Abstract of Jongsung Kim's Talk
We currently live in an information society. As information and communication technologies develop at an ever growing pace, the number of people who use these technologies on a day to day basis is also increasing. This development has brought substantial benefits but also introduced novel threats and vulnerabilities related to the leakage of confidential information, the theft of identities and the unauthorized modification of data. This shows the need for the development of a reliable and trustworthy information infrastructure. This requires trustworthy systems, and an essential building block for such systems is cryptography. Cryptography is the practice and study of techniques for secure communication in the presence of third parties called adversaries. Various aspects in information security such as data confidentiality, data integrity, authentication, and non-repudiation are central to modern cryptography.
In this talk, some of major topics in modern cryptography are discussed. They include lightweight cryptography, cryptography-based ransomware, and recently proposed practical attack on the standardized hash function SHA-1.
