The contributed talks werechosenbyathoroughreviewingprocessfrom53submissions.Oftheinvited and contributed talks,28 arerepresentedaspapersin this volume. These papers are grouped loosely under the headings: Coding Theory, Symmetric Crypt- raphy, Security Protocols, Asymmetric Cryptography, Boolean Functions, and Side Channels and Implementations. Numerous people helped to make this conference a success. To begin with I would like to thank all members of the Technical Program Committee who put a great deal of e?ort into the reviewing process so as to ensure a hi- quality program. Moreover, I wish to thank a number of people, external to the committee, who also contributed reviews on the submitted papers. Thanks, of course,mustalso goto allauthorswho submitted papers to the conference,both those rejected and accepted. The review process was also greatly facilitated by the use of the Web-submission-and-review software, written by Shai Halevi of IBM Research, and I would like to thank him for making this package available to the community. The invited talks were given by Frank Kschischang, Ronald Cramer, and Alexander Pott, and two of these invitedtalksappearaspapersinthisvolume. A particular thanks goes to these invited speakers, each of whom is well-known, notonlyforbeingaworld-leaderintheir?eld,butalsofortheirparticularability to communicate their expertise in an enjoyable and stimulating manner.

These are the proceedings of Eurocrypt 2010, the 29th in the series of Eu- pean conferences on the Theory and Application of Cryptographic Techniques. The conference was sponsored by the International Association for Cryptologic Research and held on the French Riviera, May 30–June 3, 2010. A total of 191 papers were received of which 188 were retained as valid submissions. These were each assigned to at least three Program Committee members and a total of 606 review reports were produced. The printed record of the reviews and extensive online discussions that followed would be almost as voluminous as these proceedings. In the end 35 submissions were accepted with twosubmissionpairsbeingmergedtogive33paperspresentedattheconference. The ?nal papers in these proceedings were not subject to a second review before publication and the authors are responsible for their contents. The ProgramCommittee, listed on the next page, deservesparticular thanks for all their hard work, their outstanding expertise, and their constant c- mitment to all aspects of the evaluation process. These thanks are of course extended to the very many external reviewers who took the time to help out during the evaluation process.It was also a greatpleasure to honor and welcome Moti Yung who gave the 2010 IACR Distinguished Lecture.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 25th Australasian Conference on Information Security and Privacy, ACISP 2020, held in Perth, WA, Australia, in November 2020*. The 31 revised full papers and 5 short papers presented were carefully revised and selected from 151 submissions. The papers present and discuss the latest research, trends, breakthroughs, and challenges in the domain of information security, privacy and cybersecurity on a variety of topics such as post-quantum cryptography; symmetric cipher; signature; network security and blockchain; cryptographic primitives; mathematical foundation; machine learning security, among others. *The conference was held virtually due to COVID-19 pandemic.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 18th European Symposium on Computer Security, ESORICS 2013, held in Egham, UK, in September 2013. The 43 papers included in the book were carefully reviewed and selected from 242 papers. The aim of ESORICS is to further the progress of research in computer security by establishing a European forum for bringing together researchers in this area, by promoting the exchange of ideas with system developers and by encouraging links with researchers in related areas. The papers cover all topics related to security, privacy and trust in computer systems and networks.
Businesses in today’s world are adopting technology-enabled operating models that aim to improve growth, revenue, and identify emerging markets. However, most of these businesses are not suited to defend themselves from the cyber risks that come with these data-driven practices. To further prevent these threats, they need to have a complete understanding of modern network security solutions and the ability to manage, address, and respond to security breaches. The Handbook of Research on Intrusion Detection Systems provides emerging research exploring the theoretical and practical aspects of prominent and effective techniques used to detect and contain breaches within the fields of data science and cybersecurity. Featuring coverage on a broad range of topics such as botnet detection, cryptography, and access control models, this book is ideally designed for security analysts, scientists, researchers, programmers, developers, IT professionals, scholars, students, administrators, and faculty members seeking research on current advancements in network security technology.
Enables readers to understand applications of attribute-based encryption schemes in cloud computing with the support of blockchain technology With a focus on blockchain technology, Attribute-based Encryption (ABE) provides insight into the application of attribute-based encryption (ABE) schemes with blockchain, discussing types of blockchains, fundamentals of blockchain, and how blockchains are constructed. Comprised of 16 chapters, the text provides readers with an overview of the components that go into creating a dual ABE system of encryption proofs within the following: composite bilinear groups, dual pairing vector space framework, matrix pairing framework, framework for matrix pairing, and the application of cryptographic scheme on blockchain. The team of authors discuss the basic construction components of ABE and share the security models, including the selective and semi-adaptive security models, applying these to either prime order or composite order groups. This book also discusses the tools used for converting a composite order ABE scheme to prime order and an adaptive secure ABE scheme based on prime order. In Attribute-based Encryption (ABE), readers can expect to find information on: Mathematical background of ABE, covering group and cyclic group, elliptic curves, curve selection, supersingular curves, ordinary curves, and weil and tate pairing Basic construction components of ABE, covering access structure, monotone boolean formula, linear secret-sharing scheme, and ordered binary decision diagram Tools for converting composite order ABE schemes to prime order, covering security assumptions and conversion based on vectors for preliminaries, scheme construction, and security proof technique Foundations of blockchain technology, covering blocks, miners, hash functions, and public key cryptography Attribute-based Encryption (ABE) is an essential resource for professionals working in the field of design and cybersecurity who wish to understand how to use blockchain and the ABE scheme to provide fine-grained access control in outsourced data on third-party cloud servers.
