High-assurance cryptography for IoT applications.

The RIOT-FP project is looking for a postdoctoral research to work with Inria's GRACE team (on the campus of École poytechnique in the southern suburbs of Paris) and the PROSECCO team (in central Paris). The project aims to develop high-speed, high-security, low-memory cryptographic primitives (especially post-quantum public-key algorithms), backed by proven implementations with safety guarantees for software execution on low-end IoT devices. The real-world objective is to provide some future-proofing for RIOT OS (https:/riot-os.org), a free and open-source operating system for low-end IoT devices.

Candidates are expected to have a strong background in cryptographic algorithms, IoT software security, or formally verified software. They must have, or expect to hold, a PhD in a field related to the project; they must also have strong programming experience and mathematical skills. They should have an international research profile, and be fluent in written and spoken English.

Post-Doctoral Fellow in Concrete Cryptography
Simula UiB, Bergen, Norway
Job Posting Job Posting
Cryptology forms the backbone of modern digital security. While in theory it is known how to make secure cryptosystems that are asymptotically secure, a considerable gap with practice is demonstrated time and again by breaks of practical, implemented cryptosystems, deployed as part of a larger security ecosystem. The project “concrete cryptology” aims to provide concrete and meaningful security guarantees from low-level implementation to high-level deployment.

The postdoc will have considerable freedom in selecting specific problems to work on within the larger scope of the project. One focus is the effect that side-channel attacks that do not result in full key recovery have on security, including provable security, higher up the chain. Another focus is the effect that large-scale deployment deviating from some abstract ideal has.

Simula UiB Offers

- Excellent opportunities for performing high-quality research, as part of a highly competent and motivated team of international researchers and engineers.

- An informal and inclusive international working environment

- Generous support for travel and opportunities to build international networks, through established collaboration with industry, exchange programs and research visits with other universities, and funding to attend conferences

- Modern office facilities located in downtown Bergen

- A competitive salary. Starting salary from NOK 532.300

- Numerous benefits: access to company cabin, BabyBonus arrangements, sponsored social events, generous equipment budgets (e.g., computer, phone and subscription), comprehensive travel/health insurance policy, etc

- Relocation assistance: accommodation, visas, complimentary Norwegian language courses, etc

- Administrative research support: e.g., quality assurance process for grant proposals (including RCN and EU programs)

- Wellness and work-life balance. Our employees’ health and well-being is a priority and we encourage them to make use of our flexible work arrangements to help balance their work and home lives efficiently

    Industrial systems are often used to monitor and control a physical process such as energy production and distribution, water cleaning or transport systems. They are often simply called Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems. Due to their interaction withthe real world, the safety of these systems is critical and any incident can potentially harm humans and the environment. One of the main research axis in cybersecurity of industrial systems deals with combination of safety and security properties. Safety relates to applicative properties of the system (e.g. chemical properties for a chemical factory); while security properties take into account how an intruder can harm the system. As show in [3], combining safety and security is a challenging topic as these properties can be either dependent, strengthening, antagonist or independent. currently no tool is able to handle both aspects at the same time. In this context, we propose a Ph.D thesis revolving around modeling of industrial systems taking into account both safety properties of the physical process and security properties. Besides the definition of an accurate, yet automatically analyzable modeling framework/language, many aspects can be part of the subject. For instance, programmable automata (PLC) configuration files could be generated from this model in order to only deploy programs validated beforehand. PLC vulnerabilities could be studied (firmware reverse engineering, protocol fuzzing) in order to test the technical feasibility of found attacks. Finally, in a certification context, security analyzes on the model could include requirements from standards such as IEC 62443 [5] to help evaluation process

    As a consequence of the rapid development of the Internet of Things (IoT), where devices are massively interconnected, security breaches are discovered daily. The growing threat of physical attacks, on which connected objects are widely exposed, forces chipmakers to increase the security of their products. True Random Number Generators are the cornerstone of device security; they are required for running cryptographic algorithms and fully integrated into encryption engines. The security level of the system directly depends on the randomness of the bits generated. Furthermore, IoT chips are facing harsh constraints in terms of price and power consumption. In order to be integrated into these chips, TRNG must offer an efficient tradeoff between cost and security. In this perspective, TRNGs based on already integrated components, such as RRAM memories, is a promising lead.

