Shout out to @jbis9051 and @pag_crypto for their interview on one of my favorite podcasts, @scwpod, where they discuss STIR/SHAKEN https://t.co/crUsEzleut. Also, if you find this interesting and work in telecom, be sure to check out @SecurityMartini—we take this space seriously.

Proud of U Michigan undergraduate and former Cloudflare Research intern @jbis9051 on his first RWC talk!

Thrilled to share that I will be giving a talk at RWC 2024 on the security and privacy of a new suite of telephone protocols: 'STIR/SHAKEN: A Looming Privacy Disaster'. Deeply grateful to @pag_crypto for his invaluable and ongoing mentorship throughout the research process.

We have two schools colocated with Latincrypt: 1. ASCRYPTO with amazing set of speakers such as @arantxazapico @KBoudgoust @chloelono @alxdavids @daniescudero @cjpatton_ Britta Hale, Daniel Escudero, @pag_crypto, Leah Rosenbloom. Check the program: https://t.co/QrGfSOM64M

Today's my last official day at CMU, making this announcement long overdue: I'm headed to Indiana University @IULuddy this fall as an Assistant Professor of Computer Science! I'm truly thrilled to return to Bloomington as a member of the PL group that introduced me to the area.

#WAC6 talks: Quang Dao @QuangVDao presents weak Fiat-Shamir attacks on modern proof systems. One of the attacks would've allowed printing unlimited money! This is another DPA from Oakland'23 with @TheMijCipher Opal Wright @pag_crypto. More infos:

Congratulations to @pag_crypto and coauthors for winning the Distinguished Paper Award at the recent @IEEESSP conference! Their paper explores security risks in modern zero-knowledge proof systems commonly used in cryptocurrencies. https://t.co/QhFTp24xEe

New paper! "Security Analysis of MongoDB Queryable Encryption" with Zichen Gui and Tianxin Tang (@koptxin) from the Applied Crypto Group at @CSatETH (1/16)

Yeeeehaw!

#ePrint Weak Fiat-Shamir Attacks on Modern Proof Systems: Q Dao, J Miller, O Wright, P Grubbs

1) Happy to announce our paper, joint with @pag_crypto @TheMijCipher and Opal Wright, to be presented at Oakland'23! In this paper, we give attacks against insecure instantiations of Fiat-Shamir, which could break soundness of several deployed blockchain protocols.

I guess it's time to make it official. I am really excited about moving to Bochum and joining @ruhrunibochum and @CASA_EXC.
