One intensive week of theory, practice and discussions: 4-hour lectures and tutorials by international experts extended with practical workshops, labs and seminars, simulations, round-table discussions and working groups on hot topics
Topics of the year – the specific focus areas for 2015 edition will be:
- Crypto for cloud – Searchable encryption and Homomorphic encryption (with practical simulations and demo-kit)
- Crypto and security for smart devices – Internet of Things, the emerging standard of “industrial Internet”, theory and practice (semi-autonomous, robots) – specific aspect: Side channel attacks
Dimitar Jetchev tele-presented by VGo
Theory
- elliptic curve cryptography (ECC), symmetric key, lattice-based cryptography
- efficient arithmetic and integer factorization
- functional encryption – identity-based encryption (IBE) and attribute-based encryption (ABE)
- curve-based cryptography – theoretical and practical aspects
- pairing-based cryptography
- blind signatures and e-voting schemes
- secure communications
Practice
- personal secure devices, mobile security
- secure architectures, “security by design” aspects
- biometrics for security, multi-factor security (incl. “intuitive” methods)
- e-Voting – practical realization
- security in the cloud – searchable encryption lab
- side-channel resistance – practical labs and simulation