    This study is focused on the security of embedded systems and in particular asymmetric cryptography against horizontal attacks and Template attacks. Recent studies, applied to symmetric cryptography, have made it possible to build new techniques for side channel attacks. By improving the effectiveness of Template attacks, these new attacks make it easier to bypass masking countermeasures. It seems appropriate to study these new tools in depth in the context of Template and horizontal attacks against asymmetric cryptography, especially for elliptic curves. The use of machine learning in the context of side channel attacks. The main purpose of the thesis is to evaluate the security properties of ECCs against the most advanced Template and Horizontal attacks that use machine learning. Depending on the results obtained, new countermeasures will have to be constructed in order to address any new weaknesses.

    PhD position in web security and privacy
    Inria Lille, France
    Job Posting Job Posting
    Since its inception, the web has grown substantially and websites have turned into rich client-side experience customized for the user where third parties supply a considerable amount of content. The increasing reliance on third parties has brought a number of privacy issues to the web with web tracking being at the top of that list. With cookies and browser fingerprinting, users are on the losing side of privacy as they can be tracked across the domains they are visiting. To regain control, browser vendors like Mozilla and Apple have added in their own browsers a tracking protection mechanism (called Enhanced Tracking Protection for Firefox and Intelligent Tracking Protection for Safari) aimed at preventing track- ing on the web. Yet, essential functionality of a website is sometimes so intertwined with tracking code that using these protective mechanisms can transitively “break” a webpage. We define “page breakage” as an undesirable behavior on a webpage and it includes, but is not limited to, page slowdowns, page freezes, page crashes, page errors and page display issues. In order to push online privacy forward, there is a real need today to identify and block properly tracking entities on the web without the current usability costs associated with it.

    PhD Position in Hardware Security, mixed-signal FPGAs
    CentraleSupélec - INSA, Institute of Electronics & Telecommunications of Rennes (IETR), France
    Job Posting Job Posting
    This PhD focuses on data confidentiality and side-channel information leakage analysis in mixed-signal reconfigurable SoCs. Heterogeneous computing has led to physically close mixed-signal devices combining digital processing and analog/radio modules, where digital computation noise flows to the analogue part of the chip and is amplified and transmitted by the antenna. These so-called Screaming Channels have simplified and reduced the cost of previous distant attack setups. In reconfigurable computing, heterogeneity has brought mixed-signal reconfigurable platforms, RFSoCs (Radio Frequency SoCs), adding programmable analog/RF sub-modules to the previous combination of CPUs and logic.
    This PhD will study the impact that close-by digital-analog-RF domains in mixed-signal reconfigurable platforms may have on new system vulnerabilities. The thesis will focus on studying data leakage mechanisms in RFSoCs to analyze and understand potential new threats linked to their reconfigurable and mixed-signal nature as a first step to find adequate countermeasures.

    The candidate must hold a Master degree in Computer/Electrical Engineering, Embedded Systems, Microelectronics, or Computer Science and demonstrate strong background in several of the following topics: Digital design with HDLs; Reconfigurable computing, FPGAs; Hardware security; Embedded systems architectures; Microelectronics/VLSI Design. Knowledge on cryptographic algorithms implementations, C/C++/Python programming and Linux/Git as development environment are highly valuable.

    You will receive a 3 year PhD contract and social security coverage, subsidized meals, partial reimbursement of public transport costs, support with accommodation at the campus and access to vocational training and social, cultural and sports events and activities. Send your CV, Bachelor/Master transcripts, a motivational text and reference letter before May 10, 2020.
