Cryptographic protocols are a composition of several primitives, offering various functionalities and capabilities. There is a constant need to answer new challenges, improve the efficiency of existing protocols, and suggest a bigger understanding of their security. In this session, advances in cryptographic protocols are presented.
Topic 1: On the Joint Security of Encryption and Signature in EMV
Topic 2: New Constructions of Efficient Simulation-Sound Commitments Using Encryption and Their Applications
