This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed proceedings of the 8th International Conference on the Theory and Application of Cryptographic Techniques in Africa, AFRICACRYPT 2016, held in Fes, Morooco, in April 2016. The 18 papers presented in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 65 submissions. The aim of Africacrypt 2016 is to provide an international forum for practitioners and researchers from industry, academia and government from all over the world for a wide ranging discussion of all forms of cryptography. Topics of interest are such as lattices; elliptic curves; secret-key cryptanalysis; efficient implementations; secure protocols; and public-key cryptography.

Progress in Cryptology – AFRICACRYPT 2016

Public key cryptography was introduced by Diffie and Hellman in 1976, and it was soon followed by concrete instantiations of public-key encryption and signatures; these led to an entirely new field of research with formal definitions and security models. Since then, impressive tools have been developed with seemingly magical properties, including those that exploit the rich structure of pairings on elliptic curves. Asymmetric Cryptography starts by presenting encryption and signatures, the basic primitives in public-key cryptography. It goes on to explain the notion of provable security, which formally defines what "secure" means in terms of a cryptographic scheme. A selection of famous families of protocols are then described, including zero-knowledge proofs, multi-party computation and key exchange. After a general introduction to pairing-based cryptography, this book presents advanced cryptographic schemes for confidentiality and authentication with additional properties such as anonymous signatures and multi-recipient encryption schemes. Finally, it details the more recent topic of verifiable computation.

The aim of this text is to treat selected topics of the subject of contemporary cryptology, structured in five quite independent but related themes: Efficient distributed computation modulo a shared secret, multiparty computation, modern cryptography, provable security for public key schemes, and efficient and secure public-key cryptosystems.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 4th International Conference on the Theory and Application of Cryptographic Techniques in Africa, AFRICACRYPT 2011, held in Dakar, Senegal, in July 2011. The 23 papers presented together with abstracts of 3 invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 76 submissions. They are organized in topical sections on protocols, cryptanalysis, secret-key cryptography, efficient implementations, cryptographic schemes, algorithmic problems, elliptic curves, fault analysis, and security proofs.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 31st Annual International Conference on the Theory and Applications of Cryptographic Techniques, EUROCRYPT 2012, held in Cambgridge, UK, in April 2012. The 41 papers, presented together with 2 invited talks, were carefully reviewed and selected from 195 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on index calculus, symmetric constructions, secure computation, protocols, lossy trapdoor functions, tools, symmetric cryptanalysis, fully homomorphic encryption, asymmetric cryptanalysis, efficient reductions, public-key schemes, security models, and lattices.

ACNS2009,the7thInternationalConferenceonAppliedCryptographyandN- work Security, was held in Paris-Rocquencourt, France, June 2–5, 2009. ACNS ´ 2009 was organized by the Ecole Normale Sup´ erieure (ENS), the French - tional Center for Scienti?c Research (CNRS), and the French National Institute for Researchin Computer Science andControl(INRIA), in cooperationwith the InternationalAssociation for CryptologicResearch(IACR). The General Chairs of the conference were Pierre-Alain Fouque and Damien Vergnaud. Theconferencereceived150submissionsandeachsubmissionwasassignedto at least three committee members. Submissions co-authored by members of the Program Committee were assigned to at least four committee members. Due to thelargenumber ofhigh-qualitysubmissions,thereviewprocesswaschallenging andwearedeeplygratefulto the committeemembersandthe externalreviewers for their outstanding work. After meticulous deliberation, the Program C- mittee, which was chaired by Michel Abdalla and David Pointcheval, selected 32 submissions for presentation in the academic track and these are the articles that are included in this volume. Additionally, a few other submissions were selected for presentation in the non-archival industrial track. The best student paper was awarded to Ayman Jarrous for his paper “Secure Hamming Distance Based Computation and Its Applications,” co-authoredwith Benny Pinkas. The review process was run using the iChair software, written by Thomas Baigneres and Matthieu Finiasz from EPFL, LASEC, Switzerland and we are indebted to them for letting us use their software. The programalso included four invited talks in addition to the academicand industrial tracks.
