Authentication proxies, which store users' secret credentials and submit them to servers on their behalf, offer benefits with respect to security of the authentication and usability of credential management. However, as being a service that…
We define secure operations with tree-formed, protected verification data registers. Functionality is conceptually added to Trusted Platform Modules (TPMs) to handle Platform Configuration Registers (PCRs) which represent roots of hash…
We reconsider the concept of multi-prover commitments, as introduced in the late eighties in the seminal work by Ben-Or et al. As was recently shown by Cr\'{e}peau et al., the security of known two-prover commitment schemes not only relies…
In this note, we consider the setting of uncloneable encryption satisfying uncloneable indistinguishability, a form of symmetric key encryption that prevents the cloning of ciphertexts in a very strong sense. Our goal is to minimize the…
A $(t,n)$-threshold signature scheme enables distributed signing among $n$ players such that any subset of size at least $t$ can sign, whereas any subset with fewer players cannot. The goal is to produce threshold digital signatures that…
Despite being the subject of a growing body of research, non-orthogonal multiple access has failed to garner sufficient support to be included in modern standards. One of the more promising approaches to non-orthogonal multiple access is…
With the growing use of Transformer models hosted on cloud platforms to offer inference services, privacy concerns are escalating, especially concerning sensitive data like investment plans and bank account details. Secure Multi-Party…
Using a neutron double-slit setup, we construct a quantum bit commitment scheme in which time development of quantum states plays an essential role. Our scheme evades the widely accepted no-go theorem by the fact that it is neither possible…
Writing concurrent programs for shared memory multiprocessor systems is a nightmare. This hinders users to exploit the full potential of multiprocessors. STM (Software Transactional Memory) is a promising concurrent programming paradigm…
Solid state defects such as nitrogen vacancy (NV) centers in diamond have been utilized for NMR sensing at ambient temperatures for samples at the nano-scale and up to the micro-scale. Similar to standard NMR, NV-sensitivities can be…
Emerging non-volatile main memory (NVMM) is rapidly being integrated into computer systems. However, NVMM is vulnerable to potential data remanence and replay attacks. Established security models including split counter mode encryption and…
Emerging non-volatile memory (NVM) technologies promise memory speed byte-addressable persistent storage with a load/store interface. However, programming applications to directly manipulate NVM data is complex and error-prone. Applications…
Secure multi-party computation enables multiple mutually distrusting parties to perform computations on data without revealing the data itself, and has become one of the core technologies behind privacy-preserving machine learning. In this…
Developing kernels for Processing-In-Memory (PIM) platforms poses unique challenges in data management and parallel programming on limited processing units. Although software development kits (SDKs) for PIM, such as the UPMEM SDK, provide…
