abstract: For the last several years, speed improvements in computing come mainly from increasing parallelism. Imperative programming, however, makes parallelization very difficult due to the many possible dependencies implied by effects. For decades, pure functional programming has held the promise of parallel execution while retaining the very simple semantics that enables practical, rigorous reasoning. This […]
abstract: Jesse has been using Rust to write a PAM module. He will tell us about what he has learned about working with Rust, and about getting Rust’s lifetime-checking to mesh with external C functions. bio: Jesse Hallett is a research engineer at Galois. He has extensive experience in web and high-level programming; but has […]
Earlier this month, the Ninth Annual Voting and Elections Summit examined the most critical and persistent issues surrounding U.S. elections and voter participation. Joe Kiniry, Galois’ election systems expert, gave a talk on the promises of technology to increase the transparency and trustworthiness of elections. Dr. Kiniry discussed the trade-offs that election officials face when […]
Dr. David Archer, our cryptography research lead, and Prof. Kurt Rolloff of the New Jersey Institute of Technology recently wrote an article for the IEEE Security and Privacy magazine on the topic of computing on sensitive, encrypted data without decrypting it. The new, groundbreaking process of computing on encrypted data has major implications for businesses that would […]
Galois helped demonstrate security vulnerabilities in modern automobiles and small UAVs as part of a “60 Minutes” profile of DARPA. We also demonstrated our secure UAV autopilot technology as an alternative to the currently available software systems that are prone to remote takeovers and other security vulnerabilities. Watch the quadcopter demo below: The world’s most […]
abstract: Idris is a pure functional language with full dependent types. In this series of tech talks, Idris contributor David Christiansen will provide an introduction to programming in Idris as well as using its development tools. Topics to be covered include the basics of dependent types, embedding DSLs in Idris, Idris’s notion of type providers, […]

abstract: The statistical and algorithmic methods of artificial intelligence have led to impressive breakthroughs that have significantly empowered the domains of finance, marketing, imaging, biology and many others. At the same time, cybersecurity has continued to be a field with more and more advantage going to attackers yet minimal lasting contributions are made from the […]
Following up on our recent post, Block Ciphers, Homomorphically, we have some new results. In our previous post, we reported on two experiments: a single block-at-a-time evaluation of SIMON 64/128 computed with the HElib homomorphic encryption library, and a parallel, 1800 block-at-a-time evaluation of the same cipher. Our results on the latter have not changed: 1800 […]
