Due to their immutable log of information, blockchains can be considered as a transparency-enhancing technology. The immutability, however, also introduces threats and challenges with respect to privacy laws and illegal content. Introducing…

Sensitive applications running on the cloud often require data to be stored in an encrypted domain. To run data mining algorithms on such data, partially homomorphic encryption schemes (allowing certain operations in the ciphertext domain)…

As machine learning (ML) models become increasingly deployed through cloud infrastructures, the confidentiality of user data during inference poses a significant security challenge. Homomorphic Encryption (HE) has emerged as a compelling…

In blockchain-based anonymous cryptocurrencies, due to their tamper-resistance and transparency characteristics, transaction data are initially required to be anonymous, with the help of various cryptographic techniques, e.g., commitment…

Cryptography and data science research grew exponential with the internet boom. Legacy encryption techniques force users to make a trade-off between usability, convenience, and security. Encryption makes valuable data inaccessible, as it…

Blockchains are gaining momentum due to the interest of industries and people in \emph{decentralized applications} (Dapps), particularly in those for trading assets through digital certificates secured on blockchain, called tokens. As a…

Fully homomorphic encryption has allowed devices to outsource computation to third parties while preserving the secrecy of the data being computed on. Many images contain sensitive information and are commonly sent to cloud services to…

Recently, cybersecurity becomes more and more important due to the rapid development of Internet. However, existing methods are in reality highly sensitive to attacks and are far more vulnerable than expected, as they are lack of trustable…

Transfer learning is a de facto standard method for efficiently training machine learning models for data-scarce problems by adding and fine-tuning new classification layers to a model pre-trained on large datasets. Although numerous…

The widespread adoption of cloud infrastructures has revolutionised data storage and access. However, it has also raised concerns regarding the privacy of sensitive data stored in the cloud. To address these concerns, encryption techniques…

Analytics on personal data, such as individuals' mobility, financial, and health data can be of significant benefit to society. Such data is already collected by smartphones, apps and services today, but liberal societies have so far…

Fully homomorphic encryption is an encryption method with the property that any computation on the plaintext can be performed by a party having access to the ciphertext only. Here, we formally define and give schemes for quantum homomorphic…

The use of Machine Learning (ML) for data-driven decision-making often relies on access to sensitive datasets, which introduces privacy challenges. Traditional encryption methods protect data at rest or in transit but fail to secure it…

Quorum is a permissioned blockchain platform built from the Ethereum codebase with adaptations to make it a permissioned consortium platform. It is one of the key contenders in the permissioned ledger space. Quorum supports confidentiality…

We present a new dispute resolution protocol that can be built on the Ethereum blockchain. Unlike existing applications like Kleros, privacy is ensured by design through the use of the zero-knowledge protocols Semaphore and MACI (Minimal…

Legacy encryption systems depend on sharing a key (public or private) among the peers involved in exchanging an encrypted message. However, this approach poses privacy concerns. Especially with popular cloud services, the control over the…

Cross chain interoperability in blockchain systems exposes a fundamental tension between user privacy and regulatory accountability. Existing solutions enforce an all or nothing choice between full anonymity and mandatory identity…

Consensus algorithms play a critical role in blockchains and directly impact their performance. During consensus processing, nodes need to validate and order the pending transactions into a new block, which requires verifying the…

Most self-service payment terminals require network connectivity for processing electronic payments. The necessity to maintain network connectivity increases costs, introduces cybersecurity risks, and significantly limits the number of…

We propose a public key encryption cryptosystem based on solutions of linear equation systems with predefinition of input parameters through shared secret computation for factorizable substitutions. The existence of multiple equivalent…
