Post-quantum TLS experiments

Recently, I have computed the sizes and measured the performance of post-quantum TLS (both PQ key exchange and post-quantum authentication). In these experiments, I have examined …

A tale of two models: formal verification of KEMTLS in Tamarin

We prove the security of KEMTLS in two Tamarin models. One mode is based on the Cremers et al. model of TLS 1.3; the other closely resembles our pen-and-paper proofs. These models …

Implementing and Measuring KEMTLS

KEMTLS (CCS 2020) is a novel alternative to the Transport Layer Security (TLS) handshake that integrates post-quantum algorithms. It uses a key encapsulation mechanism (KEM) for …

Solving LPN Using Large Covering Codes

Since quantum computers are expected to break most of the cryptographic schemes we rely on today, we need to look at alternatives. Learning Parity with Noise (LPN) is mathematical …
