Abstract:
The past decade has witnessed the first successful
deployments of encrypted computing, multiparty
computation, and cryptographic zero-knowledge proofs
as privacy preserving technologies. In order to enable
the mainstream use of these technologies and educate
application developers, several community based
standardization groups have been created
(homomorphicencryption.org,
zkproof.org,
mpcalliance.org)
and standard organizations (ISO,
NIST) are already considering how to standardize these
advanced cryptographic techniques.
The Advanced Cryptography Applications and Standards
workshop serves to bring together the industry,
academia and standardization bodies around the
adoption and usability of privacy-enhancing advanced
cryptographic schemes. It aims to highlight the
importance and challenges of deploying these
techniques in real-world applications, as well as of
standardizing these complex cryptographic protocols.
