CyLab Seminar November 7, 2022 12:00pm — 1:00pm Speaker: VIVIAN FANG , Ph.D. Student, Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, University of California, Berkeley https://www.vivi.sh/ Towards Practical Secure Computation As the world becomes more security conscious, we have seen a surge of work in the field of secure computation. In this talk, I will discuss work on improving the usability and practicality of secure computation. First, I will present CostCO (EuroS&P’22), an automatic cost modeling framework for secure multi-party computation (MPC) protocols. Then, I will discuss the hurdles of deploying cryptographic systems like MPC that rely on the assumption of distributed trust and propose a framework that can bootstrap distributed-trust applications (to appear at HotNets’22). — Vivian Fang is a fourth-year computer science graduate student at UC Berkeley advised by Raluca Ada Popa. Her interests are broadly in security and systems. She is grateful to be supported by an NSF-GRFP fellowship. Vivian completed my B.S. in Electrical Engineering & Computer Science at UC Berkeley, where she worked with Scott Shenker, Aurojit Panda, and Justine Sherry in NetSys.
