Application Domains

Here are a few examples of applications of research done in SECSI:

• Security of electronic voting schemes: the case of the Helios protocol, used in particular at University of Louvain-la-Neuve (2010) and at the International Association for Cryptographic Research (IACR).

• Security of the protocols involved in the TPM (Trusted Platform Module) chip, a chip present in most PC laptops today, and which is meant to act as a trusted base.

• Security of the European electronic passport—and the discovery of an attack on the French implementation of it.

• Intrusion detection with the Orchids tool: several interested partners, among which EADS Cassidian, Thales, Galois Inc. (USA), the French Direction Générale de l'Armement (DGA).
