No deadline for exercise sheets

Written on 19.11.24 by Nico Döttling

Dear Students,

To repeat what I said before: The exercise sheets will not be graded, hence there is no deadline to hand them in. 

I will release a solution sheet in approx. two weeks

Lecture in different location tomorrow

Written on 17.11.24 by Nico Döttling

Dear Students,

tomorrow‘s lecture will be in Seminarroom 5 (011) in the Math building (E2 4)

Advanced Public Key Cryptography

Overview

In the past three decades cryptography has taken on tasks above and beyond the basic task of securing point-to-point communication channels: Maintaining the privacy of individuals in databases, secure computation on large datasets and anonymous transactions in blockchains-based currencies to name just a few.

This course will cover the state-of-the-art in public-key encryption and discuss some of the guiding challenges and frontier-problems of today.

The following topics will be covered:

  • Modelling Security for public-key encryption
  • Proving security of public-key encryption schemes
  • Tools for building public-key encryption schemes
  • Notions of public-key encryption with enhanced functionality:
    Homomorphic Encryption
    Identity-Based Encryption
    Attribute-Based Encryption
    Functional Encryption

Prerequisites

Some familiarity with the basics of cryptography is expected, e.g. as provided in the summer-term course "Cryptography".
