quantum-safe cryptography has recently received much attention from the standardization and policy spectra such as NIST, ETSI, CSA and ISO. The goal of the QsCI workshop is to regroup speakers from the industry and the academia to discuss of the construction and development of quantum-safe systems. The event will include a selection of speakers in the area of quantum-safe cryptography, standardization and industrial challenges for quantum-safe cryptography.

SEMS -- Security for Embedded and Mobile Systems

Abstract:

Embedded and mobile devices that provide security and crypto functionalities and manage private and confidential data are omnipresent in our daily lives. Examples of such devices range from smart cards and RFID tags, to mobile phones, tablets, and IoT devices. Ensuring the security and privacy of these devices is a challenging problem, as witnessed by recent breaking of crypto and security systems used in mobile phones, car keys, and RFID-enabled cards. Typical threats to extract the keys include side-channel and fault analysis. Additionally, the vulnerabilities of the devices also imply privacy concerns. The operating systems supporting some of those devices, particularly mobile phones and tablets, but also IoT ones, have become very complex. Various sorts of malware present a constant threat for users. Although measures like application sandboxing take place, they also open the court for new attacks by constantly collecting and organizing sensitive information about the user.

S&B -- Security on Blockchains

Abstract:

Today, the security and privacy properties of blockchain technologies are still an emerging field that is need of further research. The Bitcoin electronic cash system introduced the new field of blockchain technology as a practical mechanism for a permissionless and censorship-resistant e-cash over the Internet. However, the decentralized network and public verifiability of Bitcoin often do not provide the security and privacy properties assumed by its users. For example, despite a common assumption that Bitcoin is anonymous, transactions can be de-anonymized, limiting the commercial utility of the network and also harms individual privacy. Generalizations of Bitcoin's underlying blockchain technology as a platform for smart contracts by Ethereum are still immature. For example, security issues in the underlying programming language for smart contracts in Ethereum led to the massive DAO hack. More than ever, proper security and privacy properties need to be designed into the underlying framework for blockchain technologies.

TPT -- Tamarin-Prover Tutorial

Abstract:

Tamarin is an automated verification tool that has been used to analyze group key protocols, public-key infrastructure proposals, and proposed standards, such as TLS. Using Tamarin, recently attacks were found in TLS 1.3. Tamarin works in the symbolic model of cryptographic protocols, and enables automatic analysis as well as a powerful interactive mode. It supports both falsification and unbounded verification of security protocols specified as multiset rewriting systems with respect to (temporal) first-order properties and a message theory that models Diffie-Hellman exponentiation combined with a user-defined subterm-convergent rewriting theory. In this tutorial, presentation and hands-on exercises will be combined to show attendees the basics of security protocol modeling with multiset rewriting, property specification, and analysis. Participants will model classic protocols, find attacks and perform verification, and leave with an understanding how to start modeling their own protocols of interest.

WCS -- 2nd workshop on Communication Security

wr0ng -- Random Number Generation Done Right

Abstract:

All cryptographic constructions heavily rely on the availability of random bits, for operations such as key generation, randomization of encryption or signatures and or nonces in protocols. Unfortunately, multiple incidents have demonstrated that the quality of the (pseudo-)random number generators leaves much to be desired. Even worse, in September 2013 it was revealed that the US government agency has deliberately undermined the security of cryptographic solutions by inserting a backdoor in the Dual EC random number generator included in ANSI, NIST and ISO standards. This highlights that a secure system can be fatally weakened by the insertion of just one flawed component; if the NSA can predict all randomness used by a system, it knows all secrets used during that time period and might even be able to recover long-term keys. In spite of their crucial importance, there are very few research papers on the topic and most industrial designs are proprietary. Moreover, existing designs and instances are notoriously difficult to evaluate. The goal of this workshop is to review new models, constructions, implementations, and evaluation methodologies. It will also be explored whether the area is mature enough to identify requirements and plan an open competition. The workshop will cover both truly random number generators and pseudo-random number generators.

EuroUSEC -- European Workshop on Usable Security

IMPS -- Innovations in Mobile Privacy and Security

Abstract:

IMPS aims to bring together researchers working on challenges in security and privacy for mobile platforms, broadly considered. We are interested in investigations into existing security platforms, their users, applications and app store ecosystems, and research into novel security or privacy mechanisms, tools and analysis techniques. Besides established mobile platforms such as iOS and Android, the workshop will consider new and emerging platforms including those for small and embedded devices for example, in the Internet-of-Things setting.

S4CIP -- 2nd Workshop on Safety & Security aSSurance for Criticial Infrastructures Protection

Abstract:

Modern society heavily relies on large, heterogeneous and complex software-intensive systems to support all kinds of daily activities. Services such as urban transportation, logistics, health-care, data communication, railway, aerospace, and power distribution, to name a few, are becoming more and more dependent on the availability of such infrastructures. Any discontinuity of service may lead to serious problems, from severe financial losses to fatalities or injuries; the causes have different natures, either human errors, unexpected acts of nature, or intentional attacks like sabotage. Safety and security (S&S) assessments in critical infrastructures measure how these disruptions are handled and what is the impact suffered by the critical infrastructure under stress. These assessments are normally performed using analytical or simulation-based techniques often addressing one single specific aspect at a time rather than studying these infrastructures in a holistic manner. This workshop aims at providing a forum for people from academia and industry to communicate their latest results on theoretical advances, industrial case studies, practical scenarios, and lessons learned in the assurance of S&S for critical infrastructures. Since the special interest on S&S assurance, a special focus will be put on model-based approaches; to the joint modelling and analysis of both cyber and physical aspects of critical infrastructures; and to the definition of unifying modelling and analysis methodologies. Research papers focused on safety or security assurance only are also welcome.
