Cryptographic Solutions: From Abstract to Applied to Actual

Go Back to Talks and Events

Talk by Dr. Moti Young, Google Research
Time: Monday May 2, 11:00-11:59 AM
Place: Room CSE2311, Computer Science Building

In this talk I will demonstrate how cryptographic ideas in the abstract influence applied designs that take systems constraints into account, and how these, in turn, influence actual components in actual systems.

Some basic personal observations regarding conditions that help cryptographic engineering deployment in actual systems will be discussed and will be demonstrated by contributions to a recent actual industrial working project.

Moti Yung is a Research Scientist with Google. He is also an Adjunct Senior Research Faculty in the computer science department of Columbia University. Before that, he was a technology consultant to leading companies and governments, a member of RSA Labs, a Chief Scientist of CertCo Inc. (originally, Bankers Trust Electronic Commerce), and a member of IBM Research. His main research interests are in the areas of security, cryptography, and privacy and their applications.
