National Initiatives with Industrials

• ANR ARPEGE PRINCE: Proven Resilience against Information leakage in Cryptographic Engineering.

  Participants : Michel Ferreira Abdalla, Sonia Belaid, Fabrice Ben Hamouda, Alain Passelègue, David Pointcheval.

  From December 2010 to May 2015.

  Partners: UVSQ, Oberthur Technologies, Ingenico, Gemalto, Tranef.

  We aim to undertake research in the field of leakage-resilient cryptography with a practical point of view. Our goal is to design efficient leakage-resilient cryptographic algorithms and invent new countermeasures for non-leakage-resilient cryptographic standards. These outcomes shall realize a provable level of security against side-channel attacks and come with a formally verified implementation. For this every practical aspect of the secure implementation of cryptographic schemes must be taken into account, ranging from the high-level security protocols to the cryptographic algorithms and from these algorithms to their implementation on specific devices which hardware design may feature different leakage models.

• ANR INS SIMPATIC: SIM and PAiring Theory for Information and Communications security.

  Participants : Angelo de Caro, Houda Ferradi, David Pointcheval, Olivier Sanders, Damien Vergnaud.

  From February 2013 to July 2016.

  Partners: Orange Labs,INVIA, Oberthur Technologies, STMicroelectronics, Université Bordeaux 1, Université de Caen Basse-­Normandie, Université de Paris VIII

  We aim at providing the most possible efficient and secure hardware/software implementation of a bilinear pairing in a SIM card.

• FUI CryptoComp.

  Participants : Rafael Del Pino, Vadim Lyubashevsky.

  From October 2014 to September 2017.

  Partners: CEA, UVSQ, CryptoExperts, Dictao, XLIM, ViAccess Orca, CNRS, Bertin Technologies, KalRay, Gemalto

  We aim at studying delegation of computations to the cloud, in a secure way.
