Mind the Gap: Application-driven evaluation of Smart Contract languages
Andrew Miller
University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign
USA
Abstract
The past year has seen a proliferation of smart contracts systems --- program code on a cryptocurrency blockchain that moves around money. Ethereum is the most well known smart contract platform, though there are also many others. How can we evaluate the expressiveness of smart contract programming languages? In this talk, I'll present a line of research that takes several applications as case studies (a random coin flipping gadget, fair off-chain multiparty computations, and payment channel networks) and attempts to implement them in both Bitcoin script (UTXO-based) and in Ethereum (contract-based). In each setting, we find that the UTXO-based framework requires additional asymptotic overhead compared to Ethereum (either time, computing power, or locked-up collateral).
Biography: Andrew Miller is an Assistant Professor at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, in Electrical and Computer Engineering and affiliate in Computer Science. He is also an Associate Director of the Initiative for Cryptocurrencies and Contracts (IC3) and an advisor to the zcash project. He received his Ph.D. from the University of Maryland Cybersecurity Center. His research interests are broadly in computer security, and focused on the design of secure decentralized systems and cryptocurrencies. He combines techniques from programming languages, cryptography, and distributed computing.
Secure Storage in the Cloud Using Bespoke Encryption Schemes
Kenny Paterson
Royal Holloway University of London
UK
Abstract
In this talk, we'll look at how bespoke encryption schemes can be used to store data in encrypted form at cloud service providers while still allowing various forms of search queries to be carried out against the data. Examples of such schemes include Deterministic Encryption and Order Preserving Encryption, as well as more advanced schemes such as Arx (Poddar et al.), the Lewi-Wu scheme, Kerschbaum's FH-OPE scheme, and CipherBase (Arasu et al.). We'll explain why currently proposed schemes provide insufficient security in practice, and discuss methods by which security can be enhanced whilst preserving search capabilities.
Biography: Kenny Paterson is a Professor of Information Security at Royal Holloway University of London in the UK. His research over the last decade has mostly been in the area of Cryptography, with a strong emphasis being on the analysis of deployed cryptographic systems and the development of provably secure solutions to real-world cryptographic problems. He co-founded the Real World Cryptography series of workshops to support the development of this broad area and to strengthen the links between academia and industry. He is now the editor-in-chief of the Journal of Cryptology. He was made a fellow of the IACR (International Association for Cryptologic Research) in 2017.
Abstract
Digital signatures are the foundation of modern cryptography. We prove the security of a signature scheme by reducing an attack to solving an underlying hard problem. An ideal security reduction should be a tight reduction under a standard assumption in the standard security model without random oracles. Unfortunately, it is hard to program a security reduction capturing the above four features. In this talk, I will focus on tight reduction for digital signatures and introduce two different methods towards tight reduction.
Biography: Willy Susilo is a Professor and the Head of School of Computing and Information Technology and the director of Institute of Cybersecurity and Cryptology (iC2) at the University of Wollongong in Australia.

Blockchain: How crypto meets the industry?
Tsz Hon Yuen
Shield Lab at Huawei Singapore
Singapore
Abstract
Blockchain, the core component of Bitcoin, has been extremely popular among the finance, supply chain and many other industries in the last few years. Many governments and companies are experimenting blockchain with proof of concepts. The growing interest in blockchain drives a lot of new security research areas, including security model and analysis of blockchain, consensus algorithms built from cryptographic primitives, privacy enhancing technologies in blockchain (e.g. linkable ring signatures, zk-SNARKs), etc. There are still some gap between the research community and the blockchain applications. In this talk, we will introduce some challenges we faced, such as implementation difficulties, research problems and application level challenges. We present our views and some solutions on these issues.
Biography: Dr Tsz Hon Yuen is a senior researcher of Shield Lab at Huawei Singapore. He is a member of Cryptography Expert Group in Huawei. He received his PhD degree from University of Wollongong in 2010 and worked in University of Hong Kong before joining Huawei.

He is also active in industrial fields with more than 10 patents. He has served as the PC members and reviewers for many security and cryptography conferences, workshops and journals.
How to Control Access to Thousands of Shared IoT Devices
Yuliang Zheng
University of Alabama at Birmingham
USA
Abstract
The emerging Internet of Things (IoT) promises a highly connected world where tangible things around us are seamlessly integrated into the ever expanding cyber space, which is expected to result in greatly improved quality of life and economic growth. To realize those benefits, it is important for the IoT to have strong security and privacy measures built into it. This presents a number of challenges both at technical and system levels. This talk focuses on our research into controlling access to thousands or more of shared, resource-constrained IoT devices that are orders of magnitude more numerous than the number of passwords a typical person has to manage now. Specific research goals include:
- Simplicity: the methods are convenient to use by average users.
- Scalability: the methods allow users to access thousands or even millions of devices with ease.
- Shared access: the methods afford shared access and control of devices.
- Adaptability to dynamic changes: the methods can be adapted to an increase or decrease in users as well as in devices.
Biography: Dr. Yuliang Zheng is widely known as the father of the signcryption technology which is now an ISO international standard for cyber security. His pioneering research in immunizing public key encryption against adaptive attacks has been embodied in a multiple number of industry standards including those from ISO, IEEE and IETF.
A prolific researcher with more than 200 refereed publications, Dr. Zheng has been at the forefront ofestablishing international standards for cryptographic engineering. His more recent research focus is on leveraging the Internet of Things, blockchains and Big Data to accelerate the progress of precision medicine.
He plays an active, leadership role in international research communities, co-founding the annual Public Key Cryptography (PKC) conference sponsored by the International Association for Cryptologic Research (IACR) and the annual International Conference on Information Theoretic Security (ICITS). In addition, he serves on the steering committees for a number of research and industrial forums including PKC (Chair of the PKC steering committee since 2007), International Conference on Information Theoretic Security, Information Security Conference, IEEE Security in Storage Workshop and IEEE Information Assurance Standards Committee.
Dr. Zheng was invited to serve as an associate editor of The Computer Journal published by the Oxford University Press and as a guest editor for the IEEE Transactions on Information Theory.
Dr. Yuliang Zheng earned his Bachelor's degree in computer science from Nanjing Institute of Technology (renamed Southeast University 1988), Nanjing, China in 1982. He completed his graduate studies at Yokohama National University in Japan, where he earned his master's and PhD degrees both in electrical and computer engineering, in 1988 and 1991 respectively. After completing his PhD, Dr. Zheng moved to Australia, working at first as a cyber security research scientist at the Australian Defense Force Academy, and then as a professor at the University of Wollongong and Monash University. In 2001, Dr. Zheng was recruited by a joint effort between Bank of America, Wachovia Bank (now part of Wells Fargo) and the University of North Carolina at Charlotte (UNCC) to establish and lead a research center for financial cyber security at UNCC. Since July 2015 he has been with the University of Alabama at Birmingham, serving as the Chair of UAB’s Department of Computer Science.
