Certificates, Revocation and the new gTLD's Oh My!
CASC member Dan Timpson's discussion of certificates, revocation and the new gTLDs at ICANN in July 2013
CAs And The New Paradigm Shift
The document discusses several proposals to improve SSL certificate security standards, including Certificate Transparency (CT), Certificate Authority Authorization (CAA), and public key pinning. CT aims to prevent misissued certificates by logging all certificates and allowing public audits. CAA allows domain owners to specify which CAs are authorized to issue certificates for their domain. Key pinning reduces the threat surface by having browsers only accept certificates from pre-approved CAs for a given site. While these proposals enhance security, there are also challenges to their adoption and deployment across the existing CA ecosystem. Overall the document presents an optimistic view that ongoing improvements through industry collaboration can strengthen SSL/TLS security over time.
CA Self Regulation
This document summarizes the chronology of frameworks for CA self-governance from 1995-2013. It discusses the CA/Browser Forum guidelines, WebTrust program for CAs, baseline requirements, and efforts of the CA Security Council to advance security. The path ahead involves addressing SSL/TLS vulnerabilities, improving audit coordination, and increasing public education on secure SSL/TLS implementation.
New Window of Opportunity
DigiCert supports the concept of certificate transparency which provides insight into issued SSL certificates and better remediation. Certificate transparency logs all certificates issued and enables fast detection of mis-issued certificates. While DigiCert has already implemented certificate transparency, questions remain regarding log security, privacy, and exemptions that require discussion before industry-wide adoption. Overall, certificate transparency enhances security without introducing unintended consequences.

High performance Serverless Java on AWS- GoTo Amsterdam 2024
Java is for many years one of the most popular programming languages, but it used to have hard times in the Serverless community. Java is known for its high cold start times and high memory footprint, comparing to other programming languages like Node.js and Python. In this talk I'll look at the general best practices and techniques we can use to decrease memory consumption, cold start times for Java Serverless development on AWS including GraalVM (Native Image) and AWS own offering SnapStart based on Firecracker microVM snapshot and restore and CRaC (Coordinated Restore at Checkpoint) runtime hooks. I'll also provide a lot of benchmarking on Lambda functions trying out various deployment package sizes, Lambda memory settings, Java compilation options and HTTP (a)synchronous clients and measure their impact on cold and warm start times.

Mutation Testing for Task-Oriented Chatbots
Conversational agents, or chatbots, are increasingly used to access all sorts of services using natural language. While open-domain chatbots - like ChatGPT - can converse on any topic, task-oriented chatbots - the focus of this paper - are designed for specific tasks, like booking a flight, obtaining customer support, or setting an appointment. Like any other software, task-oriented chatbots need to be properly tested, usually by defining and executing test scenarios (i.e., sequences of user-chatbot interactions). However, there is currently a lack of methods to quantify the completeness and strength of such test scenarios, which can lead to low-quality tests, and hence to buggy chatbots.
To fill this gap, we propose adapting mutation testing (MuT) for task-oriented chatbots. To this end, we introduce a set of mutation operators that emulate faults in chatbot designs, an architecture that enables MuT on chatbots built using heterogeneous technologies, and a practical realisation as an Eclipse plugin. Moreover, we evaluate the applicability, effectiveness and efficiency of our approach on open-source chatbots, with promising results.

Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.

GNSS spoofing via SDR (Criptored Talks 2024)
In the realm of cybersecurity, offensive security practices act as a critical shield. By simulating real-world attacks in a controlled environment, these techniques expose vulnerabilities before malicious actors can exploit them. This proactive approach allows manufacturers to identify and fix weaknesses, significantly enhancing system security.
This presentation delves into the development of a system designed to mimic Galileo's Open Service signal using software-defined radio (SDR) technology. We'll begin with a foundational overview of both Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) and the intricacies of digital signal processing.
The presentation culminates in a live demonstration. We'll showcase the manipulation of Galileo's Open Service pilot signal, simulating an attack on various software and hardware systems. This practical demonstration serves to highlight the potential consequences of unaddressed vulnerabilities, emphasizing the importance of offensive security practices in safeguarding critical infrastructure.
