USENIX Security still has a few open slots for Lightning Talks! Please signup and help make this already great session even better! There will be prizes... usenix.org/conference/use…

Congrats to my student Stephen Herwig for making the paper he led “Achieving Keyless CDNs with Conclaves” reproducible! Conclaves are containers of enclaves, allowing legacy apps (even multi-process with shared memory) to be deployed in secure enclaves. Joint work with Christina Garman

Congratulations!

Excited to announce that registration is open for GREPSEC V -- a workshop for early-stage grad students doing research in security and privacy who come from underrepresented populations. Women/NB/gender minorities, BIPOC, LGBTQ+, etc. grepsec.github.io

Our survey of SGX attacks is out! Come learn about how SGX fails in real life. Check out our website sgx.fail including attacks on Secret Network and CyberLink PowerDVD.

Excited to finally release the paper we've been working on that explores the challenges of using SGX for real world applications! tl;dr, it's very hard, post-compromise recovery is hard, and we can leak secrets. Also a great resource for learning about SGX attacks and defenses!

Please apply and join us, in person this year!

Apply to attend GREPSEC VI! USENIX is hosting the sixth GREPSEC workshop on August 8, 2023 in Anaheim, CA, co-located with USENIX Security '23 and SOUPS 2023. Applications are due May 24: bit.ly/grepsecvi #usesec23 #soups2023 Symposium on Usable Privacy and Security

Congrats to Arushi Arora for successfully defending her PhD today! (My first student!) If you haven't seen it, checkout her great work on improving the security/privacy of Tor with our Bento architecture. Very proud of the work she's done and great things she'll do in the future!

Congrats to my co-authors Eran Tromer, Ian Miers, Christina Garman, Madars Virza 🛡, Allesandro Chiesa, Eli Ben-Sasson for winning a “test of time” award at IEEE S&P for Zerocash!

The Zerocash paper has won a Test of Time award from IEEE to recognize its substantial, lasting, broad, and currently relevant impact on computer science.

A great summary of the Zerocash/Zcash origin story. Truly humbled and grateful to have been a part of this, and appreciative of IEEE S&P for the recognition.

Please consider submitting to FC this year! Pedro Moreno-Sanchez and I are excited to be chairing, and we need your papers to build a great program!

Embarking on a new project that needs physical access to an H100 GPU. Any chance anyone is willing to let us borrow one (we promise to return it), in exchange for a security exploration into the land of confidential computing? If so, DM me for further details. Thanks :)

libzerocoin v0.1alpha is now public. Enjoy. github.com/Zerocoin/libze…. #zerocoin #bitcoin
