Secure multiparty computationis about jointly computing a function while keeping each parties inputs secret. This comes off as an esoteric area of cryptography, but the goal ofthis talk is to introduce you to the core concepts through a history of thetopic. I will conclude by demoing an implementation of an example protocol I implemented.
Matt Cheung started developing his interest in cryptography during an internship in 2011. He worked on implementation of a secure multi-party protocol by adding elliptic curve support to an existingsecure text pattern matching protocol. From this experience he has given talks and workshops at the Boston Application Security Conference and the DEFCON Crypto and Privacy Village. Twitter handle of presenter(s): nullpsifer
