Abstract: The use of cryptography is ubiquitous in our daily life. However, the development of faster quantum computers can break today’s crypto-systems. Therefore, it is imperative that we develop and deploy post-quantum cryptography, before scalable quantum computers become a reality.My research focuses on designing and formally verifying cryptographic primitives based on post-quantum assumptions. My approach combines cryptography and formal methods, aiming to bring provable security to real-world applications. In this talk, I will discuss how to design a post-quantum secure encryption scheme that provides fine-grained access control over encrypted data. Further, I will describe a system called AutoLWE, capable of mechanizing security proofs of lattice-based cryptosystems.
