Serge Vaudenay entered at the Ecole Normale Superieure in Paris in 1989 with a major in mathematics. He received his PhD in computer sciences from University of Paris 7 - Denis Diderot in 1995. He subsequently became a research fellow at CNRS (National Center for Scientific Research in France). In 1999, he was appointed as a Professor at the EPFL, where he created the Security and Cryptography Laboratory.

He works on cryptography and the security of digital information. Most of his work relates to security analysis and provable security of cryptographic algorithms and protocols, specially in symmetric cryptography, post-quantum public-key cryptography, RFID protocols and distance bounding. He wrote an Essay on cryptography (in French, published by PPUR) and a textbook on cryptography (published by Springer). He was program chair of several research conferences and workshops: ACNS'14, INDOCRYPT'13, AFRICACRYPT'12, SAC'11, AFRICACRYPT'08, EUROCRYPT'06, MYCRYPT'05, PKC'05, SAC'01, and FSE'98. In 2007-12, he was an elected director of the IACR (International Association for Cryptologic Research).

Energy and power efficiency is an extremely important optimization goal when implementing applications on any digital platform. This is important for light-weight InternetOfThings devices as well as high end servers and cloud computing. The first one requires a long battery life, the second one needs to reduce the cost of cooling (and the electricity bill).

The energy and power optimization also holds for the implementation of cryptographic algorithms. Our goal is to build devices that can perform the mathematically demanding cryptographic operations in an efficient way. At the same time, we request that the implementations are also secure against a wide range of physical attacks, including side-channel attacks. Unfortunately countermeasures to side-channel attacks impose an extra cost.

This presentation will focus on the implementation aspects of cryptographic operations and how to balance the computation requirements with the resource constraints. These concepts will be illustrated with the design of several cryptographic co-processors, secret key and public key.

Dr. Ingrid Verbauwhede is a Professor in the research group COSIC of the Electrical Engineering Department of the KU Leuven in Belgium. At COSIC, she leads the embedded systems and hardware group. She is also adjunct professor at the EE department at UCLA, Los Angeles, CA. She joined COSIC in 2003 and UCLA in 1998. Before joining UCLA she worked at UC Berkeley as a post-doctoral researcher and visiting lecturer, and later at TCSI and Atmel Lab in Berkeley, CA. She is a Member of IACR and a fellow of IEEE. She was elected as member of the Royal Flemish Academy of Belgium for Science and the Arts in 2011. She is a recipient of an ERC Advanced Grant in 2016. She will receive the IEEE 2017 Computer Society Technical Achievement Award.

She is a pioneer in the field of efficient and secure implementations of cryptographic algorithms in embedded context on ASIC, FPGA and embedded SW. She is the author and co-author of more than 300 publications at conferences, journals, book chapters and books. She graduated 27 PhD students between 2004 and 2015, which have positions in academia and in industry, all over the world.

She has been the general chair in 2012 and the program chair in 2007 of the IACR CHES (Cryptographic Hardware and Embedded Systems) workshop, which is the flagship venue for secure hardware design. She has been member of the program committee of a large number of conferences, including DAC, DATE, ISSCC, Usenix, SIPS, ISCAS, ISLPED, and more.

She has participated in several EU funded hardware and embedded systems security projects. Currently her research group participates in the H2020 projects HECTOR and ECRYPT-CSA. Her list of publications and patents is available at www.esat.kuleuven.be/cosic
