We consider problems of authentication using secret key generation under a privacy constraint on the enrolled source data. An adversary who has access to the stored description and correlated side information tries to deceive the…
This paper proposed the application of post-encryption-compression (PEC) to strengthen the secrecy in the case of distributed encryption where the encryption keys are correlated to each other. We derive the universal code construction for…
Most current distributed processing research deals with improving the flexibility and convergence speed of algorithms for networks of finite size with no constraints on information sharing and no concept for expected levels of signal…
This paper studies adaptive coding for the two-way wiretap channel. Especially, the strong secrecy metric is of our interest that is defined by the information leakage of transmitted messages to the eavesdropper. First, we consider an…
Allowing organizations to share their data for training of machine learning (ML) models without unintended information leakage is an open problem in practice. A promising technique for this still-open problem is to train models on the…
A dealer aims to share a secret with participants so that only predefined subsets can reconstruct it, while others learn nothing. The dealer and participants access correlated randomness and communicate over a one-way, public, rate-limited…
The design of privacy mechanisms for two scenarios is studied where the private data is hidden or observable. In the first scenario, an agent observes useful data $Y$, which is correlated with private data $X$, and wants to disclose the…
We develop a low-complexity polar coding scheme for the discrete memoryless broadcast channel with confidential messages under strong secrecy and randomness constraints. Our scheme extends previous work by using an optimal rate of uniform…
The problem of secure broadcasting with independent secret keys is studied. The particular scenario is analyzed in which a common message has to be broadcast to two legitimate receivers, while keeping an external eavesdropper ignorant of…
We consider the problem of weakly-private information retrieval (WPIR) when data is encoded by a maximum distance separable code and stored across multiple servers. In WPIR, a user wishes to retrieve a piece of data from a set of servers…
Suppose Alice wishes to send messages to Bob through a communication channel C_1, but her transmissions also reach an eavesdropper Eve through another channel C_2. The goal is to design a coding scheme that makes it possible for Alice to…

Achieving security against adversaries with unlimited computational power is of great interest in a communication scenario. Since polar codes are capacity achieving codes with low encoding-decoding complexity and they can approach perfect…
This paper investigates the fundamental performance limits of the two-user interference channel in the presence of an external eavesdropper. In this setting, we construct an inner bound, to the secrecy capacity region, based on the idea of…
Perfect ciphers have been a very attractive cryptographic tool ever since C. Shannon described them. Note that, by definition, if a perfect cipher is used, no one can get any information about the encrypted message without knowing the…
In continuation to earlier works where the problem of joint information embedding and lossless compression (of the composite signal) was studied in the absence \cite{MM03} and in the presence \cite{MM04} of attacks, here we consider the…
The key-leakage-storage region is derived for a generalization of a classic two-terminal key agreement model. The additions to the model are that the encoder observes a hidden, or noisy, version of the identifier, and that the encoder and…
A polar coding scheme is proposed for the Wiretap Broadcast Channel with two legitimate receivers and one eavesdropper. We consider a model in which the transmitter wishes to send a private and a confidential message that must be reliably…
Many proofs in discrete mathematics and theoretical computer science are based on the probabilistic method. To prove the existence of a good object, we pick a random object and show that it is bad with low probability. This method is…
This paper considers the problem of single-server Private Computation (PC) in the presence of Side Information (SI). In this problem, there is a server that stores $K$ i.i.d. messages, and a user who has a subset of $M$ uncoded messages or…
