Cryptography for Privacy and Integrity of Computation on Untrusted Machines

Project description

New generation of cryptographic protocols for privacy and integrity of computation

Over one third of EU internet users rely on cloud services to save documents, pictures, music and other files, irrespective of the device. The cloud also facilitates the sharing of information with other internet users. The big questions now are about privacy and integrity. The ERC-funded PICOCRYPT project will explore ways to ensure that computing devices store and process data on untrusted machines without risks for privacy and integrity and without the need of trusting these machines. Specifically, it will invent a new generation of cryptographic protocols for computing securely on untrusted machines in a way that is cost-effective and suitable for future application scenarios. The project will look for protocols that support a range of applications.
