At the ATHENE Lectures, we invite established national and international cybersecurity experts to give us insights into their latest research findings.
The lectures are mostly held hybrid (on-site at Fraunhofer SIT in Darmstadt), so that there is also the possibility to meet and exchange with the key players in cybersecurity in person after the lecture with tasty snacks and drinks.
The language of the lecture is English.
ATHENE Lecture Series are organized by Prof. Haya Shulman, ATHENE | Goethe University Frankfurt | Fraunhofer SIT.
On 25.04. Yuval Yarom from the University of Adelaide will be our guest.
Title: Automating cryptographic code generation
Abstract:
Cryptography provides the data protection mechanisms that underly security and privacy in the modern connected world. Given this pivotal role, implementations of cryptographic code must not only be correct, but also meet stringent performance and security requirements. Achieving these aims is often difficult and requires significant investment in software development and manual tuning.
This talk presents two approaches for automating the task of generating correct, secure, and efficient cryptographic code. The first, Rosita, uses a power consumption emulator to detect unintended leaky interactions between values in the microarchitecture. It then rewrites the code to eliminate these interactions and produce code that is resistant to power analysis. The second, CryptOpt, uses evolutionary computation to search for the most efficient constant-time implementation of a cryptographic function. It then formally verifies that the produced implementation is semantically equivalent to the original code.
Rosita is a joint work with Lejla Batina, Łukasz Chmielewski, Francesco Regazzoni, Niels Samwel, Madura A. Shelton, and Markus Wagner.
CryptOpt is a joint work with Adam Chlipala, Chitchanok Chuengsatiansup, Andres Erbsen, Daniel Genkin, Jason Gross, Joel Kuepper, Chuyue Sun, Markus Wagner, and David Wu.

Announcement of ATHENE Lecture Series You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.
You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).
Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.
You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).
If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
