Announcement Announcement
We are proud to announce the winners of the 2024 IACR Test-of-Time Award for Eurocrypt. The IACR Test-of-Time Award honors papers published at the 3 IACR flagship conferences 15 years ago which have had a lasting impact on the field. We are announcing the winners for each conference separately.

The Test-of-Time award for Eurocrypt 2009 is awarded to the following paper:

A Unified Framework for the Analysis of Side-Channel Key Recovery Attacks, by François-Xavier Standaert, Tal G. Malkin and Moti Yung.
For introducing a structured approach for evaluation of side-channel attacks and countermeasures and for inspiring further connections between the theory of leakage-resilient cryptography and the practice of defending implementations against side-channels attacks.

For more information, see https://www.iacr.org/testoftime.

Congratulations to the winners!

The IACR strongly condemns the atrocities perpetrated by Hamas against Israel. We are outraged and horrified by this dreadful assault on civilians: Israelis of all religions, ages, and backgrounds; tourists; and foreign workers. We stand in solidarity with the people of Israel.

Our heartfelt sympathy and support go out to our members everywhere who are affected by that attack, and to all those who are suffering its ongoing consequences.

Approved by the IACR board of directors, October 18, 2023
