Award
We are proud to announce the winners of the 2023 IACR Test-of-Time Award for Crypto.
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. This year, we are announcing the winners for each conference separately.
The Test-of-Time award for Crypto 2008 is awarded to:
A Framework for Efficient and Composable Oblivious Transfer, by Chris Peikert, Vinod Vaikuntanathan and Brent Waters, for the creation of a simple framework for achieving efficient UC composable protocols that can be realized under a variety of concrete assumptions, introducing a powerful notion of dual-mode encryption and allowing for the first time to create bandwidth efficient Regev encryption.

Congratulations to the winners!
